Project description

PyPI version Supported Python versions Build status ReadTheDocs status pre-commit.ci status Zenodo

jsonschema is an implementation of the JSON Schema specification for Python.

>>> from jsonschema import validate

>>> # A sample schema, like what we'd get from json.load()
>>> schema = {
...     "type" : "object",
...     "properties" : {
...         "price" : {"type" : "number"},
...         "name" : {"type" : "string"},
...     },
... }

>>> # If no exception is raised by validate(), the instance is valid.
>>> validate(instance={"name" : "Eggs", "price" : 34.99}, schema=schema)

>>> validate(
...     instance={"name" : "Eggs", "price" : "Invalid"}, schema=schema,
... )                                   # doctest: +IGNORE_EXCEPTION_DETAIL
Traceback (most recent call last):
    ...
ValidationError: 'Invalid' is not of type 'number'

It can also be used from console:

$ jsonschema --instance sample.json sample.schema

Features

Installation

jsonschema is available on PyPI. You can install using pip:

$ pip install jsonschema

Extras

Two extras are available when installing the package, both currently related to format validation:

  • format

  • format-nongpl

They can be used when installing in order to include additional dependencies, e.g.:

$ pip install jsonschema'[format]'

Be aware that the mere presence of these dependencies – or even the specification of format checks in a schema – do not activate format checks (as per the specification). Please read the format validation documentation for further details.
