go-jsschema

JSON Schema for Go

SYNOPSIS

package schema_test

import (
  "log"

  "github.com/lestrrat-go/jsschema"
  "github.com/lestrrat-go/jsschema/validator"
)

func Example() {
  s, err := schema.ReadFile("schema.json")
  if err != nil {
    log.Printf("failed to read schema: %s", err)
    return
  }

  for name, pdef := range s.Properties {
    // Do what you will with `pdef`, which contain
    // Schema information for `name` property
    _ = name
    _ = pdef
  }

  // You can also validate an arbitrary piece of data
  var p interface{} // initialize using json.Unmarshal...
  v := validator.New(s)
  if err := v.Validate(p); err != nil {
    log.Printf("failed to validate data: %s", err)
  }
}

DESCRIPTION

This packages parses a JSON Schema file, and allows you to inspect, modify the schema, but does nothing more.

If you want to validate using the JSON Schema that you read using this package, look at go-jsval, which allows you to generate validators, so that you don't have to dynamically read in the JSON schema for each instance of your program.

In the same lines, this package does not really care about loading external schemas from various locations (it's just easier to just gather all the schemas in your local system). It is possible to do this via go-jsref if you really want to do it.

TODO

• Properly resolve ids and $refs (it works in simple cases, but elaborate scopes probably don't work)
