tv4 is a tiny JavaScript validator for JSON Schema draft v4, supporting $ref with JSON Pointer paths, multiple error collection, and asynchronous schema fetching. It is explicitly no longer actively maintained.

Use cases

  • validate json against a json schema draft v4
  • collect multiple validation errors from json data
  • validate json with $ref references to external schemas
  • validate json in the browser or node
  • check api request payloads against a schema

When to choose

  • you need a tiny, dependency-free JSON Schema v4 validator
  • you must validate legacy schemas locked to draft v4
  • you need multiple validation errors reported at once

When to avoid

  • you need JSON Schema draft 2019-09/2020-12 or newer features
  • you want an actively maintained validator with security updates
  • you need built-in asynchronous validation without jQuery
