Override

A source of schemas that outranks another in schema resolution, such as a config overrides entry for the files matching its glob.

In manni meta, “override” has two related senses:

  • A config overrides entry assigns a schema set to files matching a glob, so different folders can use different schemas. See Apply different schemas to different folders.
  • More broadly, schema resolution is a chain of overrides. A --schema flag overrides a document’s $schema. That overrides config overrides, which override config schemas. The first source that yields a schema wins. Config schemas join the built-in default set rather than override it, and so does an override that sets defaults: true. See Precedence.
