Validating XML using multiple XSD's in Ruby
I'm generating a lot of XMPP stanzas, and want to validate them against the specs available here in my unit tests.
At the moment I am using Nokogiri to achieve this with something like
xml = Nokogiri::XML( xmpp_stanza)
schema = Nokogiri::XML::Schema( xmpp_schema )
assert schema.valid?( xml )
Now this works fine except it gets reported as invalid becau开发者_高级运维se each schema only covers one namespace, and my XMPP stanzas have multiple namespaces. For example:
Invalid XML: Element '{http://jabber.org/protocol/pubsub}pubsub': No matching global element declaration available, but demanded by the strict wildcard.
How am I meant to handle multiple schemas to validate a single stanza? Am I meant to first split it apart by namespace and validate each one in isolation?
I was able to achieve this by importing one schema into the other.
e.g.
<xs:import namespace="http://base.google.com/ns/1.0" schemaLocation="public/xsd/google_base.xsd"/>
If you don't have the other namespaces available, you may also be able to alter the schema to include a processContents="lax" directive on relevant "any" nodes in the schema, saying it's okay NOT to validate namespaces you don't have a schema for. I did like so:
schema_xml = Nokogiri::XML(File.read(path))
schema_xml.xpath("//xs:any[@namespace='##other']",
{"xs" => "http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"}).each do |node|
node["processContents"] = "lax"
end
schema = Nokogiri::XML::Schema.from_document( schema_xml )
Of course, this means that the external namespaces won't be validated.
