Form Builder Specifications

JSON Schemas defining Form Builder core components

Usage

In your components module

npm install @solidgoldpig/fb-specifications --save-dev

To lint schemas and schema test data and validate the schemas

test-specifications

Specifications

Location

specifications/${name}/${name}.schema.json

Definitions

Location

specifications/definition/${name}/${name}.definition.schema.json

Specification examples

Examples for the schemas are JSON files located in a data directory at the same level as the schema file.

Valid examples should be in

specifications/${name}/data/valid/

data.invalid/*.json

specifications/${name}/data/invalid/

Validating schemas

NB. All of the following commands should be run from the fb-specification root directory:

Validate all the schemas

Check that test data in each specification’s directory validates against the corresponding schema.

npm run test:schemas

Validating a single schema

This command will use the data in the specified schema’s examples directory

node validate.js -s {schemaName}

Validating other files

Validate a single file or directory

node validate.js {path}

Testing for invalidity

Pass the -i flag (or --invalid)

node validate.js {path} -i

Other options for the command line validator

By default, all errors encountered are displayed. To show only the first error encountered, use the --n-a flag (or --no-allErrors)

node validate.js {path} --help

Validating/linting data

npm run lint

this runs

• lint:schemas
• lint:data

which checks that the files are valid JSON

To format the JSON files

• format:schemas
• format:data

Generating documentation

General documentation is located in the documentation directory.

Schemas that have a corresponding .schema.md file will have that content included in the schema’a documentation.

Data test files that have a corresponding .md file will be included in a spec's documentation as examples

1. Check out fb-documentation
2. node expandAll.js
