parsers/resolvers get partial file URL for json-pointer refs about json-schema-ref-parser

[eliranmal]

by the way, #47 seems interestingly aligned with my real use case. its resolution may render this issue redundant.

Hi @eliranmal. Sorry for taking so long to respond.

This behavior is by design. When a JSON Reference ($ref) contains a hash character (#), the part before the hash indicates the resource that's being referenced, and the part after the hash is a JSON Pointer that indicates a specific part of that resource. The "file info" object that's passed to the hook functions represents the entire file, not just a part of it, which is why the url property doesn't contain the hash portion. The job of functions like read() and parse() is to read/parse the entire resource. After that, it's up to json-schema-ref-parser to crawl the parsed resource and find the specific part that the $ref points to.

@BigstickCarpet - i get it, i thought it would be easier for my use-case if the hash was passed as well.

i'll follow #47 and see if it matches my needs.

thanx :)
