Documentation on docs.rs: https://docs.rs/jddf

This crate is a Rust implementation of JSON Data Definition Format. You can use it to:

1. Validate input data is valid against a schema,
2. Get a list of validation errors with that input data, or
3. Build your own custom tooling on top of JSON Data Definition Format.

Usage

The detailed documentation on docs.rs goes into more detail, but at a high level here's how you use this crate to validate inputted data:

```rust use serde_json::json; use jddf::{Schema, SerdeSchema, Validator, ValidationError}; use failure::Error; use std::collections::HashSet;

fn main() -> Result<(), Error> { let demoschemadata = r#" { "properties": { "name": { "type": "string" }, "age": { "type": "float64" }, "phones": { "elements": { "type": "string" } } } } "#;

// The SerdeSchema type is a serde-friendly format for representing
// schemas.
let demo_schema: SerdeSchema = serde_json::from_str(demo_schema_data)?;

// The Schema type is a higher-level format that does more validity
// checks.
let demo_schema = Schema::from_serde(demo_schema).unwrap();

// Validator can quickly check if an instance satisfies some schema.
// With the new_with_config constructor, you can configure how many
// errors to return, and how to handle the possibility of a
// circularly-defined schema.
let validator = Validator::new();
let input_ok = json!({
    "name": "John Doe",
    "age": 43,
    "phones": [
        "+44 1234567",
        "+44 2345678"
    ]
});

let validation_errors_ok = validator.validate(&demo_schema, &input_ok)?;
assert!(validation_errors_ok.is_empty());

let input_bad = json!({
    "age": "43",
    "phones": [
        "+44 1234567",
        442345678
    ]
});

// Each ValidationError holds paths to the bad part of the input, as
// well as the part of the schema which rejected it.
//
// For testing purposes, we'll sort the errors so that their order is
// predictable.
let mut validation_errors_bad = validator.validate(&demo_schema, &input_bad)?;
validation_errors_bad.sort_by_key(|err| err.instance_path().to_string());
assert_eq!(validation_errors_bad.len(), 3);

// "name" is required
assert_eq!(validation_errors_bad[0].instance_path().to_string(), "");
assert_eq!(validation_errors_bad[0].schema_path().to_string(), "/properties/name");

// "age" has the wrong type
assert_eq!(validation_errors_bad[1].instance_path().to_string(), "/age");
assert_eq!(validation_errors_bad[1].schema_path().to_string(), "/properties/age/type");

// "phones[1]" has the wrong type
assert_eq!(validation_errors_bad[2].instance_path().to_string(), "/phones/1");
assert_eq!(validation_errors_bad[2].schema_path().to_string(), "/properties/phones/elements/type");

Ok(())
