Hyperschema about json-everything HOT 5 CLOSED

URI templates are required by this specification. The previous .Net implementation is .Net Framework and hasn't been ported yet (not even into .Net 5). I looked at just pulling the class into the library, but it appears that it's not just a simple copy/paste of the class definition.

I'll either need to wait for MS to port it, or see if I can find one. I'm not sure I understand enough about the domain to implement it myself.

Looks like someone did the direct port! Well, several people did, but this is the one I'm using.

From the spec, section 6.4.1 on template pointers

The value of the "templatePointers" link description property MUST be an object. Each property value in the object MUST be a valid JSON Pointer [RFC6901], or a valid Relative JSON Pointer...

I can't evaluate relative pointers because of a limitation in the JSON element structure. I won't be able to support evaluating schemas with these for now.

It sounds like this is more for code gen than validation, like generation of API clients. Visual Studio can do this for an API that publishes a swagger file. You point the tool at the API, and it generates all of the models and a client.

Is there any validation expected here? Even the spec doesn't really talk about "an instance is valid against this keyword if x criteria are met." I'm struggling to figure out what a validator would do with this.

I'm leaning on the Slack community to answer this.

Confirmed in the JSON Schema Slack that this isn't a validation vocabulary. It's for tooling support.

I'm not sure that's something I want to support. At least not right now. Closing this.
