json-schema-deref

Synchronous and async JSON Schema $ref dereferencing library for Node.js. Version 0.5.0 resolves local, file, and web references in JSON Schema objects by replacing $ref pointers with their resolved values. Unlike alternatives like json-schema-ref-parser, it offers a simpler API and optional caching of remote refs. Includes TypeScript types. Primarily maintained for legacy Node.js (>=6.0.0) projects; newer work is on json-schema-deref-sync. Release cadence is low; no recent updates.
