This is a fork of https://github.com/coursera/autoschema that merges several sanity updates and updates some features to be of use with the current status of JSON schemas.

This fork is published on maven central. See Installation section for instructions.

Features

• Generates JSON Schema from classes
• Annotate your classes to customize schema generation
• Supports common types
  • Seq, Lists, Arrays, etc.
  • Options
  • java.util.Date and Joda DateTime
  • String, Boolean, Int, Long, Double
  • java.util.UUID
• Caching of generated schema

Unsupported Features

• Play Framework JSON types

Add this line to your build.sbt:

    libraryDependencies += "com.sauldhernandez" %% "autoschema" % "1.0.4"

With a type parameter

    case class MyType(myValue: Int)
    AutoSchema.createSchema[MyType]

With a reflection type

    AutoSchema.createSchema(myReflectionType)

AutoSchema has a few annotations that you can use to customize generated schema

Lets you manually define comments for case clases and fields which are translated in a description field of the commented element in the JSON schema.

    @Description("This is my class")
    case class MyClass(@Term.Description("This is my field") myField: String)

Lets you manually set the type and format values of the schema to be generated for a specific type or value

    @FormatAs("string", "date")
    case class MyDateType

    case class MyType(@Term.FormatAs("string", "date") date: String)

Lets you use the schema of some type as the schema for another type or value

    @ExposeAs[Int]
    case class MyIntLikeType

    case class MyType(@Term.ExposeAs[Id] id: MyTypeId)

Lets you hide a value in generated schema

    case class MyType(@Term.Hide mySecretField: Int)
