Any plans to support 2019 and 2020 ?

Was wondering if you had any plans to support the 2020 schema ?

Yes, absolutely. The main hurdle could be the changed behavior around references. Some things have been simplified/clarified, so it might not be that bad, but I haven't had a chance to look at it in depth yet. I will try to find some time this week and come up with an initial effort estimation.

Ok, some update about the progress. When looking into the new features in the 2019/2020 drafts I realized that there is no point in working on those before properly adding support for a class of references (location-independent identifiers and embedded schemas) that I had dismissed as an edge case in the initial draft 4 implementation. After updating to the latest master of the official test suite, I found that there are a lot of helpful new tests around those features, and also there's valuable documentation that explains the expected behavior.

I'm now at a point where references are actually working 100% in drafts 4, 6 and 7. From there on it should be much easier to support the later drafts since they are not fundamentally changing that behavior (as far as I can see).

So the TLDR would be: I'm working on it and making some progress, though it could still take a bit longer. I will give updates once I have more information.

Hello, could you like update this feature status when possible? I occur a use case need to process the embedded schema from $ref, maybe I can help something base on your thoughts.

Thanks for this open project.

Hey, I'm afraid I haven't made much progress since February, no time to work on it. There's a branch with my work so far if you want to have a look, but it might not be in a state where it's easy to pick up. I hope to have more time after easter as soon as I get a bigger project at work out of the way.

Got it, thanks.

Hey! Are you planning to support 2020 anytime soon?
