Validator does not validate relative references

[jeff9finger]

I have a swagger file like the following. It validates correctly when the referenced yaml file (abc.yaml) is not valid.

swagger: '2.0'
info:
  version: '2.0'
  title: ABC API

consumes:
  - application/json
produces:
  - application/json
paths:
  /abc:
    $ref: 'paths/abc.yaml'

Yeah, we recently encountered that issue. Thanks for opening a ticket.

Is there a time frame for this to be complete?

[denarced]

This is a problem for me as well.

You could use my tool openapi-preprocessor to build a single file spec for publication. That will help users of your spec who use tools that do not fully implement the Swagger/OpenAPI spec such as this validator.

Any progress on this? In my case, the validation is correct, although the referenced file does not exist (there is typo in the name).
