JSON Schema support for Django REST Framework

Overview

drf-jsonschema-serializer is a library built around Django REST Framework. It does the following:

  • Convert a DRF serializer into a JSON Schema.

  • Provides JSONSchemaField that can validate JSON data according to a JSON schema.

  • Provides a SerializerJSONField that can validate JSON data according to a serializer for a field.

This lets you use client-side form libraries such as react-jsonschema-form to generate a web form from a serializer. This way you can use the same schema for client-side form generation and validation as you use for REST service input validation.
