Install

Includes support for node.js/bun.js (ES Modules, TypeScript) and browsers (works
with CSP
unsafe-eval).

$3

``bash
npm install @hyperjump/json-schema
`

$3

This package uses the package.json "exports" field. TypeScript understands
"exports",
but you need to change a couple settings in your tsconfig.json for it to work.

`jsonc
"module": "Node16", // or "NodeNext"
"moduleResolution": "Node16", // or "NodeNext"
`

$3

The API for this library is divided into two categories: Stable and
Experimental. The Stable API follows semantic versioning, but the Experimental
API may have backward-incompatible changes between minor versions.

All experimental features are segregated into exports that include the word
"experimental" so you never accidentally depend on something that could change
or be removed in future releases.

Validation

$3

This library supports many versions of JSON Schema. Use the pattern
@hyperjump/json-schema/* to import the version you need.

`javascript
import { registerSchema, validate } from "@hyperjump/json-schema/draft-2020-12";
`

You can import support for additional versions as needed.

`javascript
import { registerSchema, validate } from "@hyperjump/json-schema/draft-2020-12";
import "@hyperjump/json-schema/draft-07";
`

Note: The default export (@hyperjump/json-schema) is reserved for v1 of
JSON Schema that will hopefully be released in near future.

Validate schema from JavaScript

`javascript
registerSchema({
$schema: "https://json-schema.org/draft/2020-12/schema",
type: "string"
}, "http://example.com/schemas/string");

const output = await validate("http://example.com/schemas/string", "foo");
if (output.valid) {
console.log("Instance is valid :-)");
} else {
console.log("Instance is invalid :-(");
}
`

Compile schema

If you need to validate multiple instances against the same schema, you can
compile the schema into a reusable validation function.

`javascript
const isString = await validate("http://example.com/schemas/string");
const output1 = isString("foo");
const output2 = isString(42);
`

File-based and web-based schemas

Schemas that are available on the web can be loaded automatically without
needing to load them manually.

`javascript
const output = await validate("http://example.com/schemas/string", "foo");
`

When running on the server, you can also load schemas directly from the
filesystem. When fetching from the file system, there are limitations for
security reasons. You can only reference a schema identified by a file URI
scheme (file:///path/to/my/schemas) from another schema identified by a file
URI scheme. Also, a schema is not allowed to self-identify ($id) with a
file: URI scheme.

`javascript
const output = await validate(file://${__dirname}/string.schema.json, "foo");
`

If the schema URI is relative, the base URI in the browser is the browser
location and the base URI on the server is the current working directory. This
is the preferred way to work with file-based schemas on the server.

`javascript
const output = await validate(./string.schema.json, "foo");
`

You can add/modify/remove support for any URI scheme using the plugin
system provided by
@hyperjump/browser.

Format

Format validation support needs to be explicitly loaded by importing
@hyperjump/json-schema/formats. Once loaded, it depends on the dialect whether
validation is enabled by default or not. You should explicitly enable/disable it
with the setShouldValidateFormat function.

The hostname, idn-hostname, and idn-email validators are fairly large. If
you don't need support for those formats and bundle size is a concern, you can
use @hyperjump/json-schema/formats-lite instead to leave out support for those
formats.

`javascript
import { registerSchema, validate } from "@hyperjump/json-schema/draft-2020-12";
import { setShouldValidateFormat } from "@hyperjump/json-schema/formats";

const schemaUri = "https://example.com/number";
registerSchema({
"type": "string",
"format": "date"
}, schemaUri);

setShouldValidateFormat(true);
const output = await validate(schemaUri, "Feb 29, 2031"); // { valid: false }
`

OpenAPI

The OpenAPI 3.0 and 3.1 and 3.2 meta-schemas are pre-loaded and the OpenAPI JSON
Schema dialects for each of those versions is supported. A document with a
Content-Type of application/openapi+json (web) or a file extension of
openapi.json (filesystem) is understood as an OpenAPI document.

Use the pattern @hyperjump/json-schema/* to import the version you need. The
available versions are openapi-3-0 for 3.0, openapi-3-1 for 3.1, and
openapi-3-2 for 3.2.

`javascript
import { validate } from "@hyperjump/json-schema/openapi-3-2";


// Validate an OpenAPI 3.2 document
const output = await validate("https://spec.openapis.org/oas/3.2/schema-base", openapi);

// Validate an instance against a schema in an OpenAPI 3.2 document
const output = await validate("./example.openapi.json#/components/schemas/foo", 42);
`

YAML support isn't built in, but you can add it by writing a
MediaTypePlugin. You can
use the one at lib/openapi.js as an example and replace the JSON parts with
YAML.

Media types

This library uses media types to determine how to parse a retrieved document. It
will never assume the retrieved document is a schema. By default it's configured
to accept documents with a application/schema+json Content-Type header (web)
or a .schema.json file extension (filesystem).

You can add/modify/remove support for any media-type using the plugin
system provided by
@hyperjump/browser. The following example shows how to add support for JSON
Schemas written in YAML.

`javascript
import YAML from "yaml";
import contentTypeParser from "content-type";
import { addMediaTypePlugin } from "@hyperjump/browser";
import { buildSchemaDocument } from "@hyperjump/json-schema/experimental";


addMediaTypePlugin("application/schema+yaml", {
parse: async (response) => {
const contentType = contentTypeParser.parse(response.headers.get("content-type") ?? "");
const contextDialectId = contentType.parameters.schema ?? contentType.parameters.profile;

const foo = YAML.parse(await response.text());
return buildSchemaDocument(foo, response.url, contextDialectId);
},
fileMatcher: (path) => path.endsWith(".schema.yml")
});
`

$3

These are available from any of the exports that refer to a version of JSON
Schema, such as @hyperjump/json-schema/draft-2020-12.

* registerSchema: (schema: object, retrievalUri?: string, defaultDialectId?: string) => void

Add a schema the local schema registry. When this schema is needed, it will
be loaded from the register rather than the filesystem or network. If a
schema with the same identifier is already registered, an exception will be
throw.
* unregisterSchema: (uri: string) => void

Remove a schema from the local schema registry.
* getAllRegisteredSchemaUris: () => string[]

This function returns the URIs of all registered schemas
* hasSchema: (uri: string) => boolean

Check if a schema with the given URI is already registered.
* _(deprecated)_ addSchema: (schema: object, retrievalUri?: string, defaultDialectId?: string) => void

Load a schema manually rather than fetching it from the filesystem or over
the network. Any schema already registered with the same identifier will be
replaced with no warning.
* validate: (schemaURI: string, instance: any, outputFormat: ValidationOptions | OutputFormat = FLAG) => Promise\

Validate an instance against a schema. This function is curried to allow
compiling the schema once and applying it to multiple instances.
* validate: (schemaURI: string) => Promise\<(instance: any, outputFormat: ValidationOptions | OutputFormat = FLAG) => OutputUnit>

Compiling a schema to a validation function.
* FLAG: "FLAG"

An identifier for the FLAG output format as defined by the 2019-09 and
2020-12 specifications.
* InvalidSchemaError: Error & { output: OutputUnit }

This error is thrown if the schema being compiled is found to be invalid.
The output field contains an OutputUnit with information about the
error. You can use the setMetaSchemaOutputFormat configuration to set the
output format that is returned in output.
* setMetaSchemaOutputFormat: (outputFormat: OutputFormat) => void

Set the output format used for validating schemas.
* getMetaSchemaOutputFormat: () => OutputFormat

Get the output format used for validating schemas.
* setShouldMetaValidate: (isEnabled: boolean) => void

Enable or disable validating schemas.
* getShouldMetaValidate: (isEnabled: boolean) => void

Determine if validating schemas is enabled.

Type Definitions

The following types are used in the above definitions

* OutputFormat: FLAG

Only the FLAG output format is part of the Stable API. Additional output
formats are included as part of the Experimental API.
* OutputUnit: { valid: boolean }

Output is an experimental feature of the JSON Schema specification. There
may be additional fields present in the OutputUnit, but only the valid
property should be considered part of the Stable API.
* ValidationOptions:

* outputFormat?: OutputFormat
* plugins?: EvaluationPlugin[]

Bundling

$3

You can bundle schemas with external references into a single deliverable using
the official JSON Schema bundling process introduced in the 2020-12
specification. Given a schema with external references, any external schemas
will be embedded in the schema resulting in a Compound Schema Document with all
the schemas necessary to evaluate the given schema in a single JSON document.

The bundling process allows schemas to be embedded without needing to modify any
references which means you get the same output details whether you validate the
bundle or the original unbundled schemas.

`javascript
import { registerSchema } from "@hyperjump/json-schema/draft-2020-12";
import { bundle } from "@hyperjump/json-schema/bundle";


registerSchema({
"$schema": "https://json-schema.org/draft/2020-12/schema",

"type": "object",
"properties": {
"foo": { "$ref": "/string" }
}
}, "https://example.com/main");

registerSchema({
"$schema": "https://json-schema.org/draft/2020-12/schema",

"type": "string"
}, "https://example.com/string");

const bundledSchema = await bundle("https://example.com/main"); // {
// "$schema": "https://json-schema.org/draft/2020-12/schema",
//
// "type": "object",
// "properties": {
// "foo": { "$ref": "/string" }
// },
//
// "$defs": {
// "string": {
// "$id": "https://example.com/string",
// "type": "string"
// }
// }
// }
`

$3

These are available from the @hyperjump/json-schema/bundle export.

* bundle: (uri: string, options: Options) => Promise\

Create a bundled schema starting with the given schema. External schemas
will be fetched from the filesystem, the network, or the local schema
registry as needed.

Options:
* alwaysIncludeDialect: boolean (default: false) -- Include dialect even
when it isn't strictly needed
* definitionNamingStrategy: "uri" | "uuid" (default: "uri") -- By default
the name used in definitions for embedded schemas will match the
identifier of the embedded schema. Alternatively, you can use a UUID
instead of the schema's URI.
* externalSchemas: string[] (default: []) -- A list of schemas URIs that
are available externally and should not be included in the bundle.

Experimental

Change the validation output format

The FLAG output format isn't very informative. You can change the output
format used for validation to get more information about failures. The official
output format is still evolving, so these may change or be replaced in the
future. This implementation currently supports the BASIC and DETAILED output
formats.

`javascript
import { BASIC } from "@hyperjump/json-schema/experimental";


const output = await validate("https://example.com/schema1", 42, BASIC);
`

Change the schema validation output format

The output format used for validating schemas can be changed as well.

`javascript
import { validate, setMetaSchemaOutputFormat } from "@hyperjump/json-schema/draft-2020-12";
import { BASIC } from "@hyperjump/json-schema/experimental";


setMetaSchemaOutputFormat(BASIC);
try {
const output = await validate("https://example.com/invalid-schema");
} catch (error) {
console.log(error.output);
}
`

$3

In order to create and use a custom keyword, you need to define your keyword's
behavior, create a vocabulary that includes that keyword, and then create a
dialect that includes your vocabulary.

Schemas are represented using the
@hyperjump/browser package. You'll
use that API to traverse schemas. @hyperjump/browser uses async generators to
iterate over arrays and objects. If you like using higher order functions like
map/filter/reduce, see
@hyperjump/pact for utilities for
working with generators and async generators.

`javascript
import { registerSchema, validate } from "@hyperjump/json-schema/draft-2020-12";
import { addKeyword, defineVocabulary, Validation } from "@hyperjump/json-schema/experimental";
import * as Browser from "@hyperjump/browser";


// Define a keyword that's an array of schemas that are applied sequentially
// using implication: A -> B -> C -> D
addKeyword({
id: "https://example.com/keyword/implication",

compile: async (schema, ast) => {
const subSchemas = [];
for await (const subSchema of Browser.iter(schema)) {
subSchemas.push(Validation.compile(subSchema, ast));
}
return subSchemas;

// Alternative using @hyperjump/pact
// return pipe(
// Browser.iter(schema),
// asyncMap((subSchema) => Validation.compile(subSchema, ast)),
// asyncCollectArray
// );
},

interpret: (implies, instance, context) => {
return implies.reduce((valid, schema) => {
return !valid || Validation.interpret(schema, instance, context);
}, true);
}
});

// Create a vocabulary with this keyword and call it "implies"
defineVocabulary("https://example.com/vocab/logic", {
"implies": "https://example.com/keyword/implication"
});

// Create a vocabulary schema for this vocabulary
registerSchema({
"$id": "https://example.com/meta/logic",
"$schema": "https://json-schema.org/draft/2020-12/schema",

"$dynamicAnchor": "meta",
"properties": {
"implies": {
"type": "array",
"items": { "$dynamicRef": "meta" },
"minItems": 2
}
}
});

// Create a dialect schema adding this vocabulary to the standard JSON Schema
// vocabularies
registerSchema({
"$id": "https://example.com/dialect/logic",
"$schema": "https://json-schema.org/draft/2020-12/schema",

"$vocabulary": {
"https://json-schema.org/draft/2020-12/vocab/core": true,
"https://json-schema.org/draft/2020-12/vocab/applicator": true,
"https://json-schema.org/draft/2020-12/vocab/unevaluated": true,
"https://json-schema.org/draft/2020-12/vocab/validation": true,
"https://json-schema.org/draft/2020-12/vocab/meta-data": true,
"https://json-schema.org/draft/2020-12/vocab/format-annotation": true,
"https://json-schema.org/draft/2020-12/vocab/content": true
"https://example.com/vocab/logic": true
},

"$dynamicAnchor": "meta",

"allOf": [
{ "$ref": "https://json-schema.org/draft/2020-12/schema" },
{ "$ref": "/meta/logic" }
]
});

// Use your dialect to validate a JSON instance
registerSchema({
"$schema": "https://example.com/dialect/logic",

"type": "number",
"implies": [
{ "minimum": 10 },
{ "multipleOf": 2 }
]
}, "https://example.com/schema1");
const output = await validate("https://example.com/schema1", 42);
`

$3

Custom formats work similarly to keywords. You define a format handler and then
associate that format handler with the format keyword that applies to the
dialects you're targeting.

`JavaScript
import { registerSchema, validate, setShouldValidateFormat } from "@hyperjump/json-schema/draft-2020-12";
import { addFormat, setFormatHandler } from "@hyperjump/json-schema/experimental";

const isoDateFormatUri = "https://example.com/format/iso-8601-date";

// Add the iso-date format handler
addFormat({
id: isoDateFormatUri,
handler: (date) => new Date(date).toISOString() === date
});

// Add the "iso-date" format to the 2020-12 version of format
setFormatHandler("https://json-schema.org/keyword/draft-2020-12/format", "iso-date", isoDateFormatUri);
setFormatHandler("https://json-schema.org/keyword/draft-2020-12/format-assertion", "iso-date", isoDateFormatUri);

// Optional: Add the "iso-date" format to other dialects
setFormatHandler("https://json-schema.org/keyword/draft-2019-09/format", "iso-date", isoDateFormatUri);
setFormatHandler("https://json-schema.org/keyword/draft-2019-09/format-assertion", "iso-date", isoDateFormatUri);
setFormatHandler("https://json-schema.org/keyword/draft-07/format", "iso-date", isoDateFormatUri);
setFormatHandler("https://json-schema.org/keyword/draft-06/format", "iso-date", isoDateFormatUri);
setFormatHandler("https://json-schema.org/keyword/draft-04/format", "iso-date", isoDateFormatUri);

const schemaUri = "https://example.com/main";
registerSchema({
"$schema": "https://json-schema.org/draft/2020-12/schema",

"type": "string",
"format": "iso-date"
}, schemaUri);

setShouldValidateFormat(true);
const output = await validate(schemaUri, "Feb 28, 2031"); // { valid: false }
`

$3

You can use a custom meta-schema to restrict users to a subset of JSON Schema
functionality. This example requires that no unknown keywords are used in the
schema.

`javascript
registerSchema({
"$id": "https://example.com/meta-schema1",
"$schema": "https://json-schema.org/draft/2020-12/schema",

"$vocabulary": {
"https://json-schema.org/draft/2020-12/vocab/core": true,
"https://json-schema.org/draft/2020-12/vocab/applicator": true,
"https://json-schema.org/draft/2020-12/vocab/unevaluated": true,
"https://json-schema.org/draft/2020-12/vocab/validation": true,
"https://json-schema.org/draft/2020-12/vocab/meta-data": true,
"https://json-schema.org/draft/2020-12/vocab/format-annotation": true,
"https://json-schema.org/draft/2020-12/vocab/content": true
},

"$dynamicAnchor": "meta",

"$ref": "https://json-schema.org/draft/2020-12/schema",
"unevaluatedProperties": false
});

registerSchema({
$schema: "https://example.com/meta-schema1",
type: "number",
foo: 42
}, "https://example.com/schema1");

const output = await validate("https://example.com/schema1", 42); // Expect InvalidSchemaError
`

$3

EvaluationPlugins allow you to hook into the validation process for various
purposes. There are hooks for before an after schema evaluation and before and
after keyword evaluation. (See the API section for the full interface) The
following is a simple example to record all the schema locations that were
evaluated. This could be used as part of a solution for determining test
coverage for a schema.

`JavaScript
import { registerSchema, validate } from "@hyperjump/json-schema/draft-2020-12";
import { BASIC } from "@hyperjump/json-schema/experimental.js";

class EvaluatedKeywordsPlugin {
constructor() {
this.schemaLocations = new Set();
}

beforeKeyword([, schemaUri]) {
this.schemaLocations.add(schemaUri);
}
}

registerSchema({
$schema: "https://json-schema.org/draft/2020-12/schema",
type: "object",
properties: {
foo: { type: "number" },
bar: { type: "boolean" }
},
required: ["foo"]
}, "https://schemas.hyperjump.io/main");

const evaluatedKeywordPlugin = new EvaluatedKeywordsPlugin();

await validate("https://schemas.hyperjump.io/main", { foo: 42 }, {
outputFormat: BASIC,
plugins: [evaluatedKeywordPlugin]
});

console.log(evaluatedKeywordPlugin.schemaLocations);
// Set(4) {
// 'https://schemas.hyperjump.io/main#/type',
// 'https://schemas.hyperjump.io/main#/properties',
// 'https://schemas.hyperjump.io/main#/properties/foo/type',
// 'https://schemas.hyperjump.io/main#/required'
// }

// NOTE: #/properties/bar is not in the list because the instance doesn't include that property.
`

$3

These are available from the @hyperjump/json-schema/experimental export.

* addKeyword: (keywordHandler: Keyword) => void

Define a keyword for use in a vocabulary.

* Keyword: object
* id: string

A URI that uniquely identifies the keyword. It should use a domain you
own to avoid conflict with keywords defined by others.
* compile: (schema: Browser, ast: AST, parentSchema: Browser) => Promise\

This function takes the keyword value, does whatever preprocessing it
can on it without an instance, and returns the result. The returned
value will be passed to the interpret function. The ast parameter
is needed for compiling sub-schemas. The parentSchema parameter is
primarily useful for looking up the value of an adjacent keyword that
might effect this one.
* interpret: (compiledKeywordValue: any, instance: JsonNode, context: ValidationContext) => boolean

This function takes the value returned by the compile function and
the instance value that is being validated and returns whether the
value is valid or not. The other parameters are only needed for
validating sub-schemas.
* simpleApplicator?: boolean

Some applicator keywords just apply schemas and don't do any
validation of its own. In these cases, it isn't helpful to include
them in BASIC output. This flag is used to trim those nodes from the
output.
* annotation?: (compiledKeywordValue: any) => any | undefined

If the keyword is an annotation, it will need to implement this
function to return the annotation.
* plugin?: EvaluationPlugin

If the keyword needs to track state during the evaluation process, you
can include an EvaluationPlugin that will get added only when this
keyword is present in the schema.

* ValidationContext: object
* ast: AST
* plugins: EvaluationPlugins[]
* addFormat: (formatHandler: Format) => void

Add a format handler.

* Format: object
* id: string

A URI that uniquely identifies the format. It should use a domain you
own to avoid conflict with keywords defined by others.
* handler: (value: any) => boolean

A function that takes the value and returns a boolean determining if
it passes validation for the format.
* setFormatHandler: (keywordUri: string, formatName: string, formatUri: string) => void

Add support for a format to the specified keyword.
* removeFormatHandler: (keywordUri, formatName) => void

Remove support for a format from the specified keyword.
* defineVocabulary: (id: string, keywords: { [keyword: string]: string }) => void

Define a vocabulary that maps keyword name to keyword URIs defined using
addKeyword.
* getKeywordId: (keywordName: string, dialectId: string) => string

Get the identifier for a keyword by its name.
* getKeyword: (keywordId: string) => Keyword

Get a keyword object by its URI. This is useful for building non-validation
tooling.
* getKeywordByName: (keywordName: string, dialectId: string) => Keyword

Get a keyword object by its name. This is useful for building non-validation
tooling.
* getKeywordName: (dialectId: string, keywordId: string) => string

Determine a keyword's name given its URI a dialect URI. This is useful when
defining a keyword that depends on the value of another keyword (such as how
contains depends on minContains and maxContains).
* loadDialect: (dialectId: string, dialect: { [vocabularyId: string] }, allowUnknownKeywords: boolean = false) => void

Define a dialect. In most cases, dialects are loaded automatically from the
$vocabulary keyword in the meta-schema. The only time you would need to
load a dialect manually is if you're creating a distinct version of JSON
Schema rather than creating a dialect of an existing version of JSON Schema.
* unloadDialect: (dialectId: string) => void

Remove a dialect. You shouldn't need to use this function. It's called for
you when you call unregisterSchema.
* Validation: Keyword

A Keyword object that represents a "validate" operation. You would use this
for compiling and evaluating sub-schemas when defining a custom keyword.

* getSchema: (uri: string, browser?: Browser) => Promise\

Get a schema by it's URI taking the local schema registry into account.
* buildSchemaDocument: (schema: SchemaObject | boolean, retrievalUri?: string, contextDialectId?: string) => SchemaDocument

Build a SchemaDocument from a JSON-compatible value. You might use this if
you're creating a custom media type plugin, such as supporting JSON Schemas
in YAML.
* canonicalUri: (schema: Browser) => string

Returns a URI for the schema.
* toSchema: (schema: Browser, options: ToSchemaOptions) => object

Get a raw schema from a Schema Document.

* ToSchemaOptions: object

* contextDialectId: string (default: "") -- If the dialect of the schema
matches this value, the $schema keyword will be omitted.
* includeDialect: "auto" | "always" | "never" (default: "auto") -- If
"auto", $schema will only be included if it differs from
contextDialectId.
* contextUri: string (default: "") -- $ids will be relative to this
URI.
* includeEmbedded: boolean (default: true) -- If false, embedded schemas
will be unbundled from the schema.
* compile: (schema: Browser) => Promise\

Return a compiled schema. This is useful if you're creating tooling for
something other than validation.
* interpret: (schema: CompiledSchema, instance: JsonNode, outputFormat: OutputFormat = BASIC) => OutputUnit

A curried function for validating an instance against a compiled schema.
This can be useful for creating custom output formats.

* OutputFormat: FLAG | BASIC

In addition to the FLAG output format in the Stable API, the Experimental
API includes support for the BASIC format as specified in the 2019-09
specification (with some minor customizations). This implementation doesn't
include annotations or human readable error messages. The output can be
processed to create human readable error messages as needed.

* EvaluationPlugin: object
* beforeSchema?(url: string, instance: JsonNode, context: Context): void
* beforeKeyword?(keywordNode: CompiledSchemaNode, instance: JsonNode, context: Context, schemaContext: Context, keyword: Keyword): void
* afterKeyword?(keywordNode: CompiledSchemaNode, instance: JsonNode, context: Context, valid: boolean, schemaContext: Context, keyword: Keyword): void
* afterSchema?(url: string, instance: JsonNode, context: Context, valid: boolean): void

Instance API (experimental)

These functions are available from the
@hyperjump/json-schema/instance/experimental export.

This library uses JsonNode objects to represent instances. You'll work with
these objects if you create a custom keyword.

This API uses generators to iterate over arrays and objects. If you like using
higher order functions like map/filter/reduce, see
@hyperjump/pact for utilities for
working with generators and async generators.

* fromJs: (value: any, uri?: string) => JsonNode

Construct a JsonNode from a JavaScript value.
* cons: (baseUri: string, pointer: string, value: any, type: string, children: JsonNode[], parent?: JsonNode) => JsonNode

Construct a JsonNode. This is used internally. You probably want fromJs
instead.
* get: (url: string, instance: JsonNode) => JsonNode

Apply a same-resource reference to a JsonNode.
* uri: (instance: JsonNode) => string

Returns a URI for the value the JsonNode represents.
* value: (instance: JsonNode) => any

Returns the value the JsonNode represents.
* has: (key: string, instance: JsonNode) => boolean

Returns whether or not "key" is a property name in a JsonNode that
represents an object.
* typeOf: (instance: JsonNode) => string

The JSON type of the JsonNode. In addition to the standard JSON types,
there's also the property type that indicates a property name/value pair
in an object.
* step: (key: string, instance: JsonNode) => JsonType

Similar to indexing into a object or array using the [] operator.
* iter: (instance: JsonNode) => Generator\

Iterate over the items in the array that the JsonNode represents.
* entries: (instance: JsonNode) => Generator\<[JsonNode, JsonNode]>

Similar to Object.entries, but yields JsonNodes for keys and values.
* values: (instance: JsonNode) => Generator\

Similar to Object.values, but yields JsonNodes for values.

Similar to Object.keys, but yields JsonNodes for keys.
* length: (instance: JsonNode) => number

Similar to Array.prototype.length.

Annotations (experimental)

JSON Schema is for annotating JSON instances as well as validating them. This
module provides utilities for working with JSON documents annotated with JSON
Schema.

An annotated JSON document is represented as a
(JsonNode)[#instance-api-experimental] AST. You can use this AST to traverse
the data structure and get annotations for the values it represents.

`javascript
import { registerSchema } from "@hyperjump/json-schema/draft/2020-12";
import { annotate } from "@hyperjump/json-schema/annotations/experimental";
import * as AnnotatedInstance from "@hyperjump/json-schema/annotated-instance/experimental";


const schemaId = "https://example.com/foo";
const dialectId = "https://json-schema.org/draft/2020-12/schema";

registerSchema({
"$schema": dialectId,

"title": "Person",
"unknown": "foo",

"type": "object",
"properties": {
"name": {
"$ref": "#/$defs/name",
"deprecated": true
},
"givenName": {
"$ref": "#/$defs/name",
"title": "Given Name"
},
"familyName": {
"$ref": "#/$defs/name",
"title": "Family Name"
}
},

"$defs": {
"name": {
"type": "string",
"title": "Name"
}
}
}, schemaId);

const instance = await annotate(schemaId, {
name: "Jason Desrosiers",
givenName: "Jason",
familyName: "Desrosiers"
});

// Get the title of the instance
const titles = AnnotatedInstance.annotation(instance, "title", dialectId); // => ["Person"]

// Unknown keywords are collected as annotations
const unknowns = AnnotatedInstance.annotation(instance, "unknown", dialectId); // => ["foo"]

// The type keyword doesn't produce annotations
const types = AnnotatedInstance.annotation(instance, "type", dialectId); // => []

// Get the title of each of the properties in the object
for (const [propertyNameNode, propertyInstance] of AnnotatedInstance.entries(instance)) {
const propertyName = AnnotatedInstance.value(propertyName);
console.log(propertyName, AnnotatedInstance.annotation(propertyInstance, "title", dialectId));
}

// List all locations in the instance that are deprecated
for (const deprecated of AnnotatedInstance.annotatedWith(instance, "deprecated", dialectId)) {
if (AnnotatedInstance.annotation(deprecated, "deprecated", dialectId)[0]) {
logger.warn(The value at '${deprecated.pointer}' has been deprecated.); // => (Example) "WARN: The value at '/name' has been deprecated."
}
}

These are available from the @hyperjump/json-schema/annotations/experimental
export.

* annotate: (schemaUri: string, instance: any, outputFormat: OutputFormat = BASIC) => Promise\

Annotate an instance using the given schema. The function is curried to
allow compiling the schema once and applying it to multiple instances. This
may throw an InvalidSchemaError if there is a problem with the
schema or a ValidationError if the instance doesn't validate against the
schema.
* interpret: (compiledSchema: CompiledSchema, instance: JsonNode, outputFormat: OutputFormat = BASIC) => JsonNode

Annotate a JsonNode object rather than a plain JavaScript value. This might
be useful when building tools on top of the annotation functionality, but
you probably don't need it.
* ValidationError: Error & { output: OutputUnit }
The output field contains an OutputUnit with information about the
error.

AnnotatedInstance API (experimental)


These are available from the
@hyperjump/json-schema/annotated-instance/experimental export. The
following functions are available in addition to the functions available in the
Instance API.

* annotation: (instance: JsonNode, keyword: string, dialect?: string): any[];

Get the annotations for a keyword for the value represented by the JsonNode.
* annotatedWith: (instance: JsonNode, keyword: string, dialect?: string): Generator;

Get all JsonNodes that are annotated with the given keyword.
* setAnnotation: (instance: JsonNode, keywordId: string, value: any) => JsonNode

Add an annotation to an instance. This is used internally, you probably
don't need it.
