**go-jsonschema is a tool to generate Go data types from [JSON Schema](http://json-schema.org/) definitions.**

This tool generates Go data types and structs that corresponds to definitions in the schema,
along with unmarshalling code that validates the input JSON according to the schema's validation rules.

go get github.com/atombender/go-jsonschema/...
go install github.com/atombender/go-jsonschema@latest
```

* **Install with Brew**: To install with [Homebrew](https://brew.sh):

```shell
brew tap omissis/go-jsonschema
brew install go-jsonschema
```

## Contributing

This project makes use of [go workspaces](https://go.dev/ref/mod#workspaces) in order to ease testing of the
generated code during development while keeping the codebase as tidy and maintainable as possible.
It's an unusual choice, but it allows to not only test the code-generation logic, but also the generated code itself.

## Usage

At its most basic:

```shell
go-jsonschema -p main schema.json
```

This will write a Go source file to standard output, declared under the package `main`.

You can generate code for multiple schemas in one run, optionally writing to different files inside different packages:

```shell
$ go-jsonschema \
--schema-package=https://example.com/schema1=github.com/myuser/myproject \
--schema-output=https://example.com/schema1=schema1.go \
--schema-package=https://example.com/schema2=github.com/myuser/myproject/stuff \
--schema-output=https://example.com/schema2=stuff/schema2.go \
schema1.json schema2.json
```

This will create `schema1.go` (declared as `package myproject`) and `stuff/schema2.go` (declared as `package stuff`).
If `schema1.json` refers to `schema2.json` or viceversa, the two Go files will import the other depended-on package.
Note the flag format:

```text
--schema-package=https://example.com/schema1=github.com/myuser/myproject \
^ ^
| |
schema $id full import URL
```

### Special types

In a few cases, special types are used to help with serializing/deserializing
data frrom JSON. Namely a custom types is provided for the following semantic
types:

* `SerializableDate`
* `SerializableTime`

These types are needed because there is no native type provided by Go which
properly handles them.

## Status

While not finished, go-jsonschema can be used today. Aside from some minor features,
only specific validations remain to be fully implemented.
