## Usage

### CLI

**Basic Usage**

```bash
$ stac-validator --help
```

```bash
Usage: stac-validator [OPTIONS] STAC_FILE

Options:
  --core                          Validate core stac object only without
                                  extensions.
  --extensions                    Validate extensions only.
  --links                         Additionally validate links. Only works with
                                  default mode.
  --assets                        Additionally validate assets. Only works
                                  with default mode.
  -c, --custom TEXT               Validate against a custom schema (local
                                  filepath or remote schema).
  -s, --schema-map <TEXT TEXT>...
                                  Schema path to replaced by (local) schema
                                  path during validation. Can be used multiple

]
```

### --item-collection

```bash
$ stac-validator https://earth-search.aws.element84.com/v0/collections/sentinel-s2-l2a/items --item-collection --pages 2
```

### --header

```bash
$ stac-validator https://stac-catalog.eu/collections/sentinel-s2-l2a/items --header x-api-key $MY_API_KEY --header foo bar
```

### --schema-map

Schema map allows stac-validator to replace a schema in a STAC json by a schema from another URL or local schema file.
This is especially useful when developing a schema and testing validation against your local copy of the schema.

```bash
$ stac-validator https://raw.githubusercontent.com/radiantearth/stac-spec/v1.0.0/examples/extended-item.json --extensions --schema-map https://stac-extensions.github.io/projection/v1.0.0/schema.json "tests/test_data/schema/v1.0.0/projection.json"
```

```bash
[
    {
        "version": "1.0.0",
        "path": "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/radiantearth/stac-spec/v1.0.0/examples/extended-item.json",
        "schema": [
            "https://stac-extensions.github.io/eo/v1.0.0/schema.json",
            "tests/test_data/schema/v1.0.0/projection.json",
            "https://stac-extensions.github.io/scientific/v1.0.0/schema.json",
            "https://stac-extensions.github.io/view/v1.0.0/schema.json",
            "https://stac-extensions.github.io/remote-data/v1.0.0/schema.json"
        ],
        "valid_stac": true,
        "asset_type": "ITEM",
        "validation_method": "extensions"
    }
]
```

This option is also capable of replacing URLs to subschemas:

```bash
$ stac-validator tests/test_data/v100/extended-item-local.json --custom tests/test_data/schema/v1.0.0/item_with_unreachable_url.json --schema-map https://geojson-wrong-url.org/schema/Feature.json https://geojson.org/schema/Feature.json --schema-map https://geojson-wrong-url.org/schema/Geometry.json https://geojson.org/schema/Geometry.json
```

```bash
[
    {
        "version": "1.0.0",
        "path": "tests/test_data/v100/extended-item-local.json",
        "schema": [
            "tests/test_data/schema/v1.0.0/item_with_unreachable_url.json"
        ],
        "valid_stac": true,
        "asset_type": "ITEM",
        "validation_method": "custom"
    }
]
```

### --schema-config

The `--schema-config` option allows you to specify a YAML or JSON configuration file that maps remote schema URLs to local file paths. This is useful when you need to validate against multiple local schemas and want to avoid using multiple `--schema-map` arguments.

Example schema config file (YAML):
```yaml
schemas:
  "https://schemas.stacspec.org/v1.0.0/collection-spec/json-schema/collection.json": "local_schemas/v1.0.0/collection.json"
  "https://schemas.stacspec.org/v1.0.0/item-spec/json-schema/item.json": "local_schemas/v1.0.0/item.json"
  "https://stac-extensions.github.io/eo/v1.0.0/schema.json": "local_schemas/v1.0.0/eo.json"
```

Usage:
```bash
$ stac-validator https://raw.githubusercontent.com/radiantearth/stac-spec/v1.0.0/examples/extended-item.json --schema-config path/to/schema_config.yaml
```

The paths in the config file can be absolute or relative to the config file's location.

### --pydantic

The `--pydantic` option provides enhanced validation using stac-pydantic models, which offer stronger type checking and more detailed error messages. To use this feature, you need to install the optional dependency:

```bash
$ pip install stac-validator[pydantic]
```

Then you can validate your STAC objects using Pydantic models:

```bash
$ stac-validator https://raw.githubusercontent.com/radiantearth/stac-spec/master/examples/extended-item.json --pydantic
```

```bash
[
    {
        "version": "1.0.0",
        "path": "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/radiantearth/stac-spec/master/examples/extended-item.json",
        "schema": [
            "stac-pydantic Item model"
        ],
        "valid_stac": true,
        "asset_type": "ITEM",
        "validation_method": "pydantic",
        "extension_schemas": [
            "https://stac-extensions.github.io/eo/v1.0.0/schema.json",
            "https://stac-extensions.github.io/projection/v1.0.0/schema.json",
            "https://stac-extensions.github.io/scientific/v1.0.0/schema.json",
            "https://stac-extensions.github.io/view/v1.0.0/schema.json",
            "https://stac-extensions.github.io/remote-data/v1.0.0/schema.json"
        ],
        "model_validation": "passed"
    }
]
```

\"validation_method\": \"recursive\",\n        \"valid_stac\": true\n    }\n]\n```\n\n### --item-collection\n\n```bash\n$ stac-validator https://earth-search.aws.element84.com/v0/collections/sentinel-s2-l2a/items --item-collection --pages 2\n```\n\n### --header\n\n```bash\n$ stac-validator https://stac-catalog.eu/collections/sentinel-s2-l2a/items --header x-api-key $MY_API_KEY --header foo bar\n```\n\n### --schema-map\n\nSchema map allows stac-validator to replace a schema in a STAC json by a schema from another URL or local schema file.\nThis is especially useful when developing a schema and testing validation against your local copy of the schema.\n\n```bash\n$ stac-validator https://raw.githubusercontent.com/radiantearth/stac-spec/v1.0.0/examples/extended-item.json --extensions --schema-map https://stac-extensions.github.io/projection/v1.0.0/schema.json \"tests/test_data/schema/v1.0.0/projection.json\"\n```\n\n```bash\n[\n    {\n        \"version\": \"1.0.0\",\n        \"path\": \"https://raw.githubusercontent.com/radiantearth/stac-spec/v1.0.0/examples/extended-item.json\",\n        \"schema\": [\n            \"https://stac-extensions.github.io/eo/v1.0.0/schema.json\",\n            \"tests/test_data/schema/v1.0.0/projection.json\",\n            \"https://stac-extensions.github.io/scientific/v1.0.0/schema.json\",\n            \"https://stac-extensions.github.io/view/v1.0.0/schema.json\",\n            \"https://stac-extensions.github.io/remote-data/v1.0.0/schema.json\"\n        ],\n        \"valid_stac\": true,\n        \"asset_type\": \"ITEM\",\n        \"validation_method\": \"extensions\"\n    }\n]\n```\n\nThis option is also capable of replacing URLs to subschemas:\n\n```bash\n$ stac-validator tests/test_data/v100/extended-item-local.json --custom tests/test_data/schema/v1.0.0/item_with_unreachable_url.json --schema-map https://geojson-wrong-url.org/schema/Feature.json https://geojson.org/schema/Feature.json --schema-map https://geojson-wrong-url.org/schema/Geometry.json https://geojson.org/schema/Geometry.json\n```\n\n```bash\n[\n    {\n        \"version\": \"1.0.0\",\n        \"path\": \"tests/test_data/v100/extended-item-local.json\",\n        \"schema\": [\n            \"tests/test_data/schema/v1.0.0/item_with_unreachable_url.json\"\n        ],\n        \"valid_stac\": true,\n        \"asset_type\": \"ITEM\",\n        \"validation_method\": \"custom\"\n    }\n]\n```\n\n### --schema-config\n\nThe `--schema-config` option allows you to specify a YAML or JSON configuration file that maps remote schema URLs to local file paths. This is useful when you need to validate against multiple local schemas and want to avoid using multiple `--schema-map` arguments.\n\nExample schema config file (YAML):\n```yaml\nschemas:\n  \"https://schemas.stacspec.org/v1.0.0/collection-spec/json-schema/collection.json\": \"local_schemas/v1.0.0/collection.json\"\n  \"https://schemas.stacspec.org/v1.0.0/item-spec/json-schema/item.json\": \"local_schemas/v1.0.0/item.json\"\n  \"https://stac-extensions.github.io/eo/v1.0.0/schema.json\": \"local_schemas/v1.0.0/eo.json\"\n```\n\nUsage:\n```bash\n$ stac-validator https://raw.githubusercontent.com/radiantearth/stac-spec/v1.0.0/examples/extended-item.json --schema-config path/to/schema_config.yaml\n```\n\nThe paths in the config file can be absolute or relative to the config file's location.\n\n### --pydantic\n\nThe `--pydantic` option provides enhanced validation using stac-pydantic models, which offer stronger type checking and more detailed error messages. To use this feature, you need to install the optional dependency:\n\n```bash\n$ pip install stac-validator[pydantic]\n```\n\nThen you can validate your STAC objects using Pydantic models:\n\n```bash\n$ stac-validator https://raw.githubusercontent.com/radiantearth/stac-spec/master/examples/extended-item.json --pydantic\n```\n\n```bash\n[\n    {\n        \"version\": \"1.0.0\",\n        \"path\": \"https://raw.githubusercontent.com/radiantearth/stac-spec/master/examples/extended-item.json\",\n        \"schema\": [\n            \"stac-pydantic Item model\"\n        ],\n        \"valid_stac\": true,\n        \"asset_type\": \"ITEM\",\n        \"validation_method\": \"pydantic\",\n        \"extension_schemas\": [\n            \"https://stac-extensions.github.io/eo/v1.0.0/schema.json\",\n            \"https://stac-extensions.github.io/projection/v1.0.0/schema.json\",\n            \"https://stac-extensions.github.io/scientific/v1.0.0/schema.json\",\n            \"https://stac-extensions.github.io/view/v1.0.0/schema.json\",\n            \"https://stac-extensions.github.io/remote-data/v1.0.0/schema.json\"\n        ],\n        \"model_validation\": \"passed\"\n    }\n]\n```\n\n## Sponsors and Supporters\n\nThe following organizations have contributed time and/or funding to support the development of this project:\n- [Healy Hyperspatial](https://healy-hyperspatial.github.io/)\n- [Radiant Earth Foundation](https://radiant.earth/)\n- [Sparkgeo](https://sparkgeo.com/)\n\n<p align=\"left\">\n  <a href=\"https://healy-hyperspatial.github.io/\"><img src=\"https://raw.githubusercontent.com/stac-utils/stac-fastapi-elasticsearch-opensearch/refs/heads/main/assets/hh-logo-blue.png\" alt=\"Healy Hyperspatial\" height=\"100\" hspace=\"20\"></a>\n  <a href=\"https://radiant.earth/\"><img src=\"assets/radiant-earth.webp\" alt=\"Radiant Earth Foundation\" height=\"100\" hspace=\"20\"></a>\n  <a href=\"https://sparkgeo.com/\"><img src=\"assets/sparkgeo_logo.jpeg\" alt=\"Sparkgeo\" height=\"100\" hspace=\"20\"></a>\n</p>\n\n\n## Contributing\n\nContributions are welcome!
