Description

Hi,
I am using Swagger codegen 2.1.5 and generating client code for different languages. I am setting customized mustache from supporting file by extending swagger. As per my observationby default swagger looks for mustache template in resource/[language specific] folder. But if I change resource folder structure like resource/mustacheTemplates/[language specific] then it is failing to find the files. So to resolve this issues we required to override getFullTemplateFile method from DefaultGenerator to provide customized resource paths.

Is it possible to provide customized resource path from any additional property? It will save the efforts require to override getFullTemplateFile method.

Research direction

Start by reading DefaultGenerator and its getFullTemplateFile method, then trace how supporting-file templates are resolved from resource/[language specific]. The change would let an additional property define a custom resource path such as resource/mustacheTemplates/[language specific] and allow generated templates to resolve from it.
