A jsonschema CLI and pre-commit hook
Project description
check-jsonschema
A pre-commit hook for checking files against a JSONSchema, built using the python jsonschema package. The schema may be specified as a local or remote (HTTP or HTTPS) file.
Remote files are automatically downloaded and cached if possible.
Supported Hooks
The most generic hook is this one:
-
check-jsonschema: Validate JSON or YAML files against a jsonschema on disk or fetched via HTTP(S) -
check-metaschema: Validate JSON Schema files against their matching metaschema, as specified in their"$schema"key
The following hooks check specific files against various schemas provided by SchemaStore and other sources:
-
check-azure-pipelines: Validate Azure Pipelines config against the schema provided by Microsoft -
check-bamboo-spec: Validate Bamboo Specs against the schema provided by SchemaStore -
check-github-actions: Validate GitHub Actions against the schema provided by SchemaStore -
check-github-workflows: Validate GitHub Workflows against the schema provided by SchemaStore -
check-gitlab-ci: Validate GitLab CI config against the schema provided by SchemaStore -
check-readthedocs: Validate ReadTheDocs config against the schema provided by ReadTheDocs -
check-renovate: Validate Renovate config against the schema provided by Renovate (does not support renovate config in package.json) -
check-travis: Validate Travis Config against the schema provided by SchemaStore
Example Usage
Validate GitHub Workflows with Schemastore
You can use the schemastore github workflow schema to lint your GitHub workflow
files. All you need to add to your .pre-commit-config.yaml is this:
- repo: https://github.com/python-jsonschema/check-jsonschema
rev: 0.14.0
hooks:
- id: check-github-workflows
Applying an arbitrary schema to files
There is a more general hook available for running any jsonschema against a file or set of files. For example, to implement the GitHub workflow check manually, you could do this:
- repo: https://github.com/python-jsonschema/check-jsonschema
rev: 0.14.0
hooks:
- id: check-jsonschema
name: "Check GitHub Workflows"
files: ^\.github/workflows/
types: [yaml]
args: ["--schemafile", "https://json.schemastore.org/github-workflow"]
And to check with the builtin schema that a GitHub workflow sets
timeout-minutes on all jobs:
- repo: https://github.com/python-jsonschema/check-jsonschema
rev: 0.14.0
hooks:
- id: check-jsonschema
name: "Check GitHub Workflows set timeout-minutes"
files: ^\.github/workflows/
types: [yaml]
args: ["--builtin-schema", "github-workflows-require-timeout"]
Standalone Usage
You can also pip install check-jsonschema to run the tool manually.
For full usage info:
check-jsonschema --help
CLI Options
These options apply both to standalone usage and pre-commit hook usage.
--schemafile
The path or URL for a file containing a schema to use.
This option is required unless --builtin-schema or --check-metaschema is used.
--builtin-schema
The name of a builtin schema from check-jsonschema to use.
Use of this option replaces --schemafile, and the two are mutually exclusive.
The following values are valid and refer to vendored copies schemas from SchemaStore and other sources:
vendor.azure-pipelinesvendor.bamboo-specvendor.github-actionsvendor.github-workflowsvendor.gitlab-civendor.readthedocsvendor.renovatevendor.travis
The following values refer to custom schemas:
github-workflows-require-timeout-- This schema checks that a GitHub workflow explicitly setstimeout-minuteson all jobs. (The default value for this is 6 hours.)
--check-metaschema
Validate each instancefile as a JSON Schema, using the relevant metaschema
defined in "$schema".
This option replaces --schemafile and --builtin-schema, and these options
are mutually exclusive.
--default-filetype
The default filetype to assume on instance files when they are detected neither as JSON nor as YAML.
For example, pass --default-filetype yaml to instruct that files which have
no extension should be treated as YAML.
By default, this is not set and files without a detected type of JSON or YAML will fail.
--data-transform
--data-transform applies a transformation to instancefiles before they are
checked. The following transforms are supported:
azure-pipelines: "Unpack" compile-time expressions for Azure Pipelines files, skipping them for the purposes of validation. This transformation is based on Microsoft's lanaguage-server for VSCode and how it handles expressions
Downloading and Caching Options
By default, when --schemafile is used to refer to an http:// or https://
location, the schema is downloaded and cached based on the schema's
Last-Modified time. The following options control caching behaviors.
--no-cache
Disable caching. Do not cache downloaded schemas.
--cache-filename
The name to use for caching a remote schema.
Defaults to using the last slash-delimited part of the URI.
"format" Validation Options
JSON Schema defines a "format" attribute for string fields but does not require
that any validation for formats be applied.
check-jsonschema supports checking several "format"s by default. The
following options can be used to control this behavior.
--disable-format
Disable all "format" checks.
Because "format" checking is not done by all JSON Schema tools, it is
possible that a file may validate under a schema with a different tool, but
fail with check-jsonschema if --disable-format is not set.
--format-regex
Set a mode for handling of the "regex" value for "format". The modes are as
follows:
| mode | description |
|---|---|
| disabled | Skip checking regex, but leave other formats enabled. |
| default | Check for known non-python regex syntaxes. If one is found, the expression always passes. Otherwise, check validity in the python engine. |
| python | Require the regex to be valid in python regex syntax. |
Error Handling Options
--show-all-validation-errors
On validation errors, show all of the underlying errors which occurred.
This is useful when a schema contains oneOf and anyOf clauses that make the
default error message uninformative.
--traceback-mode
By default, when an error is encountered, check-jsonschema will pretty-print
the error and exit.
Use --traceback-mode full to request the full traceback be printed, for
debugging and troubleshooting.
Optional Parsers
check-jsonschema comes with out-of-the-box support for the JSON and YAML file
formats. Additional optional parsers may be installed, and are supported when
present.
JSON5
In order to support JSON5 files, either the pyjson5 or json5 package must
be installed.
In pre-commit-config.yaml, this can be done with additional_dependencies.
For example,
- repo: https://github.com/python-jsonschema/check-jsonschema
rev: 0.14.0
hooks:
- id: check-renovate
additional_dependencies: ['pyjson5']
