【knife4j报错】.springframework.context.ApplicationContextException: Failed to start bean ‘documentation

问题
Spring Boot 2.7.3版本引入依赖 springfox-boot-starter (Swagger 3.0) 后，启动容器会报错：

org.springframework.context.ApplicationContextException: Failed to start bean 'documentationPluginsBootstrapper'; nested exception is java.lang.NullPointerException

在你的项目里添加这个 bean ：（加在配置类里就可）

@Bean
public static BeanPostProcessor springfoxHandlerProviderBeanPostProcessor() {
    return new BeanPostProcessor() {
 
        @Override
        public Object postProcessAfterInitialization(Object bean, String beanName) throws BeansException {
            if (bean instanceof WebMvcRequestHandlerProvider || bean instanceof WebFluxRequestHandlerProvider) {
                customizeSpringfoxHandlerMappings(getHandlerMappings(bean));
            }
            return bean;
        }
 
        private <T extends RequestMappingInfoHandlerMapping> void customizeSpringfoxHandlerMappings(List<T> mappings) {
            List<T> copy = mappings.stream()
                    .filter(mapping -> mapping.getPatternParser() == null)
                    .collect(Collectors.toList());
            mappings.clear();
            mappings.addAll(copy);
        }
 
        @SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
        private List<RequestMappingInfoHandlerMapping> getHandlerMappings(Object bean) {
            try {
                Field field = ReflectionUtils.findField(bean.getClass(), "handlerMappings");
                field.setAccessible(true);
                return (List<RequestMappingInfoHandlerMapping>) field.get(bean);
            } catch (IllegalArgumentException | IllegalAccessException e) {
                throw new IllegalStateException(e);
            }
        }
    };

还要  必须加上 

spring:
  mvc:
    pathmatch:
      matching-strategy: ant_path_matcher

因为

Spring Boot 2.6 及以上版本默认的路径匹配策略有所改变，这可能和 Knife4j 产生兼容性问题。  你不加有可能看不到界面

最终我分享一个配置
