alchemyjsonschema is the library for converting sqlalchemys's model to jsonschema.
- using alchemyjsonschema as command
- using alchemyjsonschema as library
having three output styles.
- NoForeignKeyWalker -- ignore relationships
- ForeignKeyWalker -- expecting the information about relationship is foreign key
- StructuralWalker -- fullset output(expecting the information about relationship is full JSON data)
dumping json with above three output styles.
target models are here. Group and User.

help
$ alchemyjsonschema --help
usage: alchemyjsonschema [-h] [--walker {noforeignkey,foreignkey,structural}]
[--decision {default,fullset}] [--depth DEPTH]
[--out OUT]
target
positional arguments:
target the module or class to extract schemas from
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
--walker {noforeignkey,foreignkey,structural}
--decision {default,fullset}
--depth DEPTH
--out OUT output to file
If above two model definitions (User,Group) are existed in alchemyjsonschema.tests.models .
Target is the class position or module position. for example,
- class position -- alchemyjsonschema.tests.models:User
- module position -- alchemyjsonschema.tests.models
Using StructuralWalker via command line (--walker structural). Of course, NoForeignKeyWalker is noforeignkey, and ForeignKeyWalker is foreignkey.
$ alchemyjsonschema --walker structural alchemyjsonschema.tests.models:Group

Output is not same when using Walker-class, directly. This is handy output for something like a swagger(OpenAPI 2.0)'s tool.
what is --decision? (TODO: gentle description)
