AI interpretation — verify before relying

AI-generated interpretation of the package facts above; every digit, version, license, or vulnerability id it cites is grounded in the facts already shown on this page

Provides object-oriented traversal and dereferencing of JSON Schema documents, allowing you to navigate schema structures like file paths and resolve `$ref` references on demand.

Low friction: pure-Python wheel with four stable runtime dependencies (PyYAML, attrs, pathable, referencing). Actively maintained with recent releases; last commit 2026-07-27.

Apache-2.0 permissive license allows commercial and private use with minimal restrictions; you must retain license notices in distributions.

Usage

from jsonschema_path import SchemaPath

d = {"properties": {"name": {"type": "string"}}}
path = SchemaPath.from_dict(d)
name_path = path / "properties" / "name"
with name_path.open() as contents:
    print(contents)

Requires Python 3.10 or later (supports 3.10–3.14).

Verdict: A lightweight, actively maintained library for navigating JSON Schema documents with object-oriented paths and implicit reference resolution. No known vulnerabilities, permissive license, and low install friction make it suitable for OpenAPI/Swagger tooling and schema validation pipelines.

Needs verification

Performance characteristics and typical cache hit rates under real-world schema sizes.
Compatibility with external `$ref` handlers beyond the standard referencing registry.
