Generate from JSON Schema

The code generator can create pydantic models from JSON Schema. See more information about supported JSON Schema data types and features here.

Example

$ datamodel-codegen  --input person.json --input-file-type jsonschema --output model.py

person.json

{
  "$schema": "http://json-schema.org/draft-07/schema#",
  "title": "Person",
  "type": "object",
  "properties": {
    "firstName": {
      "type": "string",
      "description": "The person's first name."
    },
    "lastName": {
      "type": "string",
      "description": "The person's last name."
    },
    "age": {
      "description": "Age in years which must be equal to or greater than zero.",
      "type": "integer",
      "minimum": 0
    },
    "friends": {
      "type": "array"
    },
    "comment": {
      "type": "null"
    }
  }
}
