validate(schema, force=False, json_cache=True)

schema: jsonschema to validate against

force: try to validate request if Content-Type is not applciation/json

json_cache: cache json with flask.request.get_json

Example

from flask_jsonschema import validate

@app.route("/", methods=['POST'])
@validate({
	        'type': 'object',
	        'properties': {

	            'bar': {'type': 'number'},
	        },
	        'required': ['bar', 'foo'],
	    })
def index_post():
