jsonschema: error: argument -i/--instance: invalid _json_file value

[Benjamin-Lee]

This seems related to #299, but by reading the thread, I still don't have a clear idea of what I need to do in order to fix this problem.

(env) Benjamins-MacBook-Pro-9:flow-chem BenjaminLee$ jsonschema -i schemas/apparatus_example.json schemas/apparatus.schema.json
usage: jsonschema [-h] [-i INSTANCES] [-F ERROR_FORMAT] [-V VALIDATOR] schema
jsonschema: error: argument -i/--instance: invalid _json_file value: 'schemas/apparatus_example.json'
(env) Benjamins-MacBook-Pro-9:flow-chem BenjaminLee$ chardetect schemas/apparatus_example.json
schemas/apparatus_example.json: ascii with confidence 1.0
(env) Benjamins-MacBook-Pro-9:flow-chem BenjaminLee$ chardetect schemas/apparatus.schema.json
schemas/apparatus.schema.json: ascii with confidence 1.0
(env) Benjamins-MacBook-Pro-9:flow-chem BenjaminLee$ python3 -c "import locale; print(locale.getpreferredencoding())"
UTF-8

Doesn't necessarily need to be encoding related, check that the file is valid JSON

Fixed it! The error was an extra comma.

Is it possible to get a more descriptive error?

Last I checked it's a click limitation. Definitely happy to take a patch though if you figure out a way to get it to not eat tracebacks.
