Validate data

This command validates data files against JSON-schema

pajv validate -s test/schema.json -d test/valid_data.json
pajv -s test/schema.json -d test/valid_data.json

You can omit validate command name.

Parameters

-s - file name of JSON-schema

Only one schema can be passed in this parameter

-d - JSON data

Multiple data files can be passed, as in -r parameter:

pajv -s test/schema.json -d "test/valid*.json"

If some file is invalid exit code will be 1.

-r - referenced schemas

The schema in -s parameter can reference any of these schemas with $ref keyword.

Multiple schemas can be passed both by using this parameter mupltiple times and with glob patterns. Glob pattern should be quoted and extensions cannot be omitted.

-m - meta-schemas

Schemas can use any of these schemas as a meta-schema (that is the schema used in $schema keyword - it is used to validate the schema itself).

Multiple meta-schemas can be passed, as in -r parameter.

-c - custom keywords/formats definitions

You can pass module(s) that define custom keywords/formats. The modules should export a function that accepts Ajv instance as a parameter. The file name should start with ".", it will be resolved relative to the current folder. The package name can also be passed - it will be used in require as is.

For example, you can use -c ajv-keywords to add all keywords from ajv-keywords package or -c ajv-keywords/keywords/typeof to add only typeof keyword.

Options

  • --errors=: error reporting format. Possible values:

    • js (default): JavaScript object
    • json: JSON with indentation and line-breaks
    • line: JSON without indentaion/line-breaks (for easy parsing)
    • text: human readable error messages with data paths
  • --changes=: detect changes in data after validation. Data can be modifyed with Ajv options --remove-additional, --use-defaults and --coerce-types). The changes are reported in JSON-patch format (RFC6902). Possible values are js (default), json and line (see --errors option).

Test validation result

This command asserts that the result of the validation is as expected.

pajv test -s test/schema.json -d test/valid_data.json --valid
pajv test -s test/schema.json -d test/invalid_data.json --invalid

If the option --valid (--invalid) is used for the test to pass (exit code 0) the data file(s) should be valid (invalid).

This command supports the same options and parameters as validate with the exception of --changes.
