Azure Policy Editor Schema

Microsoft, for some reason, does not appear to provide a schema except for the Policy rule definition, which makes doing Azure Policy-as-Code difficult to work with if you don't have proper intellisense and validation in your editor.

The JSON schemas in this repository take the Azure Policy Definition Structure and codify them into JSON Schemas.

VSCode Extension

The VSCode extension basically just adds automatic schema validation for files that follow the Azure Policy as Code model. To specify your own file format, copy the jsonValidation key from the package.json and paste it into either your user or workspace settings, and modify the fileMatch appropriately. [More info about schema mapping is here](https://github.com/JustinGrote/AzurePolicySchema/blob/HEAD/ https:/code.visualstudio.com/docs/languages/json#_mapping-in-the-json )

Simple VSCode Extension Demo

1. Start VSCode and clone the Azure/Community-Policy Github repository or go to https://github.dev/Azure/Community-Policy
2. Search for azure-policy-intellisense in the extensions window and install it.
3. Open an azurepolicy.json file and you should be able to get intellisense for properties and values.
