Dynamic keys? about fdoc

So fdoc actually uses on JSON schema (http://json-schema.org/latest/json-schema-core.html) for the actual schema description. To my knowledge there is no way in JSON schema to do what you're describing.

From my personal experience, using arrays for these kinds of things is straightforward and works in more places. It's pretty easy to build a dictionary/hash out of objects client-side once you have them loaded anyways.

{
  "authors": [
    { "id": 1 },
    { "id": 4 }
  ]
}

Since JSON schema doesn't do this, I'm not sure this is something fdoc is going to handle now.

Thanks for the quick response. I figured the change would have to be supported by json-schema, and in looking at their code I'm not sure how I'd even add it in. Sadly that I may have to give up on fdoc if I want this style of response (but I may just end up making it an array like you suggest).
