history

Project history and usage

check-jsonschema is a Python CLI and pre-commit hook for validating JSON, YAML, and related configuration files against JSON Schema.

Project history

The repository and first PyPI release both date to January 2021. The project is part of the python-jsonschema GitHub organization and is documented as a CLI and hook built on the jsonschema library, with local and remote schema support.

Adoption history

The README and documentation show two adoption paths: direct CLI installation with pipx or Homebrew, and use as a pre-commit hook. The batch input records additional packaging in Alpine, Nix, and Arch Linux.

How it is used

A common command is `check-jsonschema --schemafile schema.json instance.json`. The tool can also use built-in schemas for GitHub Actions, Azure Pipelines, Renovate, GitLab CI, Read the Docs, Dependabot, and other configuration formats.

Why package nerds care

Package nerds care because check-jsonschema packages SchemaStore-style validation and pre-commit integration into one small command, making repository metadata, CI files, and dependency-bot configs checkable from editors, hooks, and CI.

Timeline

  • 2021: GitHub repository created.
  • 2021: 0.1.0 uploaded to PyPI.
  • 2023: 0.23.x releases published on GitHub.
  • 2026: Documentation version 0.37.4 published on Read the Docs.

Related projects

  • python-jsonschema/jsonschema is the underlying validation library.
  • pre-commit is a primary integration surface.
  • SchemaStore and vendor CI/config schemas are used through built-in schema choices.
