OpenAPI Schema to JSON Schema
A little NodeJS package to convert OpenAPI Schema Object or Parameter Object to JSON Schema.
Currently converts from OpenAPI 3.0 to JSON Schema Draft 4.
Why?
OpenAPI is a specification for describing RESTful APIs. OpenAPI v3.0 allows us to describe the structures of request and response payloads in a detailed manner. This would, theoretically, mean that we should be able to automatically validate request and response payloads. However, as of writing there aren't many validators around.
The good news is that there are many validators for JSON Schema for different languages. The bad news is that OpenAPI v3.0 is not entirely compatible with JSON Schema. The Schema Object of OpenAPI v3.0 is an extended subset of JSON Schema Specification Wright Draft 00 with some differences. This will be resolved in OpenAPI v3.1, but until then... this tool will fill that gap.
There is also a CLI tool for creating a JSON of schemas from the whole API specification.
If you need to do the conversion in reverse, checkout json-schema-to-openapi-schema.
Features
- converts OpenAPI v3.0 Schema Object to JSON Schema Draft 4
- converts OpenAPI v3.0 Parameter Object to JSON Schema Draft 4
- deletes
nullable
and adds"null"
totype
array ifnullable
istrue
- supports deep structures with nested
allOf
s etc. - removes OpenAPI specific properties such as
discriminator
,deprecated
etc. unless specified otherwise - optionally supports
patternProperties
withx-patternProperties
in the Schema Object
NOTE: $ref
s are not handled in any way, so please use a resolver such as json-schema-ref-parser or swagger-cli bundle prior to using this package.
Installation
npm install --save @openapi-contrib/openapi-schema-to-json-schema
Converting OpenAPI schema
Here's a small example to get the idea:
var toJsonSchema = require('@openapi-contrib/openapi-schema-to-json-schema');
var schema = {
type: 'string',
format: 'date-time',
nullable: true
};
var convertedSchema = toJsonSchema(schema);
console.log(convertedSchema);
The example prints out
{
type: ['string', 'null'],
format: 'date-time',
'$schema': 'http://json-schema.org/draft-04/schema#'
}
Provide the function the schema object with possible options.
Options
The function accepts options
object as the second argument.
cloneSchema
(boolean)
If set to false
, converts the provided schema in place. If true
, clones the schema by converting it to JSON and back. The overhead of the cloning is usually negligible. Defaults to true
.
dateToDateTime
(boolean)
This is false
by default and leaves date
format as is. If set to true
, sets format: 'date'
to format: 'date-time'
.
For example
var schema = {
type: 'string',
format: 'date'
};
var convertedSchema = toJsonSchema(schema, { dateToDateTime: true });
console.log(convertedSchema);
prints
{
type: 'string',
format: 'date-time',
'$schema': 'http://json-schema.org/draft-04/schema#'
}
keepNotSupported
(array)
By default, the following fields are removed from the result schema: nullable
, discriminator
, readOnly
, writeOnly
, xml
, externalDocs
, example
and deprecated
as they are not supported by JSON Schema Draft 4. Provide an array of the ones you want to keep (as strings) and they won't be removed.
removeReadOnly
(boolean)
If set to true
, will remove properties set as readOnly
. If the property is set as required
, it will be removed from the required
array as well. The property will be removed even if readOnly
is set to be kept with keepNotSupported
.
removeWriteOnly
(boolean)
Similar to removeReadOnly
, but for writeOnly
properties.
supportPatternProperties
(boolean)
If set to true
and x-patternProperties
property is present, change x-patternProperties
to patternProperties
and call patternPropertiesHandler
. If patternPropertiesHandler
is not defined, call the default handler. See patternPropertiesHandler
for more information.
patternPropertiesHandler
(function)
Provide a function to handle pattern properties and set supportPatternProperties
to take effect. The function takes the schema where x-patternProperties
is defined on the root level. At this point x-patternProperties
is changed to patternProperties
. It must return the modified schema.
If the handler is not provided, the default handler is used. If additionalProperties
is set and is an object, the default handler sets it to false if the additionalProperties
object has deep equality with a pattern object inside patternProperties
. This is because we might want to define additionalProperties
in OpenAPI spec file, but want to validate against a pattern. The pattern would turn out to be useless if additionalProperties
of the same structure were allowed. Create you own handler to override this functionality.
See test/pattern_properties.test.js
for examples how this works.
Converting OpenAPI parameters
OpenAPI parameters can be converted:
var toJsonSchema = require('@openapi-contrib/openapi-schema-to-json-schema').fromParameter;
var param = {
name: 'parameter name',
in: 'query',
schema: {
type: 'string',
format: 'date'
}
}
var convertedSchema = toJsonSchema(param);
console.log(convertedSchema);
The result is as follows:
{
type: 'string',
format: 'date',
'$schema': 'http://json-schema.org/draft-04/schema#'
}
When a parameter has several schemas (one per MIME type) a map is returned instead.
{
name: 'parameter name',
in: 'query',
content: {
'application/javascript': {
schema: {
type: 'string'
}
},
'text/css': {
schema: {
type: 'string'
}
}
}
}
would be converted to:
{
'application/javascript': {
type: 'string',
'$schema': 'http://json-schema.org/draft-04/schema#'
},
'text/css': {
type: 'string',
'$schema': 'http://json-schema.org/draft-04/schema#'
}
}
