VistasSwagger bitwise enum flags handling
I have an enum like;
[Flags]
public enum MeteoType : ushort
{
Wind = 1 << 0,
Pressure = 1 << 1,
Temperature = 1 << 2,
Waves = 1 << 4,
Currents = 1 << 9,
Swell = 1 << 13,
WindWave = 1 << 14,
}
and I have a model;
public class Params
{
public List<MeteoType> Meteo { get; set; } = new List<MeteoType>()
{
MeteoType.Wind
};
....
}
In my controller method, I ask for this model from query as such;
public async Task<IActionResult> Get(int z, int x, int y, [FromQuery] Params parameters)
Which gives me this view in swagger:
I'm using List because it's a flag and I want to be able to choose multiple elements. The problem starts here. When I choose multiple elements the link is created like:
https://localhost:44311?Meteo=1&Meteo=2&Meteo=4&...
rather than
https://localhost:44311?Meteo=7&...
How can I make it so that link is generated by sum of enum values, rather than all of them one by one?

OpenAPI Specification does not support bitwise enum parameters. Your Meteo parameter needs to be defined as just type: integer in the OpenAPI definition, i.e. you need to tweak the annotations so that they produce type: integer instead of type: array for this parameter. The consumers will need to provide the correct summed value manually.
# OpenAPI definition generated from the code
openapi: 3.0.0
...
paths:
/something:
get:
parameters:
- in: query
name: Meteo
schema:
type: integer
example: 7
description: >-
One of the following values, or a sum of multiple values:
* 1 - Wind
* 2 - Pressure
* ...
For example, 7 means Wind (1) + Pressure (2) + Temperature (4).
Alternatively, you can try forking Swagger UI and change the code to send the selected list values as a single summed value instead of multi-value parameter.
