Specification Extensions allows extensions to the OpenRPC Schema and is always prefixed by "x-". The extensions may or may not be supported by the available tooling, but those may be extended as well to add requested support (if tools are internal or open-sourced).
- Define an extension in JSON - Human and machine readable.
- Consistent with OpenRPC - familiar OpenRPC terms.
- Extend OpenRPC - so developers can add features and tooling around OpenRPC that isn't currently in the spec, or falls outside of the specification context.
- Prototype New OpenRPC changes - new additions to the OpenRPC specification can be created and prototyped as a Specification Extension and have working tooling before being merged into the OpenRPC specification.
You can view the JSON-Schema meta-schema here: ./meta-schema.json.
NOTE: Tooling support is still WIP for Specification Extensions.
