json_schema

A JSON Schema V4 and Hyperschema V4 parser and validator.

Validate some data based on a JSON Schema:

gem install json_schema
validate-schema schema.json data.json

Programmatic

require "json"
require "json_schema"

# parse the schema - raise SchemaError if it's invalid
schema_data = JSON.parse(File.read("schema.json"))
schema = JsonSchema.parse!(schema_data)

# expand $ref nodes - raise SchemaError if unable to resolve
schema.expand_references!

# validate some data - raise ValidationError if it doesn't conform
data = JSON.parse(File.read("data.json"))
schema.validate!(data)

# iterate through hyperschema links
schema.links.each do |link|
  puts "#{link.method} #{link.href}"
end

Errors have a message (for humans), and type (for machines). ValidationErrors also include a path, a JSON pointer to the location in the supplied document which violated the schema. See errors for more info.

Non-bang methods return a two-element array, with true/false at index 0 to indicate pass/fail, and an array of errors at index 1 (if any).
