## Usage
```javascript
const assert = require('node:assert')
const { mergeSchemas } = require('@fastify/merge-json-schemas');
const schema1 = {
$id: 'schema1',
type: 'object',
properties: {
foo: { type: 'string', enum: ['foo1', 'foo2'] },
bar: { type: 'string', minLength: 3 }
}
}
const schema2 = {
$id: 'schema1',
type: 'object',
properties: {
foo: { type: 'string', enum: ['foo1', 'foo3'] },
bar: { type: 'string', minLength: 5 }
},
required: ['foo']
}
const mergedSchema = mergeSchemas([schema1, schema2])
assert.deepStrictEqual(mergedSchema, {
$id: 'schema1',
type: 'object',
properties: {
foo: { type: 'string', enum: ['foo1'] },
bar: { type: 'string', minLength: 5 }
},
required: ['foo']

#### mergeSchemas(schemas, options)
Builds a logical conjunction (AND) of multiple [JSON schemas](https://json-schema.org/draft/2020-12/json-schema-core#name-introduction).
- `schemas` __\<objects[]\>__ - list of JSON schemas to merge
- `options` __\<object\>__ - optional options
- `resolvers` __\<object\>__ - custom resolvers for JSON schema keywords. Each key is the name of a JSON schema keyword. Each value is a resolver function. See [keywordResolver](#keywordresolver-keyword-values-mergedschema-parentschemas-options)
- `defaultResolver` __\<function\>__ - custom default resolver for JSON schema keywords. See [keywordResolver](#keywordresolver-keyword-values-mergedschema-parentschemas-options)
- `onConflict` __\<string\>__ - action to take when a conflict is found. Used by the default `defaultResolver`. Default is `throw`. Possible values are:
- `throw` - throws an error multiple different schemas for the same keyword are found
- `ignore` - do nothing if multiple different schemas for the same keyword are found
- `first` - use the value of the first schema if multiple different schemas for the same keyword are found
#### resolvers
A list of default resolvers that __merge-json-schema__ uses to merge JSON schemas. You can override the default resolvers by passing a list of custom resolvers in the `options` argument of `mergeSchemas`. See [keywordResolver](#keywordresolver-keyword-values-mergedschema-parentschemas-options).
#### defaultResolver
A default resolver that __merge-json-schema__ uses to merge JSON schemas. Default resolver is used when no custom resolver is defined for a JSON schema keyword. By default, the default resolver works as follows:
- If only one schema contains the keyword, the value of the keyword is used as the merged value
- If multiple schemas contain the exact same value for the keyword, the value of the keyword is used as the merged value
- If multiple schemas contain different values for the keyword, it throws an error
#### keywordResolver (keyword, values, mergedSchema, parentSchemas, options)
__merge-json-schema__ uses a set of resolvers to merge JSON schemas. Each resolver is associated with a JSON schema keyword. The resolver is called when the keyword is found in the schemas to merge. The resolver is called with the following arguments:
- `keyword` __\<string\>__ - the name of the keyword to merge
- `values` __\<any[]\>__ - the values of the keyword to merge. The length of the array is equal to the number of schemas to merge. If a schema does not contain the keyword, the value is `undefined`
- `mergedSchema` __\<object\>__ - an instance of the merged schema
- `parentSchemas` __\<object[]\>__ - the list of parent schemas
- `options` __\<object\>__ - the options passed to `mergeSchemas`
The resolver must set the merged value of the `keyword` in the `mergedSchema` object.
__Example:__ resolver for the `minNumber` keyword.
```javascript
function minNumberResolver (keyword, values, mergedSchema) {
mergedSchema[keyword] = Math.min(...values)
}
```
