lightbus dumpconfigschema

This command will output a JSON schema for the global bus configuration file.

The global bus configuration file is typically written as YAML, but it can also be written as JSON. In which case, you can validate the structure against the JSON schema produced by this command.

This schema can also be loaded into some editors to provide auto-completion when editing your bus' configuration file.

Important

Be careful not to confuse this command with dumpschema. The dumpschema command dumps your bus' schema, whereas this dumpconfigschema simply dumps the schema for your bus' configuration.

Examples

Dump the configuration file schema to standard out:

lightbus dumpschema

Dump the configuration file schema to a file:

lightbus dumpschema --out my_schema.json
Schema for 3 APIs saved to my_schema.json
