# Injecto
A behaviour module that defines both an Ecto schema and a JSON schema.
An Injecto schema uses the module attribute `@properties` to define an Ecto schema and
a JSON schema based on the `ex_json_schema` library. In doing so, it also injects a
`Jason` encoder implementation. The advantage of using an Injecto schema is to get a
consistent parsing and validating with Ecto changesets and JSON schema respectively
with minimal boilerplates. This consistency is helpful when working with struct-based
request or response bodies, because we can get accurate Swagger schemas for free.
Example:
```elixir
defmodule Post do
@properties %{
title: {:string, required: true},
description: {:string, []},
likes: {:integer, required: true, minimum: 0}
}
use Injecto
end
```
