next-swagger-doc only able to reference schema.json files if it is kept in /public folder?

[Yash-Raj-Telus]

swagger is only able to reference the schema.json file when it is kept inside the /public folder and when I move this file to the project's root folder, I get a reference error Could not resolve reference: Could not resolve pointer: /definitions/PackagingConfigDetails does not exist in document. I tried providing the exact path in $ref in js-doc specification but still got the same error.
This is my API route handler code.

* paths:
 *   /v2/api/packaging-config:
 *     post:
 *        description: Insert API to create packaging configuration records
 *        tags:
 *            - Packaging Config
 *        requestBody:
 *          required: true
 *          content:
 *           application/json:
 *             schema:
 *               $ref: 'schemas/schema.json#/definitions/PackagingConfigDetails'
 *        responses:
 *          201:
 *            description: Record inserted successfully
 *          401:
 *            description: Unauthorized
 *          403:
 *            description: Forbidden
 *          500:
 *            description: Internal Server Error
 */

And swagger-specification code:

const SwaggerUI = dynamic(import('swagger-ui-react'), { ssr: false })

function ApiDoc ({ spec }: InferGetStaticPropsType<typeof getStaticProps>) {
  return <SwaggerUI spec={spec} />
}

export const getStaticProps: GetStaticProps = async () => {

  const spec: Record<string, any> = createSwaggerSpec({
    apiFolder: '/src/pages/api',
    schemaFolders: ['../../../schemas/schema.json'],
    definition: {
      openapi: '3.0.0',
      info: {
        title: 'Next Swagger API Documentation',
        description: 'Next Swagger API Documentation',
        version: '1.0'
      },
      components: {
        securitySchemes: {
          bearerAuth: {
            type: 'http',
            scheme: 'bearer',
            bearerFormat: 'JWT'
          }
        }
      },
      security: [
        { bearerAuth: [] }
      ]
    }
  })

  return {
    props: {
      spec
    }
  }
}

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Could you check the example here? https://github.com/jellydn/next-swagger-doc/blob/main/examples/next13-simple/README.md

    schemaFolders: ['../../../schemas/schema.json'],

This seems wrong to me. It should be a folder, not a file.

[Yash-Raj-Telus]

Yes it is inside a schema folder i.e. /schema/schema.json and I have also tried the above-mentioned scenario, I'm still getting the same error.

[Yash-Raj-Telus]

I have tried referencing it like $ref: '../../../../schema/schema.json#/definitions/PackagingConfigDetails' and $ref: 'schema/schema.json#/definitions/PackagingConfigDetails'.
Am I doing something wrong here?

My schema.json looks like this:

{
  "definitions": {
    "PackagingConfigDetails": {
      "type": "object",
      "properties": {
        "packagingConfigId": {
          "type": "string"
        }
      },
      "additionalProperties": false
    }
  }
}
