Ref (Vert.x Stack - Docs 5.0.0.CR3 API)

java.lang.Object
- io.vertx.reactivex.json.schema.Ref

```
public class Ref
extends Object
```
JsonObject $ref resolver. This interface is used to resolve $ref in a . The result is a new with all the $ref replaced by actual object references. This new object allows navigation and queries using JsonPointer but will not be able to be encoded back to JSON when circular dependencies are present. The resolver will only resolve local references as defined in RFC3986. A local reference is a reference that starts with # and is followed by a valid JSON Pointer.
NOTE: This class has been automatically generated from the original non RX-ified interface using Vert.x codegen.

public static JsonObject resolve(JsonObject json)
```
    Resolve all $ref in the given . The resolution algorithm is not aware of other specifications. When resolving OpenAPI documents (which only allow $ref at specific locations) you should validate if the document is valid before performing a resolution. It is important to note that any sibling elements of a $ref is ignored. This is because $ref works by replacing itself and everything on its level with the definition it is pointing at.
    
    Parameters:
    
    json - the JSON object to resolve.
    
    Returns:
    
    a new JSON object with all the $ref replaced by actual object references.
