I'm trying to create a swagger doc for below JSON, but I'm getting the below error: schemas with 'type: array', require a sibling 'items: ' field

JSON:

{
    "_id": "string",
    "name": "string",
    "descriptions": {},
    "date": "string",
    "customer": {
        "id": "string",
        "name": {
            "firstName": "string",
            "lastName": "string",
            "middleName": "string"
        }
    },
    "productDetials": {
        "id": "string",
        "name": {
            "name": "string",
            "model": "string",
            "price": "string",
            "comments": "string"
        }
    },
    "Phone": [{
            "id": "string",
            "category": "string",
            "version": "string",
            "condition": "string",
            "availability": "string"

        }
    ]   
}

Can someone help me to get the swagger doc for this JSON.

Any help would be really appreciated.

First of all you have to define models dependent on the JSON (objects).

In your case:

  • Order (I guess)
  • Customer
  • CustomerName
  • ProductDetails
  • ProductName
  • Phone

Then define the models in definitions section of the YAML (Swagger schema documentation):

Order:
  type: "object"
  properties:
    _id:
      type: "string"
    name:
      type: "string"
    descriptions:
      type: "object"
    date:
      type: "string"
    customer:
      $ref: "#/definitions/Customer"
    productDetails:
      $ref: "#/definitions/ProductDetails"
    phoneNumbers:
      type: "array"
      items:
        $ref: "#/definitions/Phone"
Customer:
  type: "object"
  properties:
    id:
      type: "string"
    name:
      $ref: "#/definitions/CustomerName"
CustomerName:       
  type: "object"
  properties:
    firstName:
      type: "string"
    lastName:
      type: "string"
    middleName:
      type: "string"
ProductDetails:
  type: "object"
  properties:
    id:
      type: "string"
    name:
      $ref: "#/definitions/ProductName"
ProductName:       
  type: "object"
  properties:
    name:
      type: "string"
    model:
      type: "string"
    price:
      type: "string"
    comments:
      type: "string"
Phone:
  type: "object"
  properties:
    id: 
      type: "string"
    category:
      type: "string"
    version:
      type: "string"
    condition:
      type: "string"
    availability:
      type: "string"

If you want to define an array with a specific model as item - take array as a type and define items (according to provided error code you forgot it). items is the content of the array - so the the Phone model in your case:

...
phoneNumbers:
  type: "array"
  items:
    $ref: "#/definitions/Phone"
