SafetyCulture API JSON schemas

JSON schemas of data structures exposed by the SafetyCulture public API.

They are useful e.g. to integrators wishing to validate data exported by the SafetyCulture API.

For more details see the SafetyCulture developer portal.

Usage

npm install @safetyculture/api-json-schemas

const safetyCultureApiJsonSchemas = require('@safetyculture/api-json-schemas');

// Outputs the audit public JSON schema
console.log(safetyCultureApiJsonSchemas.audit);

// Outputs common definition schemas used in the audit public JSON schema
console.log(safetyCultureApiJsonSchemas.definitions);

// Outputs the geometry schema used to represent audit location properties
console.log(safetyCultureApiJsonSchemas.geometry);

Validation example

Add a file to your project that exposes a validator like this:

const Validator = require('jsonschema').Validator;
const publicApiJsonSchema = require('@safetyculture/api-json-schemas');

function createValidator() {
  const validator = new Validator();

  const SUB_SCHEMAS = [
    publicApiJsonSchema.definitions,
    publicApiJsonSchema.geometry
  ];

  SUB_SCHEMAS.forEach((subSchema) => {
    validator.addSchema(subSchema);
  });

  return validator;
}

/**
 * Checks if 'doc' is in a valid API audit JSON format.
 *
 * @param doc {Object} to check
 * @param options {Object} see json-schema.org for configuration options
 * @return {ValidatorResult} the result of validation against the schema (see the jsonschema NPM module for details)
 */
module.exports = function validate(doc, options) {
  if (!doc || typeof doc !== 'object') {
    throw new Error('Input to API schema validation function is not an object');
  }

  const validator = createValidator();
  return validator.validate(doc, publicApiJsonSchema.audit, options);
};
