Introduction

django-jsonschema converts Django Forms into JSON Schema compatibile representations

Requirements

• Python 2.6 or later
• Django 1.4 or later

Usage

To convert a form to a JSON Schema:

from djangojsonschema.jsonschema import DjangoFormToJSONSchema

schema_repr = DjangoFormToJSONSchema().convert_form(MyForm)

To embed a JSON Schema as a form field:

from djangojsonschema.forms import JSONSchemaField

#where schema is a python dictionay like schema_repr in the first exmaple

class MyForm(forms.Form):
    subfield = JSONSchemaField(schema=schema)

form = MyForm(data={'subfield':'<json encoded value>'})
form.validate() #will validate the subfield entry against schema
form['subfield'].as_widget() #will render a textarea widget with a data-schemajson attribute
