* feat(gemini): add opt-in support for responseJsonSchema
Add support for Gemini's native responseJsonSchema parameter which uses
standard JSON Schema format instead of OpenAPI-style responseSchema.
Benefits of responseJsonSchema (Gemini 2.0+ only):
- Standard JSON Schema format (lowercase types)
- Supports additionalProperties for stricter validation
- Better compatibility with Pydantic's model_json_schema()
- No propertyOrdering required
Usage:
```python
response_format={
"type": "json_schema",
"json_schema": {"schema": {...}},
"use_json_schema": True # opt-in
}
```
This is backwards compatible - existing code continues to use
responseSchema by default.
Closes#16340
* docs: add documentation for use_json_schema parameter
Document the new use_json_schema option for Gemini 2.0+ models
in the JSON Mode documentation.
* refactor(gemini): use responseJsonSchema by default for Gemini 2.0+
Remove opt-in flag `use_json_schema` and automatically detect model version:
- Gemini 2.0+: uses responseJsonSchema (standard JSON Schema, supports additionalProperties)
- Gemini 1.5: uses responseSchema (OpenAPI format, legacy)
This follows LiteLLM's philosophy of abstracting provider differences -
users write the same code regardless of model version.
* test(vertex): update json_schema tests to accept both responseSchema formats
Gemini 2.x+ uses responseJsonSchema while Gemini 1.x uses responseSchema.
Update tests to accept both formats since litellm now auto-selects based
on model version.
