Star Wars Supermodel

Demo models for http://supermodel.io

Overview

Supermodel demo models using the Star Wars API "theme", the models can be found in the in the supermodel/starwars folder or directly viewed at https://supermodel.io/starwars.

Supermodel Models

Supermodel data models follows these conventions:

1. Models are written as JSON Schema in YAML format, one schema definition per one YAML file
2. Every model must start with JSON Schema $id
3. A model should specify the used version of JSON Schema in the $schema field

A model can freely reference any other model or model property using the JSON Schema $ref reference mechanism. The reference can point to any JSON Schema on the web, or it can be relative to the current model.

Model Example

$id: http://supermodel.io/starwars/core/Person
$schema: http://json-schema.org/draft-07/schema#

title: Person
type: object
description: >-
  An individual person or character within the Star Wars universe.

properties:
  name: 
    type: string
    examples:
      - Luke Skywalker
      - Darth Vader
  
  homeworld:
    $ref: http://supermodel.io/starwars/core/Planet

See more examples in the supermodel/starwars/core folder.

CLI

The Supermodel CLI tool can be used to create, validate schemas or convert the models into various formats such as OpenAPI Spec, GraphQL schema, Avro schema, and others.

See the package.json scripts section for examples how to use the Supermodel CLI.

Refer to the Supermodel CLI tool documentation for further details.

Always Available Models

When published to http://supermodel.io, a model becomes globally available under its $id (e.g., http://supermodel.io/starwars/core/Starship). The model can be referred to by any other JSON Schema or consumed via http://supermodel.io API.

Visit http://supermodel.io/starwars/core/Starship for further details on how to reference the model.
