https is not a valid scheme to reference for URI about json-schema-validator

[fge]

Yes, I left it out voluntarily.

The problem with HTTPS is certificate handling, I can give no guarantee that this or that certificate is recognized by the JRE at all. I hesitated a lot, and decided to leave it out. I was afraid to have bug requests opened because of certificate problems, not lack of support, to say it all.

Adding it is relatively easy, though. You can register a URIDownloader as such:

       final JsonSchemaFactory factory = JsonSchemaFactory.builder()
            .registerScheme("https", new URIDownloader()
            {
                @Override
                public InputStream fetch(final URI source)
                    throws IOException
                {
                    return source.toURL().openStream(); 
                }
            })
            .build();

(example 7 from the code examples explain how to do that)

But you are right, though, the more it goes, the more HTTPS is used, so I guess I should as well support it as a default.

If you want, I can do a 1.5.5 with only this change. And pray that no certificate problem will popup in the issues!

Wow thanks for the super speedy reply. Yea I would totally be grateful for a https support. I understand the "handshake" issues, but hopefully people who are rolling their own certificates will understand that issue. (Hopefully is a big word ;-) )

OK, 1.5.5 has been released on Maven with this change (via SonaType). I don't know how long this will take until this is available, time to availability sometimes varies very wildly...

Would you mind notifying me when you could get hold of it?

[fge]

1.6.0 is out, in fact it is 1.5.5 with the deprecated annotations removed.

Had a chance to fetch either yet?

[toverly]

Yes. I did download. Worked great. Thanks.

[toverly]

1.6.0

[fge]

Good! I wondered how fast it could be available.

By the way, you may want to have a look at that:

Shameless plugin, of course, but who knows!

[fge]

May I close this issue?

[toverly]

Yes!

Thank you!

I hope you will find some use of processors too. Have fun!
