FasterXML schema generation for Maps and Object references - jackson

Question

I have an issue generating a JSON Schema file with FasterXML.
The file output just shows
object type for a Map<String, String>
null type for OtherBean
{
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"beanId": {
"type": "integer"
},
"beanName": {
"type": "string"
},
"beanMap": {
"type": "object"
},
"otherBean": null
} }
My Schema generation class
import java.io.File;
import java.io.IOException;
import com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.ObjectMapper;
import com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.jsonschema.JsonSchema;
public class Main {
public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
ObjectMapper MAPPER = new ObjectMapper();
JsonSchema jsonSchema = MAPPER.generateJsonSchema(MyBean.class);
MAPPER.writeValue(new File("MyBeanSchema.json"), jsonSchema);
}
}
MyBeans:
import java.util.Map;
public class MyBean {
private Integer beanId;
private String beanName;
private Map<String, String> beanMap;
private OtherBean otherBean;
public MyBean() {
}
public Integer getBeanId() {
return beanId;
}
public void setBeanId(Integer beanId) {
this.beanId = beanId;
}
public String getBeanName() {
return beanName;
}
public void setBeanName(String beanName) {
this.beanName = beanName;
}
public Map<String, String> getBeanMap() {
return beanMap;
}
public void setBeanMap(Map<String, String> beanMap) {
this.beanMap = beanMap;
}
public OtherBean getOtherBean() {
return otherBean;
}
public void setOtherBean(OtherBean otherBean) {
this.otherBean = otherBean;
}
}
OtherBean:
public class OtherBean {
}

Not directly answering your question, but Schema Generation is moving to a separate module:
https://github.com/FasterXML/jackson-module-jsonSchema/
which will have better functionality, and can evolve faster than old in-built generation.
So if possible, try using that. And then you can file bugs against this, for problems with generation.
