phase

Phase provides a simple, intuitive, easy to write and easy to process schema language for declaring type information that can be transformed into formal JSON Schema, used for validating JSON data.

Example

Phase Schema

The following Phase schema sample is based on the Swagger Petstore schema:

Pet {
   id integer @format('int64')
   name string @required
   category $Category
   photoUrls [string] @required
   tags [$Tag]
   status string @description('pet status in the store')
                 @enum('available', 'pending', 'sold')
}

Category {
  id integer @format('int64')
  name string
}

Tag {
  id integer @format('int64')
  name string
}

JSON Schema

Phase transforms this into the following JSON Schema:

{
  "definitions": {
    "Pet": {
      "type": "object",
      "required": [
        "name",
        "photoUrls"
      ],
      "properties": {
        "id": {
          "type": "integer",
          "format": "int64"
        },
        "category": {},
        "name": {
          "type": "string"
        },
        "photoUrls": {
          "type": "array",
          "items": {
            "type": "string"
          }
        },
        "tags": {
          "type": "array",
          "items": {
            "$ref": "#/definitions/Tag"
          }
        },
        "status": {
          "type": "string",
          "description": "pet status in the store",
          "enum": [
            "available",
            "pending",
            "sold"
          ]
        }
      }
    },
    "Category": {
      "type": "object",
      "properties": {
        "id": {
          "type": "integer",
          "format": "int64"
        },
        "name": {
          "type": "string"
        }
      }
    },
    "Tag": {
      "type": "object",
      "properties": {
        "id": {
          "type": "integer",
          "format": "int64"
        },
        "name": {
          "type": "string"
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

JSON Data

According to the schema, the following is a valid instance:

{
  "name": "Fido",
  "photoUrls": []
}

And so is this:

{
  "id": 101,
  "name": "Fido",
  "category": {
    "id": "10",
    "name": "Boxer"
  },
  "photoUrls": [ "https://pixabay.com/static/uploads/photo/2014/07/05/08/50/puppy-384647_640.jpg" ],
  "tags": [ "puppy" ]
}
