Consider Shipping Newer JSONSchema Version

[DavidArchibald]

As the README says:

YAML Language support uses JSON Schemas to understand the shape of a YAML file, including its value sets, defaults and descriptions. The schema support is shipped with JSON Schema Draft 7.

I would love to use features from a newer draft (specifically I'm looking at unevaluatedProperties though a lot of it is good). So shipping with the ability to use 2020-12 would be great! I tried looking around to see if there's any way to configure it to ship with a newer version or a reason why it would be, say, backwards incompatible and thus not implemented.

I tried searching the issues with the keyword jsonschema etc. so I hope this isn't a duplicate issue or answered somewhere obvious!

This extension inherits JSON schema support from vscode-json-language-service. I think it is best to follow up on this issue or similar ones for this support.

Thank you for the swift reply! My apologies I was unsure if it was an upstream issue or not so thank you for the clarification.

The unevaluatedProperties seems to work in JSON schema but not in yaml schema...
Any idea of the problem ?

[DetachHead]

that issue has been fixed but this extension still does not seem to support unevaluatedProperties

@gorkem The upstream issue is resolved a while ago. But it still doesn't work for this plugin. Are there any plans to resolve this?

@gorkem When will this be resolved?

[gorkem]

Unfortunately, I am not actively working on it.

Support in vscode-yaml for JSON Schema draft 2020-12 would make a huge difference for us. We use JSON Schema to build out frontend forms and backend validation and use also YAML as an input format edited in VSCode.

Amongst the draft 2020-12 features we would like YAML validation support for is dependentRequired.
https://json-schema.org/understanding-json-schema/reference/conditionals#dependentRequired
It's really handy for generating GUI forms and our VSCode YAML users should have the same benefits.

Latest draft support may also address the annoying 'problem' message: The schema uses meta-schema features ($dynamicRef) that are not yet supported by the validator when specifying "$schema": "https://json-schema.org/draft/2020-12/schema".
That upstream schema does indeed contain $dynamicRef and rightly so.

To confirm, the VSCode native JSON support does provide inline validation of 2020-12 keywords.

Our teams love this extension and as far as I know no other extension provides these excellent features.
It's a shame to see it slip behind.

Hi,
Same here trying to use "prefixItems" and not working as expected cause it's a 2019/2020 draft feature and we still lock in past time with draft07 :(
