json-schema-inferrer

Java library for inferring JSON schema based on sample JSONs.

Demo site

Here is a simple demo site for this library that showcases some of the things it's capable of.

Sample usage

import java.util.Arrays;
import com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.JsonNode;
import com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.ObjectMapper;
import com.saasquatch.jsonschemainferrer.*;

public class Example {

  private static final ObjectMapper mapper = new ObjectMapper();
  private static final JsonSchemaInferrer inferrer = JsonSchemaInferrer.newBuilder()
      .setSpecVersion(SpecVersion.DRAFT_06)
      // Requires commons-validator
      .addFormatInferrers(FormatInferrers.email(), FormatInferrers.ip())
      .setAdditionalPropertiesPolicy(AdditionalPropertiesPolicies.notAllowed())
      .setRequiredPolicy(RequiredPolicies.nonNullCommonFields())
      .addEnumExtractors(EnumExtractors.validEnum(java.time.Month.class),
          EnumExtractors.validEnum(java.time.DayOfWeek.class))
      .build();

  public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
    final JsonNode sample1 = mapper.readTree(
        "{\"🙈\":\"https://saasquatch.com\",\"🙉\":[-1.5,2,\"[email protected]\",false],\"🙊\":3,\"weekdays\":[\"MONDAY\",\"TUESDAY\"]}");
    final JsonNode sample2 = mapper.readTree(
        "{\"🙈\":1,\"🙉\":{\"🐒\":true,\"🐵\":[2,\"1234:5678::\"],\"🍌\":null},\"🙊\":null,\"months\":[\"JANUARY\",\"FEBRUARY\"]}");
    final JsonNode resultForSample1 = inferrer.inferForSample(sample1);
    final JsonNode resultForSample1And2 =
        inferrer.inferForSamples(Arrays.asList(sample1, sample2));
    for (JsonNode j : Arrays.asList(sample1, sample2, resultForSample1, resultForSample1And2)) {
      System.out.println(mapper.writeValueAsString(j));
    }
  }

}

In the code above, sample1 is:

{
  "🙈": "https://saasquatch.com",
  "🙉": [-1.5, 2, "[email protected]", false],
  "🙊": 3,
  "weekdays": ["MONDAY", "TUESDAY"]
}

sample2 is:

{
  "🙈": 1,
  "🙉": { "🐒": true, "🐵": [2, "1234:5678::"], "🍌": null },
  "🙊": null,
  "months": ["JANUARY", "FEBRUARY"]
}

resultForSample1 is:

{
  "$schema": "http://json-schema.org/draft-06/schema#",
  "type": "object",
  "properties": {
    "🙈": { "type": "string" },
    "🙊": { "type": "integer" },
    "weekdays": { "type": "array", "items": { "enum": ["MONDAY", "TUESDAY"] } },
    "🙉": {
      "type": "array",
      "items": {
        "anyOf": [
          { "type": ["number", "boolean"] },
          { "type": "string", "format": "email" }
        ]
      }
    }
  },
  "additionalProperties": false,
  "required": ["🙈", "🙊", "weekdays", "🙉"]
}

And resultForSample1And2 is:

{
  "$schema": "http://json-schema.org/draft-06/schema#",
  "type": "object",
  "properties": {
    "🙈": { "type": ["string", "integer"] },
    "months": { "type": "array", "items": { "enum": ["JANUARY", "FEBRUARY"] } },
    "🙊": { "type": ["null", "integer"] },
    "weekdays": { "type": "array", "items": { "enum": ["MONDAY", "TUESDAY"] } },
    "🙉": {
      "anyOf": [
        {
          "type": "object",
          "properties": {
            "🐵": {
              "type": "array",
              "items": {
                "anyOf": [
                  { "type": "integer" },
                  { "type": "string", "format": "ipv6" }
                ]
              }
            },
            "🍌": { "type": "null" },
            "🐒": { "type": "boolean" }
          },
          "additionalProperties": false,
          "required": ["🐵", "🐒"]
        },
        {
          "type": "array",
          "items": {
            "anyOf": [
              { "type": ["number", "boolean"] },
              { "type": "string", "format": "email" }
            ]
          }
        }
      ]
    }
  },
  "additionalProperties": false,
  "required": ["🙈", "🙉"]
}

Transitive Dependencies

This project requires Java 8. The only required transitive dependencies are Jackson and FindBugs (JSR305). If you opt into using some of the built-in FormatInferrers, Commons Validator will also be needed. This is encapsulated with a Gradle feature variant named builtInFormatInferrerSupport.
