A geoJSON validator.

Usage

Validate a Hash or a JSON String object.

data = {
  type: 'Feature',
  geometry: {
    type: 'Point',
    coordinates: [-80.72, 35.26]
  },
  properties: {}
}

geojson = Geojsonlint.validate(data)
geojson.valid? # => true

data = {
  type: 'Feature',
  geometry: {
    type: 'Point',
    coordinates: 'invalid'
  },
  properties: {}
}

geojson = Geojsonlint.validate(data)
geojson.valid? # => false
geojson.errors # => [{ schema: {...}, fragment: "...", message: "...", failed_attribute: "...", errors: [...] }]

Also included is a custom validator for your ActiveModel objects.

  include ActiveModel::Model
