Generate-TerriaJS-Schema

This utility scans the TerriaJS source code in order to build a JSON Schema that validates catalog "init" files. This has two purposes:

1. Automatically generating an editor for catalog files (included in NationalMap at .../editor)
2. Validating catalog files.

Tags

It uses JSdoc-style tags embedded as comments in the source code.

These class-level tags are supported:

• @editortitle (uses class name, munged, if not present)
• @editordescription (uses JSdoc description, if not present)

These property-level tags are supported:

• @type
• @editortype (in same format as @type, uses @type if not present)
• @editordescription
• @editorformat (customising the choice of editor, eg tabs, table, checkbox)
• @editoritemstype (type of each thing in the array. Generally better to use @type {Number[]} where possible.
• @editoritemstitle (name of each thing in the array, like Filter)
• @editoritemsdescription (description of each thing in the array)
