:rocket: Quickstart

1. Add dependency

yarn add schematized

1. Basic usage : See output

import { SchemaBuilder } from 'schematized' // Typescript & ES6+
const { SchemaBuilder } = require('schematized') // CommonJS

const builder = new SchemaBuilder()

// Consume JSON
builder.addObject({
  token: '74aea1a53d68b77e4f1f55fa90a7eb81',
  role: ['Basic'],
})

// Produce JSON Schemas!
const schema = builder.toPrettySchema()

1. Improve the schema with examples : See output

...

builder.addObject({
  token: 'Bearer 6498d9afc96d1d8d881a2b7ded4f9290',
  role: [
    'Admin',
    'Basic',
    'Publisher'
  ]
})

1. Improve the schema with existing schemas : See output

...

builder.addSchema({
  title: '/user response',
  description: 'User data from server.'
})
