public interface Ref
$ref resolver. This interface is used to resolve $ref in a JsonObject. The result
is a new JsonObject with all the $ref replaced by actual object references.
This new object allows navigation and queries using JsonPointer but will not be
able to be encoded back to JSON when circular dependencies are present.
The resolver will only resolve local references as defined in RFC3986. A local reference is a reference that starts
with # and is followed by a valid JSON Pointer.| Modifier and Type | Method and Description |
|---|---|
static JsonObject |
resolve(JsonObject json)
Resolve all
$ref in the given JsonObject. |
static JsonObject resolve(JsonObject json)
$ref in the given JsonObject. The resolution algorithm is not aware of other
specifications. When resolving OpenAPI documents (which only allow $ref at specific locations) you
should validate if the document is valid before performing a resolution.
It is important to note that any sibling elements of a $ref is ignored. This is because $ref
works by replacing itself and everything on its level with the definition it is pointing at.json - the JSON object to resolve.$ref replaced by actual object references.IllegalArgumentException - when the input JSON is not valid.UnsupportedOperationException - reducing the JSON pointer to a value is undefined.Copyright © 2023 Eclipse.
