We’re pleased to announce the release of jsonschema4springboot version 0.0.6, published on November 29, 2025. This maintenance release focuses on keeping your dependencies current and secure, with updates across the board while maintaining full backward compatibility.

What’s New

Version 0.0.6 is a dependency-focused release that bundles numerous updates to keep your Spring Boot integration healthy and up-to-date. While there are no new features in this release, the upgrades provide important benefits:

  • json-schema-validator upgraded from 1.5.7 to 1.5.9, bringing upstream improvements and fixes to the core validation engine
  • spring-web updated from 6.2.7 to 6.2.12, ensuring you benefit from the latest Spring Framework patches
  • Build tooling modernized with updates to Maven plugins and GitHub Actions workflows

Additionally, we fixed a documentation issue in our README where the example dependency version incorrectly showed 0.0.3 instead of the current version—copying examples directly from the docs will now work correctly.

Why It Matters

This release exemplifies our commitment to maintaining a secure, up-to-date library. By proactively updating dependencies, we ensure that users benefit from:

  • Security patches from upstream projects
  • Bug fixes that may affect validation behavior in edge cases
  • Compatibility guarantees with the broader Spring ecosystem

The upgrade is completely non-disruptive. There are no breaking changes, no API modifications, and no migration steps required. If you’re currently using jsonschema4springboot, upgrading to 0.0.6 is safe and straightforward.
