bessarabov has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

I need to validate json files with json-schama in perl script. But unfortunately perl module JSON::Schema does not support the current version of json schema.

Is there any way of validation json with json-schema draft 4 in perl?

I have created a sample repo that shows the problem: https://github.com/bessarabov/playing_with_json_schema/

UPDATE — I've found a Perl library that impements json-schema draft 4 — JSV

    Cool, an opportunity to fix/improve something

    Yes, SMOP :D

    Ah yes, code on github, that uses "doker" that depends on npm ... the perfect and most simple and self contained way to demonstrate a problem ... directest way possible to ask perlmonks for help
