Code Generation

OpenMetadata is built on schema-first principle. We define schema in json-schema definition under OpenMetadata/catalog-rest-service/src/main/resources/json/schema

We use jsonschema2pojo for code generation.

Run mvn generate-sources in the project root directory to generate Java code from the json schema definitions. The generated POJOs are placed under OpenMetadata/catalog-rest-service/target/generated-sources/jsonschema2pojo.
