Relative references pointers in multiple directories and files

Open ylaizet opened this issue 4 years ago • 0 comments

I have 3 json schemas in 2 directories, for example:

/working/A.json
/ressource/B.json
/ressource/C.json

As shown, B and C schemas are in the same directory.

A uses relative references from B (from another directory):

"$ref": "../ressource/B.json#/definitions/myItemFromB"

and B uses relative references from C (from the same directory):

"$ref": "C.json#/definitions/myItemFromC"

If I load A with a base_uri = /working/ and print it, I get a path error for B referencing C:

jsonref.JsonRefError: URLError: <urlopen error [Errno 2] No such file or directory: /working/C.json

meaning that in jsonref, does not "update" the base_uri when jumping to a different schema file when following references chain. Indeed, I would expect jsonref to search in /ressource/C.json.

How can I get the behavior I expect there?
