Error occurs if OneOf and AllOf are nested
Make the Json-schema-validator program capable of handling nested OneOf and AllOf constructs.
NG Case
Can you provide unit test cases or at least the schema and data to elaborate on what errors you are encountering with this? I have tried but don't see anything unusual.

Given your test examples I don't see the issue. It looks like your issue is because you are placing type: object
everywhere which is going to affect the result.
Take the following for instance
Example1:
anyOf:
- type: object
- $ref: '#/components/schemas/SampleData1'
- $ref: '#/components/schemas/SampleData2'
description: ""
type: object
Because you placed type: object
under anyOf
, as long as an object
is input the result will always validate successfully. This is also different from your diagram where you only have 2 children. There are instead 3 children of anyOf
of which one is type: object
. This applies to all your other examples where type: object
is a child of anyOf
, allOf
and oneOf
.
@justin-tay I am working on the test data now, so please wait a moment.
@justin-tay Attached are the json-schema and json-data for the cases where the behavior is questionable. Thank you very much for your confirmation.
If the element names in the json are the same
"Example1_1" : {

}
test data json data - case1 : The values are all null. anyOf setting would cause an error if all elements are null.
"exampleX_1_0" : {
},
- case2 : The first and second child elements are null, but there is no error (should be an error)
"exampleX_1_8" : {
"data" : "value1"
},
※If ↓, an error occurs at AnyOf.
"exampleX_1_1" : {
"data" : "data"

※If ↓, an error occurs at AnyOf.

"exampleX_3_4" : {
"data2" : true
},
I had a look but I don't see any issue with the behavior.
If there truly is an issue with oneOf
or allOf
you should use true
and false
to demonstrate this. Instead this looks like you don't really understand how the properties
keyword works and you don't understand what happens when you have duplicate keys in JSON.
The properties
keyword only does validation if the key exists, otherwise it will validate successfully. If you want an error if the key doesn't exist you need to use the required
keyword.
Duplicate keys in JSON isn't recommended by the JSON spec and the general behavior is that the last key is taken and the earlier keys are ignored. This really doesn't have anything to do with this implementation or JSON Schema but with JSON itself.
If you for example type the following in your browser's javascript console
example = { data: 'data', data: 1}
you will get the following result
{data: 1}
@justin-tay I apologize for my lack of understanding regarding the JSON Schema and JSON specifications. If I have any further questions about usage patterns, aside from the case of duplicate property names, I will be sure to ask again.
I am currently working on identifying any applicable cases.
Thank you very much for your polite and detailed response.
@justin-tay I wrote a test pattern to validate the following objects as example. The object must have both age and user, and the user object must have either id or name.
{
"age": 23,
"user": {
"id": 123,
}
}
{
"age": 23,
"user": {
"name": "john",
}
}
The JSON schema is as follows.
{
"allOf": [
{
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"user": {
"required": true,
"oneOf": [
{
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"id": {
"type": "number",
"required": true
}
}
},
{
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"name": {
"type": "string",
"required": true
}
}
}
]
}
}
},
{
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"age": {
"type": "number",
"required": true
}
}
}
]
}
The following is the test code. Some lines starting with //Assertions
(commented out lines) cause the test fails, although this website tells the tests pass as exptected.

Is the test code above seems reasonable? I'm not so familier with neither Java nor JSON Schema, but I hope the example helps our understanding or potential issues if any.
The JSON Schema doesn't describe what you are expecting. The required
keyword should be an array of property keys required and is not a boolean value.
{
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"age": {
"type": "number"
},
"user": {
"type": "object",
"oneOf": [
{

"type": "string"

},

@justin-tay I think the cause was our lack of understanding of Json and Json-schema. Thanks to your excellent support, our team was able to properly understand the documentation. Thank you very much. We are using it as a validator for the OpenAPI Spec, and since Json-schema is a good specification, we want to use it. However, if the underlying Json-schema specification is unclear, it will be troublesome for both the development side and the user side. Anyway, your help was truly appreciated. Thank you very much.
@justin-tay I checked some additional test cases with combinations of allOf and oneOf, and what we had to do to pass the test was to fix the JSON schemas to the correct format in all cases. Some GUI editors for the OpenAPI spec provide a user interface for us to define schemas using allOf / oneOf / anyOf. Since the UI simply shows the combined schemas, I misunderstood what those combined schemas mean and how the validator works. Thank you very much for your quick and detailed explanation.
