What this repository is
This repository contains sample JSON Schemas for various JSON-based formats found around the web.
There are many such formats, and this repository contains schemas for whatever formats I happened to stumble upon.
Existing schemas in this repository
This repository contains schemas for the following:
- JSON-RPC 2.0 (link to specification);
- GeoJSON (link to specification);
- SMD (link to specification);
- JSON Patch (link to specification);
- Avro Schema 1.7.4 (link to specification);
- JSON Home (link to specification);
- JSON Stat (link to specification).
- Swagger 1.2 (link to specification).
Note: these schemas are probably not perfect. See below.
How these schemas are written and tested
I use my toy site to check both the validity of the schema syntax, and the validation of data against these schemas.
This site uses my library, which I am fully confident about. But I am not that confident about the schemas themselves.
I have read the relevant specifications, but I certainly have missed some points in them, and as a result these schemas may not be accurate. Not to mention that some constraints expressed by these specifications are not enforceable by JSON Schema.
Requests and contributions
Both are welcome:
- if you stumble upon a JSON data format which you would like a JSON Schema for, feel free to open a feature request so that a schema be written for that format;
- if you spot an error on a schema (data which should validate but does not, or the opposite), you can provide sample data and the expected and actual results, using the site above; or you can submit a pull request to improve the schema itself;
- if, on the other hand, you have written a schema for an existing format, and wish to add it to this repository, you are welcome to open a pull request so that this schema be included in the examples. Provided that you are ready to comply to the...
