JSON schema vs Cerberus schema

[cburchert]

Currently we use cerberus schemas for event's additional_fields. There was a discussion, whether we should switch to JSON schemas, as those are more widely known outside the python community.

Thoughts?

As there is a jsonschema validation for python, but no cerberus schema validation for js, that would make client-side validation easier

[NotSpecial]

Aren't there some javascript libraries around to create jsonschema? And to create forms form jsonschema?

In my opinion something like this would be the main argument, because if something like this exists we would make life for the frontend team much easier.

(Will investigate)

[NotSpecial]

There is!

I will assign myself, because I have used this in the past (for group methods, which is now handles differently though) and so I think I have an idea how to implement it easily.
