``jsonschema`` is an implementation of the `JSON Schema <https://json-schema.org>`_ specification for Python.
.. code:: 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 the command line by installing `check-jsonschema <https://github.com/python-jsonschema/check-jsonschema>`_.
Features
--------
* Full support for `Draft 2020-12 <https://python-jsonschema.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api/jsonschema/validators/#jsonschema.validators.Draft202012Validator>`_, `Draft 2019-09 <https://python-jsonschema.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api/jsonschema/validators/#jsonschema.validators.Draft201909Validator>`_, `Draft 7 <https://python-jsonschema.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api/jsonschema/validators/#jsonschema.validators.Draft7Validator>`_, `Draft 6 <https://python-jsonschema.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api/jsonschema/validators/#jsonschema.validators.Draft6Validator>`_, `Draft 4 <https://python-jsonschema.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api/jsonschema/validators/#jsonschema.validators.Draft4Validator>`_ and `Draft 3 <https://python-jsonschema.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api/jsonschema/validators/#jsonschema.validators.Draft3Validator>`_
* `Lazy validation <https://python-jsonschema.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api/jsonschema/protocols/#jsonschema.protocols.Validator.iter_errors>`_ that can iteratively report *all* validation errors.
* `Programmatic querying <https://python-jsonschema.readthedocs.io/en/latest/errors/>`_ of which properties or items failed validation.
Installation
------------
``jsonschema`` is available on `PyPI <https://pypi.org/project/jsonschema/>`_. You can install using `pip <https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/>`_:
.. code:: bash
$ 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.:
.. code:: bash
$ 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 <https://python-jsonschema.readthedocs.io/en/latest/validate/#validating-formats>`_ for further details.

Running the Test Suite
----------------------
If you have ``tox`` installed (perhaps via ``pip install tox`` or your package manager), running ``tox`` in the directory of your source checkout will run ``jsonschema``'s test suite on all of the versions of Python ``jsonschema`` supports.
If you don't have all of the versions that ``jsonschema`` is tested under, you'll likely want to run using ``tox``'s ``--skip-missing-interpreters`` option.
Of course you're also free to just run the tests on a single version with your favorite test runner.
The tests live in the ``jsonschema.tests`` package.
Benchmarks
----------
``jsonschema``'s benchmarks make use of `pyperf <https://pyperf.readthedocs.io>`_.
Running them can be done via::
$ tox -e perf
Community
---------
The JSON Schema specification has `a Slack <https://json-schema.slack.com>`_, with an `invite link on its home page <https://json-schema.org/>`_.
Many folks knowledgeable on authoring schemas can be found there.
Otherwise, opening a `GitHub discussion <https://github.com/python-jsonschema/jsonschema/discussions>`_ or asking questions on Stack Overflow are other means of getting help if you're stuck.
