How to register several schemas with an id? about z-schema HOT 9 CLOSED

Interesting, do you have a quick sample of how this is done with others? I don't think it's possible right now without urls but it would not make much of an effort to implement this.

Well, here is a piece of production code using JSV:

var jsv = (require('jsv')).JSV;
var jsonSourceSchemas = (require('require-all'))({
    dirname: path.join(__dirname, 'schema-files'),
    filter: /(.+)\.json$/,
    excludeDirs: /^\.(git|svn)$/
  });

var jsvEnv = jsv.createEnvironment();
var mainSchema;

for (schemaName in jsonSourceSchemas) {
    schemaJson = jsonSourceSchemas[schemaName];
    sc = jsvEnv.createSchema(schemaJson);
    if (schemaName == "mainSchema") {
        mainSchema = sc
    }
}

var validateRequest = function(req) {
    valrep = jsvEnv.validate(req, mainSchema);
    if (valrep.errors.length) {
      throw new Error("JSON Schema validation failed for incoming request!");
}

With JaySchema it should be possible similarly. With JaySchema you can call getMissingSchemas() after each register() call which I find very useful.

Ok, I'll definitely think of something ;-)

I'm curious about it ...

I have this API working in 2.1.0, what do you think? I'd like a feedback before I close this or code something more on top of it.

     var validator = new ZSchema();
     validator.compileSchema([schemaA, schemaB, mainSchema]).then(function () {
         return validator.validate({a: 1, b: "b", c: "C"}, mainSchema).then(function (report) {
             assert.isTrue(report.valid);
             done();
         });
     })

You can push as many schemas as you want into compile, just the order has to be correct as you can't compile mainSchema before schemaA and schemaB are compiled. Validator remembers schemas it compiled so you don't have to compile everything in one go.

API is ok with the exception of "the order has to be correct". It's quite a complex task to ensure the order of the schemas in the list if you just read the schemas from a folder. Because I don't know anything about the schemas (except that there exists a main schema), to ensure the correct order of the schemas, I have to scan all attributes of all schemas, check whether it's a ref, search that ref in the other schemas ... That's a task that I don't expect do have been done by a library user.

Yes, you have a point there ... I'll try to think of something.

@k7sleeper "the order has to be correct" is now fixed in 2.2.1.
You can test if you want. I'd land it sooner but I was on holiday ;-)

Thanks, it works as expected for me!
