Corvus.Json.JsonSchema.TypeGeneratorTool

Corvus.Json.CodeGenerator (Legacy)

This package has been renamed. The CLI tool is now corvusjson, available in the Corvus.Json.Cli package. This package (Corvus.Json.CodeGenerator) provides the legacy generatejsonschematypes command as a shim that delegates to the same code generation engine.

New projects should install Corvus.Json.Cli instead:

dotnet tool install --global Corvus.Json.Cli

Legacy shim behaviour

When you run generatejsonschematypes, it delegates to the same underlying implementation as corvusjson. The key difference is the default engine:

To generate V5 types with the legacy command, pass --engine V5 explicitly.

Migration

Replace your tool installation:

# Old
dotnet tool install --global Corvus.Json.CodeGenerator

# New
dotnet tool install --global Corvus.Json.Cli

Update your commands — schema generation is now a subcommand:

# Old
generatejsonschematypes person.json --rootNamespace MyApp.Models --outputPath Generated/

# New
corvusjson jsonschema person.json --rootNamespace MyApp.Models --outputPath Generated/

Other subcommands (config, validateDocument, listNameHeuristics, jsonata, jmespath, jsonlogic) just need the tool name changed:

# Old
generatejsonschematypes config myconfig.json
generatejsonschematypes validateDocument schema.json data.json

# New
corvusjson config myconfig.json
corvusjson validateDocument schema.json data.json
