Array and files swagger

gem "apipie-rails", "~> 1.3"

Config

api! "Create a new post (multipart/form-data)"
  param :post, Hash, required: true, action_aware: true do
    param :title, String, desc: 'Title', required: true
    param :body, String, desc: 'Body', required: true
    param :region_id, :number, desc: 'Region ID', required: false, default_value: nil
    param :files, Array, of: ActionDispatch::Http::UploadedFile,
          desc: 'Array of files to be attached to the post (multipart/form-data array)',
          required: false, default_value: []
    param :images, Array, of: ActionDispatch::Http::UploadedFile,
          desc: 'Array of images to be attached to the post (multipart/form-data array)',
          required: false, default_value: []
  end

Have a look at files and images, they are wrong. Problem: it generates string fields and doesn't send them like value[] which is not recognized by rails server.

In full output you can see, that consumes contains application/x-www-form-urlencoded which is used by swagger as primary method too while it should be multipart/form-data for files.
