View Source

GetValueSchema(object?)

Gets a JSON Schema (draft 2020-12) describing the incoming value structure.

Declaration

public JsonObject? GetValueSchema(object? configuration)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
object	configuration	The data type configuration, which may affect the schema.

Returns

Type	Description
JsonObject	A System.Text.Json.Nodes.JsonObject containing a valid JSON Schema, or `null` if the schema cannot be generated for the given configuration.

Remarks

The returned schema should describe the structure that IDataValueEditor.FromEditor receives (i.e., what the Management API accepts).

For configuration-dependent schemas (e.g., BlockList with specific element types), the schema should reflect the constraints defined in the configuration.

View Source

GetValueType(object?)

Gets the CLR type that represents the incoming value structure.

Declaration

public Type? GetValueType(object? configuration)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
object	configuration	The data type configuration, which may affect the value type.

Returns

Type	Description
Type	The CLR type of the incoming value, or `null` if the type cannot be determined or varies significantly based on configuration.

Remarks

For simple editors (e.g., textbox), this might return string. For complex editors (e.g., MediaPicker3), this returns the DTO type that the editor submits. For block-based editors where the structure is entirely configuration-dependent, this may return null.
