✨ NAME ✨

jv — JSONSchema validation, but make it Go 💅 like, it validates your JSON against a schema and it's written in Go, that's the whole vibe bestie

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

jv [OPTIONS] SCHEMA [INSTANCE...]

So you give it a schema, and then optionally a bunch of instances to check against it. Iconic.

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

  • -h, --help — prints the help info. The classic "wait what does this do again" button 🫶
  • -v, --version — prints the build information. Perfect for when someone asks what version you're on and you need receipts ✨
  • -q, --quiet — do not print errors. Just silence. The "don't perceive me" flag 🙈
  • -d, --draft version — the draft version it uses when '$schema' is missing. Valid values are 4, 6, 7, 2019, 2020, and the default is 2020. It's giving "I already know my draft, thanks" 💜
  • -o, --output format — the output format. Valid values are simple, alt, flag, basic, detailed, and the default is "simple". Pick your aesthetic 🔥
  • -f, --assert-format — enables format assertions with draft >= 2019. Only kicks in for the newer drafts, so if you're on an old draft, this is just sitting there looking pretty 💅
  • -c, --assert-content — enables content assertions with draft >= 7. Same energy, different draft threshold 🦋
  • -k, --insecure — use an insecure TLS connection. Yes bestie it's literally called insecure, the name is not a drill, tread carefully 😭
  • --cacert pem-file — use the specified pem-file to verify the peer. The file may contain multiple CA certificates, so it's a little overachiever 💖
  • -m, --map url_prefix=/path/to/dir — load a url with the given prefix from the given directory. The syntax is url_prefix=/path/to/dir, so like, no improvising on the format okay ⭐
🌈 Friendly reminder: -k / --insecure means your TLS verification is off. That's the whole point of it, but it's also the whole risk of it. Don't be the main character in a security incident, bestie.

And that's the page fr fr 💖 this one came from jv 6.0.2-4, dated July 2026, and it lives its life as a JV(1) user command 👑 slay, go validate something 🌸
