Missing "consumes" on controller method results in Content-Type set to */*

If for example a @PostMapping annotation on a RestController does not have the “consumes” variable set to anything, the org.springdoc.core.MethodAttributes.fillMethods method uses org.springframework.http.MediaType.ALL_VALUE as the value, which is */*.

This results in Spring throwing an exception saying java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Content-Type cannot contain wildcard type '*' in org.springframework.http.HttpHeaders.setContentType

Could it be possible that instead of using */*, you would instead fill the array with a set of MediaTypes so that one could choose in the Swagger-ui, or default to org.springframework.http.MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON_VALUE if the class is a RestController?

Hi @AlfSimen,

The default value if consumes is missing will be set to org.springframework.http.MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON_VALUE, in the next release. If its not enough, we can use an array with a set of default MediaTypes.

I agree this defaulting to */* is not ideal. In my case the AWS Gateway import tool doesn’t like that content type. At the very least we should be able to override this default value in some fashion.
