GBFS: Adapt the gbfs-validator functions-python to use gbfs-validator-java

[jcpitre]

We need to adapt the gbfs-validator-pubsub function functions-python/gbfs_validator to the new gbfs-validator-java.

Currently the gbfs-validator-pubsub function makes calls to the original gbfs-validator deployed on netlify.
The URL used for the call is here
Here is an example of a validation report as return form the aPI call:
Bixi validation report

With MobilityData/gbfs-validator-java-infra#3 we will have the new gbfs-validator-java API deployed. The API is slightly different (See openapi.yaml). As an example, this call:

curl -X 'POST' \
  'http://localhost:8080/validate' \
  -H 'accept: application/json' \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{"feedUrl": "https://cluster-prod.veoride.com/api/shares/name/wta/gbfs"}

(You need to have started the API locally). Here is the return:

{
  "summary": {
    "validatorVersion": "2.0.68",
    "files": [
      {
        "name": "gbfs",
        "url": "https://cluster-prod.veoride.com/api/shares/name/wta/gbfs",
        "version": "2.2",
        "language": null,
        "errors": [],
        "schema": "The json schema for the GBFS auto-discovery file"
        "systemErrors": []
      },
      {
        "name": "system_information",
        "url": "https://cluster-prod.veoride.com/api/shares/name/wta/gbfs/system_information",
        "version": "2.2",
        "language": "en",
        "errors": [],
        "schema": "The json schema for the GBFS system_information file",
        "systemErrors": []
      },
      ...

    ]
  }
}

Currently we keep the validation reports in GCP. 2 choices:

1. Change the report schema to be the same as the return of the validate API call of gbfs-validator-java.

• Anybody else using the reports ? They would expect the schema not to change Not really
• We would need to revisit all GBFS feeds and redo the validation (probably simple)

2. Keep the validator report the same. Change the return of the validate API call of gbfs-validator-java. No

• Change the return of the validate API call of gbfs-validator-java OR
• translate the return of validate to the c urrent report schema.
