NAME

JSON::Schema::Modern::Document - One JSON Schema document

VERSION

version 0.608

SYNOPSIS

use JSON::Schema::Modern::Document;

my $document = JSON::Schema::Modern::Document->new(
  canonical_uri => 'https://example.com/v1/schema',
  metaschema_uri => 'https://example.com/my/custom/metaschema',
  schema => $schema,
);
my $foo_definition = $document->get('/$defs/foo');
my %resource_index = $document->resource_index;

my sanity_check = $document->validate;

DESCRIPTION

This class represents one JSON Schema document, to be used by JSON::Schema::Modern.

CONSTRUCTOR ARGUMENTS

Unless otherwise noted, these are also available as read-only accessors.

schema

The actual raw data representing the schema. Required.

canonical_uri

As a constructor value, represents the initial URI by which the document should be known, or a base URI to use to determine that value. The URI found in the root schema's $id keyword is resolved against this URI to determine the final value, which is then stored in this accessor. As such, it can be considered the canonical URI for the document as a whole, from which subsequent $ref keywords are resolved.

The original passed-in value is saved in "original_uri".

metaschema_uri

Sets the metaschema that is used to describe the document (or more specifically, any JSON Schemas contained within the document), which determines the specification version and vocabularies used during evaluation. Does not override any $schema keyword actually present in the schema document.

specification_version

Only a constructor argument, not an accessor method.

Indicates which version of the JSON Schema specification is used during evaluation. This value is overridden by the value determined from the $schema keyword in the schema used in evaluation (when present), or defaults to the latest version (currently draft2020-12).

The use of the $schema keyword in your schema is HIGHLY encouraged to ensure continued correct operation of your schema. The current default value will not stay the same over time.

May be one of:

  • draft2020-12 or 2020-12, corresponding to metaschema https://json-schema.org/draft/2020-12/schema

  • draft2019-09 or 2019-09, corresponding to metaschema https://json-schema.org/draft/2019-09/schema

  • draft7 or 7, corresponding to metaschema http://json-schema.org/draft-07/schema#

  • draft6 or 6, corresponding to metaschema http://json-schema.org/draft-06/schema#

  • draft4 or 4, corresponding to metaschema http://json-schema.org/draft-04/schema#

evaluator

A JSON::Schema::Modern object. Optional, unless custom metaschemas are used.

METHODS

errors

Returns a list of JSON::Schema::Modern::Error objects that resulted when the schema document was originally parsed. (If a syntax error occurred, usually there will be just one error, as parse errors halt the parsing process.) Documents with errors cannot be used for evaluation.

original_uri

Returns the original value of "canonical_uri" that was passed to the document constructor (which $id keywords within the document would have been resolved against, if they were not already absolute). Some subclasses may make use of this value for resolving URIs when matching HTTP requests at runtime.

This URI is not added to the document's resource index, so if you want the document to be addressable at this location you must add it to the evaluator yourself with the two-argument form of "add_document" in JSON::Schema::Modern.

Read-only.

resource_index

An index of URIs to subschemas (JSON pointer to reach the location, and the canonical URI of that location) for all identifiable subschemas found in the document. An entry for URI '' is added only when no other suitable identifier can be found for the root schema.

This attribute should only be used by JSON::Schema::Modern and not intended for use externally (you should use the public accessors in JSON::Schema::Modern instead).

When called as a method, returns the flattened list of tuples (path, uri). You can also use resource_pairs which returns a list of tuples as arrayrefs.

contains

Check if "schema" contains a value that can be identified with the given JSON Pointer. See "contains" in Mojo::JSON::Pointer.

get

Extract value from "schema" identified by the given JSON Pointer. See "get" in Mojo::JSON::Pointer.

validate

Evaluates the document against its metaschema. See "evaluate" in JSON::Schema::Modern. For regular JSON Schemas this is redundant with creating the document in the first place (which also includes a validation check), but for some subclasses of this class, additional things might be checked that are not caught by document creation.

TO_JSON

Returns a data structure suitable for serialization. See "schema".

SUBCLASSING

This class can be subclassed to describe documents of other types, which follow the same basic model (has a document-level identifier and may contain internal referenceable identifiers). The overall document itself may not be a JSON Schema, but it may contain JSON Schemas internally. Referenceable entities may or may not be JSON Schemas. As long as the traverse method is implemented and the $state object is respected, any other functionality may be contained by this subclass.

To date, there is one subclass of JSON::Schema::Modern::Document: JSON::Schema::Modern::Document::OpenAPI, which contains entities of type schema as well as others (e.g. request-body, response, path-item, etc). An object of this class represents one OpenAPI document, used by OpenAPI::Modern to specify application APIs.
