How do you convert json schema to json type def

[reubano]

I don't see how to convert from json schema anywhere in these repos or the website. I'd love to be able to use your Python code generation tools with json schema as an input. And since json schema is more widely supported, I'd like to keep the source of truth as json schema.

I'm in no way related to this project, but you're asking for something that's tricky to code and a nightmare to maintain.

JSON Schema is a lot more expressive than Typedef and tends to bring a kind of ambiguity with it (your data structures can be represented in multiple ways in the schema). It can describe a broader range of things than Typedef can. There's a reason codegen tools that accept JSON Schema tend to only allow a subset of it. JSON Schema was optimized for validation and expressing just about anything, not codegen.

I think trying to write a generic tool which accepts any JSON Schema on input is asking for trouble. But if you only use a well-defined subset of JSON Schema, maybe you could write a thing that translates that to Typedef for your own specific needs.

Also consider the opposite approach - keep Typedef as your source of truth, and generate JSON Schema out of Typedef. I imagine that would be much more sane.
