This +is the schema used for Nimbus experiments that target messaging features. All +incoming messaging experiments will be validated against this schema. + +Schema Changes +-------------- + +To add a new message type to the Messaging Experiments schema: + +1. Add your message template schema. + + Your message template schema only needs to define the following fields at a + minimum: + + * ``template``: a string field that defines an identifier for your message. + This must be either a ``const`` or ``enum`` field. + + For example, the ``template`` field of Spotlight looks like: + + .. code-block:: json + + { "type": "string", "const": "spotlight" } + + * ``content``: an object field that defines your per-message unique content. + + If your message requires ``targeting``, you must add a targeting field. + + If your message supports triggering, there is a definition you can reference + the ``MessageTrigger`` `shared definition <Shared Definitions_>`_. + + The ``groups``, ``frequency``, and ``priority`` fields will automatically be + inherited by your message. + +2. Ensure the schema has an ``$id`` member. This allows for references (e.g., + ``{ "$ref": "#!/$defs/Foo" }``) to work in the bundled schema. See docs on + `bundling JSON schemas <jsonschema_bundling_>`_ for more information. + +3. Add the new schema to the list in `make-schemas.py <make_schemas_script_>`_. +4. Build the new schema by running: + + .. code-block:: shell + + cd browser/components/asrouter/content-src/schemas/ + ../../../../../mach python make-schemas.py + +5. Commit the results. + +Likewise, if you are modifying a message schema you must rebuild the generated +schema: + +.. code-block:: shell + + cd browser/components/asrouter/content-src/schemas/ + ../../../../../mach python make-schemas.py + +If you do not, the `Firefox MS Schemas CI job <make_schemas_check_>`_ will fail. + +.. _run_make_schemas: + +You can run this locally via: + +.. code-block:: shell + + cd browser/components/asrouter/content-src/schemas/ + ../../../../../mach xpcshell extract-test-corpus.js + ../../../../../mach python make-schemas.py --check + +This test will re-generate the schema and compare it to +``MessagingExperiment.schema.json``. If there is a difference, it will fail. +The test will also validate the list of in-tree messages with the same schema +validator that Experimenter uses to ensure that our schemas are compatible with +Experimenter. + +Shared Definitions +------------------ + +Some definitions are shared across multiple schemas. Instead of copying and +pasting the definitions between them and then having to manually keep them up to +date, we keep them in a common schema that contains these defintitions: +`FxMsCommon.schema.json <common_schema_>`_. Any definition that will be re-used +across multiple schemas should be added to the common schema, which will have +its definitions bundled into the generated schema. All references to the common +schema will be rewritten in the generated schema. + +The definitions listed in this file are: + +* ``Message``, which defines the common fields present in each FxMS message; +* ``MessageTrigger``, which defines a method that may trigger the message to be + presented to the user; +* ``localizableText``, for when either a string or a string ID (for translation + purposes) can be used; and +* ``localizedText``, for when a string ID is required. + +An example of using the ``localizableText`` definition in a message schema follows: + +.. code-block:: json + + { + "type": "object", + "properties": { + "message": { + "$ref": "file:///FxMSCommon.schema.json#/$defs/localizableText" + "description": "The message as a string or string ID" + }, + } + } + + +Schema Tests +------------ + +We have in-tree tests (`Test_CFRMessageProvider`_, +`Test_OnboardingMessageProvider`_, and `Test_PanelTestProvider`_), which +validate existing messages with the generated schema. + +We also have compatibility tests for ensuring that our schemas work in +`Experimenter`_. `Experimenter`_ uses a different JSON schema validation +library, which is reused in the `Firefox MS Schemas CI job +<make_schemas_check_>`_. This test validates a test corpus from +`CFRMessageProvider`_, `OnboardingMessageProvider`_, and `PanelTestProvider`_ +with the same JSON schema validation library and configuration as Experimenter. + +See how to run these tests :ref:`above <run_make_schemas_>`. + + +Triggers and actions +--------------------- + +.. toctree:: + :maxdepth: 2 + + SpecialMessageActionSchemas/index + TriggerActionSchemas/index + +.. _cfr_urlbar_chiclet_schema: https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/browser/components/asrouter/content-src/templates/CFR/templates/CFRUrlbarChiclet.schema.json +.. _extension_doorhanger_schema: https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/browser/components/asrouter/content-src/templates/CFR/templates/ExtensionDoorhanger.schema.json +.. _infobar_schema: https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/browser/components/asrouter/content-src/templates/CFR/templates/InfoBar.schema.json +.. _spotlight_schema: https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/browser/components/asrouter/content-src/templates/OnboardingMessage/Spotlight.schema.json +.. _toast_notification_schema: https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/browser/components/asrouter/content-src/templates/ToastNotification/ToastNotification.schema.json +.. _toolbar_badge_schema: https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/browser/components/asrouter/content-src/templates/OnboardingMessage/ToolbarBadgeMessage.schema.json +.. _update_action_schema: https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/browser/components/asrouter/content-src/templates/OnboardingMessage/UpdateAction.schema.json +.. _whats_new_schema: https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/browser/components/asrouter/content-src/templates/OnboardingMessage/WhatsNewMessage.schema.json +.. _protections_panel_schema: https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/browser/components/asrouter/content-src/templates/OnboardingMessage/ProtectionsPanelMessage.schema.json +.. _pbnewtab_promo_schema: https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/browser/components/asrouter/content-src/templates/PBNewtab/NewtabPromoMessage.schema.json +.. _messaging_experiments_schema: https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/browser/components/asrouter/content-src/schemas/MessagingExperiment.schema.json +.. _common_schema: https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/browser/components/asrouter/content-src/schemas/FxMSCommon.schema.json + +.. _make_schemas_script: https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/browser/components/asrouter/content-src/schemas/make-schemas.py +.. _jsonschema_bundling: https://json-schema.org/understanding-json-schema/structuring.html#bundling +.. _make_schemas_check: https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/taskcluster/ci/source-test/python.yml#425-438 + +.. _Experimenter: https://experimenter.info + +.. _CFRMessageProvider: https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/browser/components/asrouter/modules/CFRMessageProvider.jsm +.. _PanelTestProvider: https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/browser/components/asrouter/modules/PanelTestProvider.jsm +.. _OnboardingMessageProvider: https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/browser/components/asrouter/modules/OnboardingMessageProvider.sys.mjs +.. _Test_CFRMessageProvider: https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/browser/components/asrouter/tests//xpcshell/test_CFMessageProvider.js +.. _Test_OnboardingMessageProvider: https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/browser/components/asrouter/tests//xpcshell/test_OnboardingMessageProvider.js +.. _Test_PanelTestProvider: https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/browser/components/asrouter/tests//xpcshell/test_PanelTestProvider.js |
