How-To: Validate your YAML file

Visit the CDNF.io YAML Editor website

Import/paste a valid draft-04 JSON Schema, or use the existing example, via the folder icon, in the JSON Schema tab, on the right.

{
  "type": "object",
  "properties": {
    "user": {
      "type": "object",
      "properties": {
        "id": {
          "$ref": "#/definitions/positiveInt"
        },
        "name": {
          "type": "string"

            }
          }
        },

        "name",
        "birthday",

Valid YAML File

Limitations

The JSON Schema specification recommends to use the definitions key, where all definitions should be located. Then, you should use a relative path to point to the definitions.

Our implementation of the JSON schema requires a definitions object, if the ref ID links to a definition and does not use a relative path.

Supported: JSON Schema draft-04 (and included features, such as valid formats, etc.)
Not supported: Loading definitions from external URIs
