Validator throws error on valid swagger spec

[rahulmishra]

I have begun experimenting with swagger and swagger-tools has been an obvious choice but i am a bit confused about some valid JSON schema elements not being honored by the swagger validator.

To take the weather example , I wanted to add a 'pattern' to the 'location' parameter stating it must follow a specific pattern, so i added pattern to the location parameter

"parameters": [
{
"name": "location",
"in": "query",
"description": "The MSN Weather location search string.",
"required": true,
"type": "string",
"pattern":"validPattern"
}
]

Swagger spec says this should be possible, but the swagger tools validator says

/paths//weather/get/parameters/0/pattern: Additional properties not allowed: pattern

Can someone please explain whats going on here because i have seen this happen for other properties as well.

Can you tell me what version of swagger-tools you're using? I just pushed a release yesterday or the day before that updated the schema.

If you're using the latest, the only thing I can think of is your pattern is wrong. JSON Schema does validate that the pattern value is a ECMA 262 regular expression pattern. It would be nice to see the pattern.

I am using 0.5.9

I am pretty sure its not the one which you released yesterday.So, let me look again

I just tried the latest release, 0.6.5, and this works fine. I took the example in the repository, added the pattern property to one of the parameters and it worked fine. Can you verify that this is no longer an issue when you upgrade your version of swagger-tools?

If there is no response by end of day, I'm closing this issue as I cannot reproduce it.
