JSON schemas for Minecraft Bedrock Edition add-on developers

Usage

These steps are for Visual Studio Code

Local to project

1. Create .vscode folder at root of project
2. Create settings.json folder
3. Add the following:

{
    // Allows comments in JSON files
    "files.associations": {
        "*.json": "jsonc"
    },
    // Schema associations
    // Based on Vanilla reference folder structure
    "json.schemas": [
        {
            "fileMatch": [
                // Entity behavior files
                "/behaviors/entities/**/*.json"
            ],
            "url": "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/BlueFrogGames/minecraft-addon-schemas/1.17/entity.schema.json"
        },
        {
            "fileMatch": [
                // Entity resource files
                "/resources/entity/**/*.json"
            ],
            "url": "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/BlueFrogGames/minecraft-addon-schemas/1.17/client_entity.schema.json"
        },
        {
            // Spawn rules
            "fileMatch": [
                "/behaviors/spawn_rules/**/*.json"
            ],
            "url": "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/BlueFrogGames/minecraft-addon-schemas/1.17/spawn_rules.schema.json"
        },
        {
            // Items
            "fileMatch": [
                "/behaviors/items/**/*.json"
            ],
            "url": "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/BlueFrogGames/minecraft-addon-schemas/1.17/item.schema.json"
        }
    ]
}

The "fileMatch" option checks the schema against any files ending in ".behavior.json" or any file within the entities/ directory
