json-schema-validator

Maven plugin to validate json files against a json schema. Uses https://github.com/fge/json-schema-validator library under the covers.

Usage

Determine the latest version of the validator in Maven Central.

Add the plugin to your pom either in the plugins or pluginManagement block:

<plugin>
    <groupId>com.groupon.maven.plugin.json</groupId>
    <artifactId>json-schema-validator</artifactId>
    <version>VERSION</version>
</plugin>

Configure one or more validation blocks for the plugin in the plugins block:

<plugin>
    <artifactId>json-schema-validator</artifactId>
    <groupId>com.groupon.maven.plugin.json</groupId>
    <executions>
        <execution>
            <phase>verify</phase>
            <goals>
                <goal>validate</goal>
            </goals>
        </execution>
    </executions>
    <configuration>
        <validations>
            <validation>
                <directory>${basedir}/src/main/resources/data</directory>
                <jsonSchema>${basedir}/src/test/resources/data.schema</jsonSchema>
                <includes>
                    <include>**/*.json</include>
                </includes>
            </validation>
        </validations>
    </configuration>
</plugin>

Each validation block specifies the jsonSchema file to validate with as well as the json file(s) to validate from a root directory with standard includes and excludes to select specific file(s).
