org.eel.kitchen.jsonschema.main.JsonSchemaFactory

public final class JsonSchemaFactory
extends Object

Factory to build JSON Schema validating instances

You can create a factory with all default settings using defaultFactory(). This is what you will do in the vast majority of cases.

If you want to customize it, you need to go through JsonSchemaFactory.Builder.

This class is thread safe and immutable.

Method Detail

defaultFactory

public static JsonSchemaFactory defaultFactory()

Build a factory with all default settings

Returns:

a schema factory instance

fromSchema

public JsonSchema fromSchema(JsonNode schema,
                    String path)

Create a schema instance from a JSON Schema, at a certain path

For instance, if you submit this schema:

     {
         "schema1": { ... },
         "schema2": { ... }
     }
 

then you can create a validator for schema1 using:

     final JsonSchema schema = factory.create(schema, "#/schema1");
 

The path can be a JsonPointer as above, but also an id reference.

Parameters:

schema - the schema

path - the pointer/id reference into the schema

Returns:

a JsonSchema instance

fromSchema

public JsonSchema fromSchema(JsonNode schema)

Create a schema instance from a JSON Schema

This calls fromSchema(JsonNode, String) with "" as a path.

Parameters:

schema - the schema

Returns:

a JsonSchema instance

fromURI

public JsonSchema fromURI(URI uri,
                 String path)
                   throws JsonSchemaException

Create a schema instance from a JSON Schema located at a given URI, and at a given path

This allows you, for instance, to load a schema using HTTP. Or, in fact, any other URI scheme that is supported.

Parameters:

uri - the URI

path - the JSON Pointer/id reference into the downloaded schema

Returns:

a JsonSchema instance

Throws:

JsonSchemaException - unable to get content from that URI

URIManager, SchemaRegistry

fromURI

public JsonSchema fromURI(URI uri)
                   throws JsonSchemaException

Create a schema instance from a JSON Schema located at a given URI

Parameters:

uri - the URI

Returns:

a JsonSchema instance

Throws:

fromSchema(JsonNode, String)

fromURI

public JsonSchema fromURI(String str)
                   throws JsonSchemaException

Create a schema instance from a JSON Schema located at a given URI

Parameters:

str - the URI as a string

Returns:

fromURI

public JsonSchema fromURI(String str,
                 String path)
