avoid some properties?

[Carlos Rojas]

Hi,

I developed a sinatra API and tried to use json-schema validator creating a json file for each resource (customers, articles), but i have some questions.

1) It is possible to avoid some properties in validation process?

for example in a POST request i don't need a some properties, but yes in a PUT request i think it's no good idea have different schemas for each type of request.

2) When i do a JSON::Validator.fully_validate(schema_path, data) the errors message have the file path of the schema, i delete that part doing a gsub because i return the error message. Is there a more appropriate way to do this?

3) How i can return proporly a blank schema?

Not sure if this is okay:

get '/v1/costumers/schema.json' do

        begin

          status 200

          body(File.open('costumers.json'))

        rescue => e

          status 400

          body({:error => e.message}.to_json)

end

Thanks
