[Dev] JSON schema for JSON payloads without a root element - visual datamapper editor

[Sohani Weerasinghe]

Hi All,

Since there can be JSON payloads without a root element as shown below, we
are in a process of generating the JSON schema for such payloads. Please
find the implementation details

eg 1:

*Input*:

[
"777925",
"732321"
]

*JSON schema:*

{
  "$schema" : "http://json-schema.org/draft-04/schema#";,
  "id" : "http://wso2jsonschema.org";,
  "title" : "root",
  "type" : "array",
  "items" : {
    "id" : "http://wso2jsonschema.org/0";,
    "type" : "string"
  }
}


​eg 2:

*Input*:

[
   {
     "id": 0,
     "species": "Capra hircus",
     "name": "Goat"
   },
   {
     "id": 1,
     "species": "Panthera pardus",
     "name": "Leopard"
   },
   {
     "id": 2,
     "species": "Equus zebra",
     "name": "Zebra"
   }
 ]

*JSON Schema:*

{
  "$schema" : "http://json-schema.org/draft-04/schema#";,
  "id" : "http://wso2jsonschema.org";,
  "title" : "root",
  "type" : "array",
  "items" : {
    "id" : "http://wso2jsonschema.org/0";,
    "type" : "object",
    "properties" : {
      "species" : {
        "id" : "http://wso2jsonschema.org/0/species";,
        "type" : "string"
      },
      "name" : {
        "id" : "http://wso2jsonschema.org/0/name";,
        "type" : "string"
      },
      "id" : {
        "id" : "http://wso2jsonschema.org/0/id";,
        "type" : "number"
      }
    }
  }
}
