JSON-SCHEMA: Motivation

Problem: If many JSON-Files are created over time by different people / tools, you want them to follow a certain structure

JSON Dataset 1
{
    "c": 1.0
}
JSON Dataset 2
{
    "c": "1.0"
}

They express the same information, but are different / incompatible

JSON-SCHEMA: Validation (1)

A JSON-SCHEMA can describe and validate a JSON-Document

JSON Schema
{
    "type": "object",
    "properties": {
        "c": {
            "type": "number"
        }
    }
}
JSON Dataset 1
{
    "c": 1.0



}

Dataset 1 is valid

JSON-SCHEMA: Validation (2)

A JSON-SCHEMA can describe and validate a JSON-Document

JSON Schema
{
    "type": "object",
    "properties": {
        "c": {
            "type": "number"
        }
    }
}
JSON Dataset 2
{
    "c": "1.0"



}

Dataset 2 is not valid


JSON-SCHEMA: Definition

What is a JSON-SCHEMA?

  • A JSON document defining the valid structure of another JSON document
  • The "type" keyword is special. It allows us to specify which values of a JSON object are valid! [1]

JSON-SCHEMA: the "type" Keyword

What is a JSON-SCHEMA?

  • A JSON document defining the valid structure of another JSON document
  • The "type" keyword is special. It allows us to specify which values of a JSON object are valid!
  • json-schema.org defines the following basic types [2]:
    • string
    • number
    • integer
    • object
    • array
    • boolean
    • null

JSON-SCHEMA: Typing

How to define a JSON-SCHEMA?

  • We want to levearge the power of typing and validation
  • Therefore, our defined key(word):value pairs need to become JSON objects, specifying a type!
{
    "title": "Item",
    "type": "object",
    "properties": {
        "name": {
            "type": "string"
        },
        "count": {
            "type": "integer"
        },
        "pi": {
            "type": "number"
        },
        "validated": {
            "type": "boolean"
        }     
    }
}

JSON-SCHEMA: Reference

How to define a JSON-SCHEMA?

  • We want to levearge the power of typing and validation
  • Therefore, our defined key(word):value pairs need to become JSON objects, specifying a type!
  • JSON (object) properties posses a keyword, which is used for reference
{
    "title": "Item",
    "type": "object",
    "properties": {
        "name": {
            "type": "string"
        },
        "count": {
            "type": "integer"
        },
        "pi": {
            "type": "number"
        },
        "validated": {
            "type": "boolean"
        }     
    }
}

  • Therefore, our defined key(word):value pairs need to become JSON objects, specifying a type!
  • JSON (object) properties posses a keyword, which is used for reference
  • JSON properties, being objects, can also have a title - e.g., for display purpose
{
    "title": "Item",
    "type": "object",
    "properties": {
        "name": {
            "title": "Name",

        },
        "count": {
            "title": "Count",  
            "type": "integer"
        },
        "pi": {
            "title": "Pi",  
            "type": "number"
        },
        "validated": {
            "title": "Validation status",  
            "type": "boolean"
        }

    ]
}

  • Allowing more than one valid option - the "anyOf" keyword
  • Allowing exactly one valid option - the "oneOf" keyword
  • Validating against several options - the "allOf" keyword
{
    "title": "Abbreviation",    
    "type": "string",
    "allOf": [
        "minLength": 2,
        "maxLength": 5,
        "pattern": "[A-Z]"
    ]
}

JSON-SCHEMA: Options(3)

Some JSON-SCHEMA go-to patterns

  • Allowing more than one valid option - the "anyOf" keyword
  • Allowing exactly one valid option - the "oneOf" keyword
  • Validating against several options - the "allOf" keyword
  • Excluding one option - the "not" keyword
{
    "title": "Abbreviation",    
    "not": [
        "type": "number",
        "type": "integer",
        "type": "null",
