Hammerkit yaml schema picked up instead of Github actions

[andig]

Describe the bug

I have yaml.schemaStore.enable active and work with github actions (yaml files in .github/workflows. Editing build.yaml I see error indicators.

Expected Behavior

No errors as yaml validated based on https://json.schemastore.org/github-action.json

Current Behavior

Errors relating to https://json.schemastore.org/hammerkit.json

Steps to Reproduce

Not really sure. This may be a problem with any of the schema definitions rather than this plugin, but I couldn't figure it out.

Environment

• Windows
• Mac
• Linux
• other (please specify)

Same issue. This wasn't happening a few months ago.

[HarikrishnanBalagopal]

Going to https://schemastore.org/ I get a certifacte error saying:

Does that have anything to do with this?

NOTE: the exact url has the correct certificate https://json.schemastore.org/github-action.json

[HarikrishnanBalagopal]

@andig Also the correct schema for Github workflows is this https://json.schemastore.org/github-workflow.json

For now we can workaround this issue by putting this comment at the top of the yaml file

# yaml-language-server: $schema=https://json.schemastore.org/github-workflow.json

This issue happens on Linux too. On my side, the plugins says it’s using both github-actions.json and hammerkit.json.

My solution was to put, in settings.json:

    "yaml.schemas": {
        "https://json.schemastore.org/github-workflow.json": ".github/workflows/*"
    }

I‘m still confused as to why it would be doing this?

JSON Schema Store’s API returns a list of schema with their fileMatch (source), that vscode-yaml uses to determine which schema to apply to which file.

If we look into it:

    {
      "name": "Hammerkit YAML Schema",
      "description": "JSON Schema for hammerkit files.",
      "fileMatch": [
        "build.yaml",
        "build.yml"
      ],
      "url": "https://json.schemastore.org/hammerkit.json"
    }

and

    {
      "name": "GitHub Workflow",
      "description": "YAML schema for GitHub Workflow",
      "fileMatch": [
        ".github/workflows/**.yml",
        ".github/workflows/**.yaml"
      ],
      "url": "https://json.schemastore.org/github-workflow.json"
    },

There’s no clear way to determine which one should be used, even though it’s obvious for us human.

This extension could:

• Add a special case in their code for GitHub actions, or find some kind of heuristic (e.g. a fileMatch with a / has priority over a fileMatch that does not, or see if applying one schema leads to more error than the other)
• Allow the user to chose which one to use with CodeLens, since it’s already able to display the two schema used using this, instead of using two schemas at the same time, it’s just never what we want.

@ariasuni You are right.

Allow the user to chose which one to use with CodeLens, since it’s already able to display the two schema used using this, instead of using two schemas at the same time, it’s just never what we want.

That how I plan to fix this.
