## Usage
|
|
|
|
### Example
|
|
|
|
```go
|
|
|
|
package main
|
|
|
|
import (
|
|
"fmt"
|
|
"github.com/xeipuuv/gojsonschema"
|
|
)
|
|
|
|
func main() {
|
|
|
|
schemaLoader := gojsonschema.NewReferenceLoader("file:///home/me/schema.json")
|
|
documentLoader := gojsonschema.NewReferenceLoader("file:///home/me/document.json")
|
|
|
|
result, err := gojsonschema.Validate(schemaLoader, documentLoader)
|
|
if err != nil {
|
|
panic(err.Error())
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
if result.Valid() {
|
|
fmt.Printf("The document is valid\n")
|
|
} else {
|
|
fmt.Printf("The document is not valid. see errors :\n")
|
|
for _, desc := range result.Errors() {
|
|
fmt.Printf("- %s\n", desc)
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### Loaders
|
|
|
|
There are various ways to load your JSON data.
|
|
In order to load your schemas and documents,
|
|
first declare an appropriate loader :
|
|
|
|
* Web / HTTP, using a reference :
|
|
|
|
```go
|
|
loader := gojsonschema.NewReferenceLoader("http://www.some_host.com/schema.json")
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
* Local file, using a reference :
|
|
|
|
```go
|
|
loader := gojsonschema.NewReferenceLoader("file:///home/me/schema.json")
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
References use the URI scheme, the prefix (file://) and a full path to the file are required.
|
|
|
|
* JSON strings :
|
|
|
|
```go
|
|
loader := gojsonschema.NewStringLoader(`{"type": "string"}`)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
* Custom Go types :
|
|
|
|
```go
|
|
m := map[string]interface{}{"type": "string"}
|
|
loader := gojsonschema.NewGoLoader(m)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
And
|
|
|
|
```go
|
|
type Root struct {
|
|
Users []User `json:"users"`
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
type User struct {
|
|
Name string `json:"name"`
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
...
|
|
|
|
data := Root{}
|
|
data.Users = append(data.Users, User{"John"})
|
|
data.Users = append(data.Users, User{"Sophia"})
|
|
data.Users = append(data.Users, User{"Bill"})
|
|
|
|
loader := gojsonschema.NewGoLoader(data)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### Validation
|
|
|
|
Once the loaders are set, validation is easy :
|
|
|
|
```go
|
|
result, err := gojsonschema.Validate(schemaLoader, documentLoader)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Alternatively, you might want to load a schema only once and process to multiple validations :
|
|
|
|
```go
|
|
schema, err := gojsonschema.NewSchema(schemaLoader)
|
|
...
|
|
result1, err := schema.Validate(documentLoader1)
|
|
...
|
|
result2, err := schema.Validate(documentLoader2)
|
|
...
|
|
// etc ...
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
To check the result :
|
|
|
|
```go
|
|
if result.Valid() {
|
|
fmt.Printf("The document is valid\n")
|
|
} else {
|
|
fmt.Printf("The document is not valid. see errors :\n")
|
|
for _, err := range result.Errors() {
|
|
// Err implements the ResultError interface
|
|
fmt.Printf("- %s\n", err)
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Loading local schemas
|
|
|
|
By default `file` and `http(s)` references to external schemas are loaded automatically via the file system or via http(s). An external schema can also be loaded using a `SchemaLoader`.
|
|
|
|
```go
|
|
sl := gojsonschema.NewSchemaLoader()
|
|
loader1 := gojsonschema.NewStringLoader(`{ "type" : "string" }`)
|
|
err := sl.AddSchema("http://some_host.com/string.json", loader1)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Alternatively if your schema already has an `$id` you can use the `AddSchemas` function
|
|
```go
|
|
loader2 := gojsonschema.NewStringLoader(`{
|
|
"$id" : "http://some_host.com/maxlength.json",
|
|
"maxLength" : 5
|
|
}`)
|
|
err = sl.AddSchemas(loader2)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The main schema should be passed to the `Compile` function. This main schema can then directly reference the added schemas without needing to download them.
|
|
```go
|
|
loader3 := gojsonschema.NewStringLoader(`{
|
|
"$id" : "http://some_host.com/main.json",
|
|
"allOf" : [
|
|
{ "$ref" : "http://some_host.com/string.json" },
|
|
{ "$ref" : "http://some_host.com/maxlength.json" }
|
|
]
|
|
}`)
|
|
|
|
schema, err := sl.Compile(loader3)
|
|
|
|
documentLoader := gojsonschema.NewStringLoader(`"hello world"`)
|
|
|
|
result, err := schema.Validate(documentLoader)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
It's also possible to pass a `ReferenceLoader` to the `Compile` function that references a loaded schema.
|
|
|
|
```go
|
|
err = sl.AddSchemas(loader3)
|
|
schema, err := sl.Compile(gojsonschema.NewReferenceLoader("http://some_host.com/main.json"))
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Schemas added by `AddSchema` and `AddSchemas` are only validated when the entire schema is compiled, unless meta-schema validation is used.
|
|
|
|
## Using a specific draft
|
|
By default `gojsonschema` will try to detect the draft of a schema by using the `$schema` keyword and parse it in a strict draft-04, draft-06 or draft-07 mode. If `$schema` is missing, or the draft version is not explicitely set, a hybrid mode is used which merges together functionality of all drafts into one mode.
|
|
|
|
Autodectection can be turned off with the `AutoDetect` property. Specific draft versions can be specified with the `Draft` property.
|
|
|
|
```go
|
|
sl := gojsonschema.NewSchemaLoader()
|
|
sl.Draft = gojsonschema.Draft7
|
|
sl.AutoDetect = false
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If autodetection is on (default), a draft-07 schema can savely reference draft-04 schemas and vice-versa, as long as `$schema` is specified in all schemas.
|
|
|
|
## Meta-schema validation
|
|
Schemas that are added using the `AddSchema`, `AddSchemas` and `Compile` can be validated against their meta-schema by setting the `Validate` property.
|
|
|
|
The following example will produce an error as `multipleOf` must be a number. If `Validate` is off (default), this error is only returned at the `Compile` step.
|
|
|
|
```go
|
|
sl := gojsonschema.NewSchemaLoader()
|
|
sl.Validate = true
|
|
err := sl.AddSchemas(gojsonschema.NewStringLoader(`{
|
|
$id" : "http://some_host.com/invalid.json",
|
|
"$schema": "http://json-schema.org/draft-07/schema#",
|
|
"multipleOf" : true
|
|
}`))
|
|
```
|
|
```
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Errors returned by meta-schema validation are more readable and contain more information, which helps significantly if you are developing a schema.
|
|
|
|
Meta-schema validation also works with a custom `$schema`. In case `$schema` is missing, or `AutoDetect` is set to `false`, the meta-schema of the used draft is used.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Working with Errors
|
|
|
|
The library handles string error codes which you can customize by creating your own gojsonschema.locale and setting it
|
|
```go
|
|
gojsonschema.Locale = YourCustomLocale{}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
However, each error contains additional contextual information.
|
|
|
|
Newer versions of `gojsonschema` may have new additional errors, so code that uses a custom locale will need to be updated when this happens.
|
|
|
|
**err.Type()**: *string* Returns the "type" of error that occurred. Note you can also type check. See below
|
|
|
|
Note: An error of RequiredType has an err.Type() return value of "required"
|
|
|
|
"required": RequiredError
|
|
"invalid_type": InvalidTypeError
|
|
"number_any_of": NumberAnyOfError
|
|
"number_one_of": NumberOneOfError
|
|
"number_all_of": NumberAllOfError
|
|
"number_not": NumberNotError
|
|
"missing_dependency": MissingDependencyError
|
|
"internal": InternalError
|
|
"const": ConstEror
|
|
"enum": EnumError
|
|
"array_no_additional_items": ArrayNoAdditionalItemsError
|
|
"array_min_items": ArrayMinItemsError
|
|
"array_max_items": ArrayMaxItemsError
|
|
"unique": ItemsMustBeUniqueError
|
|
"contains" : ArrayContainsError
|
|
"array_min_properties": ArrayMinPropertiesError
|
|
"array_max_properties": ArrayMaxPropertiesError
|
|
"additional_property_not_allowed": AdditionalPropertyNotAllowedError
|
|
"invalid_property_pattern": InvalidPropertyPatternError
|
|
"invalid_property_name": InvalidPropertyNameError
|
|
"string_gte": StringLengthGTEError
|
|
"string_lte": StringLengthLTEError
|
|
"pattern": DoesNotMatchPatternError
|
|
"multiple_of": MultipleOfError
|
|
"number_gte": NumberGTEError
|
|
"number_gt": NumberGTError
|
|
"number_lte": NumberLTEError
|
|
"number_lt": NumberLTError
|
|
"condition_then" : ConditionThenError
|
|
"condition_else" : ConditionElseError
|
|
|
|
**err.Value()**: *interface{}* Returns the value given
|
|
|
|
**err.Context()**: *gojsonschema.JsonContext* Returns the context. This has a String() method that will print something like this: (root).firstName
|
|
|
|
**err.Field()**: *string* Returns the fieldname in the format firstName, or for embedded properties, person.firstName. This returns the same as the String() method on *err.Context()* but removes the (root). prefix.
|
|
|
|
**err.Description()**: *string* The error description. This is based on the locale you are using. See the beginning of this section for overwriting the locale with a custom implementation.
|
|
|
|
**err.DescriptionFormat()**: *string* The error description format. This is relevant if you are adding custom validation errors afterwards to the result.
|
|
|
|
**err.Details()**: *gojsonschema.ErrorDetails* Returns a map[string]interface{} of additional error details specific to the error. For example, GTE errors will have a "min" value, LTE will have a "max" value. See errors.go for a full description of all the error details. Every error always contains a "field" key that holds the value of *err.Field()*
|
|
|
|
Note in most cases, the err.Details() will be used to generate replacement strings in your locales, and not used directly. These strings follow the text/template format i.e.
|
|
```
|
|
{{.field}} must be greater than or equal to {{.min}}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The library allows you to specify custom template functions, should you require more complex error message handling.
|
|
```go
|
|
gojsonschema.ErrorTemplateFuncs = map[string]interface{}{
|
|
"allcaps": func(s string) string {
|
|
return strings.ToUpper(s)
|
|
},
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Given the above definition, you can use the custom function `"allcaps"` in your localization templates:
|
|
```
|
|
{{allcaps .field}} must be greater than or equal to {{.min}}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The above error message would then be rendered with the `field` value in capital letters. For example:
|
|
```
|
|
"PASSWORD must be greater than or equal to 8"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Learn more about what types of template functions you can use in `ErrorTemplateFuncs` by referring to Go's [text/template FuncMap](https://golang.org/pkg/text/template/#FuncMap) type.
|
|
|
|
## Formats
|
|
JSON Schema allows for optional "format" property to validate instances against well-known formats. gojsonschema ships with all of the formats defined in the spec that you can use like this:
|
|
|
|
````json
|
|
{"type": "string", "format": "email"}
|
|
````
|
|
|
|
Not all formats defined in draft-07 are available. Implemented formats are:
|
|
|
|
* `date`
|
|
* `time`
|
|
* `date-time`
|
|
* `hostname`. Subdomains that start with a number are also supported, but this means that it doesn't strictly follow [RFC1034](http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc1034#section-3.5) and has the implication that ipv4 addresses are also recognized as valid hostnames.
|
|
* `email`. Go's email parser deviates slightly from [RFC5322](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5322). Includes unicode support.
|
|
* `idn-email`. Same caveat as `email`.
|
|
* `ipv4`
|
|
* `ipv6`
|
|
* `uri`. Includes unicode support.
|
|
* `uri-reference`. Includes unicode support.
|
|
* `iri`
|
|
* `iri-reference`
|
|
* `uri-template`
|
|
* `uuid`
|
|
* `regex`. Go uses the [RE2](https://github.com/google/re2/wiki/Syntax) engine and is not [ECMA262](http://www.ecma-international.org/publications/files/ECMA-ST/Ecma-262.pdf) compatible.
|
|
* `json-pointer`
|
|
* `relative-json-pointer`
|
|
|
|
`email`, `uri` and `uri-reference` use the same validation code as their unicode counterparts `idn-email`, `iri` and `iri-reference`. If you rely on unicode support you should use the specific
|
|
unicode enabled formats for the sake of interoperability as other implementations might not support unicode in the regular formats.
|
|
|
|
The validation code for `uri`, `idn-email` and their relatives use mostly standard library code.
|
|
|
|
For repetitive or more complex formats, you can create custom format checkers and add them to gojsonschema like this:
|
|
|
|
```go
|
|
// Define the format checker
|
|
type RoleFormatChecker struct {}
|
|
|
|
// Ensure it meets the gojsonschema.FormatChecker interface
|
|
func (f RoleFormatChecker) IsFormat(input interface{}) bool {
|
|
|
|
asString, ok := input.(string)
|
|
if ok == false {
|
|
return false
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
return strings.HasPrefix("ROLE_", asString)
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
// Add it to the library
|
|
gojsonschema.FormatCheckers.Add("role", RoleFormatChecker{})
|
|
````
|
|
|
|
Now to use in your json schema:
|
|
````json
|
|
{"type": "string", "format": "role"}
|
|
````
|
|
|
|
Another example would be to check if the provided integer matches an id on database:
|
|
|
|
JSON schema:
|
|
```json
|
|
{"type": "integer", "format": "ValidUserId"}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```go
|
|
// Define the format checker
|
|
type ValidUserIdFormatChecker struct {}
|
|
|
|
// Ensure it meets the gojsonschema.FormatChecker interface
|
|
func (f ValidUserIdFormatChecker) IsFormat(input interface{}) bool {
|
|
|
|
asFloat64, ok := input.(float64) // Numbers are always float64 here
|
|
if ok == false {
|
|
return false
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
// XXX
|
|
// do the magic on the database looking for the int(asFloat64)
|
|
|
|
return true
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
// Add it to the library
|
|
gojsonschema.FormatCheckers.Add("ValidUserId", ValidUserIdFormatChecker{})
|
|
````
|
|
|
|
Formats can also be removed, for example if you want to override one of the formats that is defined by default.
|
|
|
|
```go
|
|
gojsonschema.FormatCheckers.Remove("hostname")
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Additional custom validation
|
|
After the validation has run and you have the results, you may add additional
|
|
errors using `Result.AddError`. This is useful to maintain the same format within the resultset instead
|
|
of having to add special exceptions for your own errors. Below is an example.
|
|
|
|
```go
|
|
type AnswerInvalidError struct {
|
|
gojsonschema.ResultErrorFields
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
func newAnswerInvalidError(context *gojsonschema.JsonContext, value interface{}, details gojsonschema.ErrorDetails) *AnswerInvalidError {
|
|
err := AnswerInvalidError{}
|
|
err.SetContext(context)
|
|
err.SetType("custom_invalid_error")
|
|
// it is important to use SetDescriptionFormat() as this is used to call SetDescription() after it has been parsed
|
|
// using the description of err will be overridden by this.
|
|
err.SetDescriptionFormat("Answer to the Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe, and Everything is {{.answer}}")
|
|
err.SetValue(value)
|
|
err.SetDetails(details)
|
|
|
|
return &err
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
func main() {
|
|
// ...
|
|
schema, err := gojsonschema.NewSchema(schemaLoader)
|
|
result, err := gojsonschema.Validate(schemaLoader, documentLoader)
|
|
|
|
if true { // some validation
|
|
jsonContext := gojsonschema.NewJsonContext("question", nil)
|
|
errDetail := gojsonschema.ErrorDetails{
|
|
"answer": 42,
|
|
}
|
|
result.AddError(
|
|
newAnswerInvalidError(
|
|
gojsonschema.NewJsonContext("answer", jsonContext),
|
|
52,
|
|
errDetail,
|
|
),
|
|
errDetail,
|
|
)
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
return result, err
|
|
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This is especially useful if you want to add validation beyond what the
|
|
json schema drafts can provide such business specific logic.
