I have observed how a JSON schema can be utilized to construct dynamic arrays.
My goal is to develop a JSON web form using a JSON schema that allows for objects (dictionaries) to be expandable similar to arrays.
For example, you can visit the demonstration site: .
In this demo, the schema for the form on line 69 is of type array
. It includes items of type object
. However, I aim to enable users of the form to define both the key and value within the form itself. This would allow me to dynamically create dictionaries. Essentially, I wish to modify line 69 from array
to object
, incorporate additional schema definitions indicating key properties, and generate JSON containing expandable objects.
It's possible that my struggle lies in understanding the capabilities of JSON schema. Is there a guideline within the schema definition requiring the inclusion of dynamic objects (where both the key and object structure need to be entered into the form)?
To illustrate my objective, consider the following schema:
{
"type": "array",
"items": {
"type": "string"
}
}
This schema produces:
[
"abc"
]
What I seek is a schema that generates a form capable of producing a JSON output like:
{
"key1": "abc",
"key2": "xyz",
}
Where "abc"
or "xyz"
could be any valid JSON type or complex structure (with corresponding adjustments in the schema), and numerous key/value pairs are permitted in the object.
Therefore, the question posed is: How can I utilize a JSON schema to build a form with dynamic objects as well as dynamic arrays? Any examples of implementations are appreciated.
