Publish schema json to public url

[svrooij]

I also have some json schema files for my pet project I publish them to github pages (with custom domain but that doesn't matter).
So my schema file is available from the internet and that means they automatically work in VSCode.

If you would clone sonos-api-docs and edit this file it does the json checking right in the editor. Because I've set the $schema in the json.

https://github.com/svrooij/sonos-api-docs/blob/d1a95207f37146f6b49cba3b5ce796f67dcd2fa8/docs/documentation.json#L1-L2

You can still use your action, which is great for checking, but this small step would allow all addon developers to use the schema files and have much less faults in their addon configuration.

So, the file is public?

I always though that githubusercontent didn't send the correct mimetype. Not sure if vscode takes json schemas that are send without application/json content type.

but even if it works, the main documentation of writing addons could state the following.

Add this schema to your addon build config json file, so you get auto checking the file in vscode while you develop the addon.

It doesn't provide those headers indeed.
🤷

While a nice addition maybe, I don't plan on using it myself that way. If someone wants to make that effort to keep it updated and published, sure 👍

I was only trying to help other developers with an even nicer developer experience ;)
