I'm running into an issue with a Json schema validation.
I have a Java class like this
package com.ebc.jackson.exampe.data;
public class FormElement {
private String fieldName;
private String fieldType;
private Object value;
public String getFieldName() {
return fieldName;
}
public void setFieldName(String fieldName) {
this.fieldName = fieldName;
}
public String getFieldType() {
return fieldType;
}
public void setFieldType(String fieldType) {
this.fieldType = fieldType;
}
public Object getValue() {
return value;
}
public void setValue(Object value) {
this.value = value;
}
}
I'm using below code to generate the schema:
JsonSchemaGenerator generator =
new JsonSchemaGenerator(objectMapper);
JsonNode schema = generator.generateJsonSchema(FormElement.class);
String strSchema = objectMapper.writerWithDefaultPrettyPrinter().writeValueAsString(schema);
this code generates below schema
{
"$schema" : "http://json-schema.org/draft-04/schema#",
"title" : "Form Element",
"type" : "object",
"additionalProperties" : false,
"properties" : {
"fieldName" : {
"type" : "string"
},
"fieldType" : {
"type" : "string"
},
"value" : {
"$ref" : "#/definitions/Object"
}
},
"definitions" : {
"Object" : {
"type" : "object",
"additionalProperties" : false,
"properties" : { }
}
}
}
In the request, I could receive a Json Object like
{
"fieldName": "user-name",
"fieldType": "textInput",
"value": "Alex"
}
When I try to validate this object against the Json schema, "value" attribute is not valid, it is expecting a "key: value" pair but, a string is found. In the Java class the value attribute is Object because it could be a String, Integer, Boolean, etc.
My question is, how can I generate a schema to support different data types for "value" attribute?
You can use the anyOf property of schema:
Try the below one:
{
"$schema": "http://json-schema.org/draft-04/schema#",
"title": "Form Element",
"type": "object",
"additionalProperties": false,
"properties": {
"fieldName": {
"type": "string"
},
"fieldType": {
"type": "string"
},
"value": {
"$ref": "#/definitions/Object"
}
},
"definitions": {
"Object": {
"format": "",
"anyOf": [
{
"type": "object"
},
{
"type": "string"
},
{
"type": "number"
},
{
"type": "integer"
},
{
"type": "boolean",
"x-enumFlags": true
},
{
"type": "null"
}
],
"additionalProperties": false,
"properties": {}
}
}
}
Or you could try the pipe separator in type.In the schema you provided just change the value of type to "type": "string|object|integer|number". This notation didn't work for me in swagger but you can check if it works for you.
