Adding authentication definitions to generated swagger files

[boosh]

My API requires authentication for all endpoints. This is defined in a config.yml file that I feed into Google Cloud Endpoints.

I generated a swagger spec from my service's .proto file, and then generated a javascript library for use on the web.

Do you have any plans to support swagger's API keys definitions, or should we monkey-patch them into generated libraries ourselves (if that's even an optionI)?

I had the same issue and I've been monkey patching.

@boosh, right now we don't support this since we don't emit OpenAPIv3 definitions. You're welcome to monkey patch it, or to take this opportunity to extend on the work of Ivan and help us by adding support for the subset of OpenAPIv3 you're interested in using. If you want some pointers on that I'm happy to help!

This exists in v2 as well: https://swagger.io/docs/specification/2-0/authentication/api-keys/

We'd need to add security field into grpc.gateway.protoc_gen_swagger.options.Operation. We'd also need to add security and securityDefinitions into grpc.gateway.protoc_gen_swagger.options.Swagger.

I hope this is what you had in mind :-)
