JsonValidation
JsonValidation validates JSON according to a JSON Schema.
It is designed to validate as quickly as possible.
Current limitations
- The library can only say whether a record is valid or not. In the event that a record is not valid, it will not say why.
- The library will only validate against draft v4 of the JSON Schema specification.
Installation
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'json_validation'
And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install json_validation
Usage
Load the library:
require "json_validation"
Build a validator from a hash representing a JSON schema:
validator = JsonValidation.build_validator(schema)
Load a validator from a schema at a URL or path:
validator = JsonValidation.load_validator(uri)
Use the validator to validate whether a record validates against a schema.
validator.validate(record)
# => returns true or false
Contributing
If you find an example of a record being incorrectly validated against a schema, please raise an issue on GitHub.
You can run the tests with:
$ bundle exec rake test
A handful of tests require internet access.
