Support @ApiImplicitParams at the class level

Feature request: Support the @ApiImplicitParams annotation at the class level. It was recently updated in swagger-core to be applicable to the class level.

We use this feature to add a parameter to every controller mapping asking for a special auth header: @ApiImplicitParams({@ApiImplicitParam(name = "Authorization", value = "Authorization token", required = true, dataType = "string", paramType = "header", defaultValue = "Bearer X")})

It would be handy to annotate the controller and get this automatically on every endpoint.

For now we have created a custom annotation to at least make our controller code look cleaner:

@Inherited
@Documented
@Target(ElementType.METHOD)
@Retention(RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME)
@ApiImplicitParams({@ApiImplicitParam(name = "Authorization", value = "Authorization token", required = true, dataType = "string", paramType = "header", defaultValue = "Bearer X")})
public @interface AddSwaggerToken {
}

We then simply annotate all controller methods with @AddSwaggerToken

💯 agree. I think there is should be another issue for that…
