There is a update to generateDS.py -- 2.14a. This version contains several fixes as well as an important new feature. What's new is the generateDS.py now generates code that validates the data defined by xs:simpleType. It does this by looking at the restrictions in a simpleType and generating code that checks data to determine whether it satisfies those restrictions. The generated code then prints out warnings (using the warning module in the Python standard library), when restrictions are not satisfied. It even handles restrictions from a simpleType that is defined with a base simpleType that has restrictions. I believe that I have the logic is in all such cases correct.
This new version handles all my tests. And, I also threw a number of schemas (large and small) at it to make sure that it would generate code without throwing an exception and to ensure that the resulting code could be imported without errors by Python. However, there is quite a bit of new code. I certainly recommend that you try it to take advantage of the fixes and new features. *But*, hang on to your old version just in case. In order to implement features like this, I've used the xpath capability in lxml. So, now, installation of lxml is a requirement for running generateDS.py, although I'm pretty sure that it would not work without lxml previously either. You can find it in the usual places: - Python Package Index -- http://pypi.python.org/pypi/generateDS/ - Source Forge -- http://sourceforge.net/projects/generateds/ - Bitbucket -- For those of you who prefer using Mercurial, there is also a Mercurial repository at Bitbucket: https://bitbucket.org/dkuhlman/generateds Please let me know when you have comments or problems. Below is a description of what's new from the README. Dave # ========================================================= Version 2.14a (11/26/2014) - Fixed export of simpleType lists (added "' '.join(data)". Thanks to Per Rosengren for catching this. - Added new style validation of simpleType data. Validation requirements are captured from the XML schema definition of the simpleType, e.g. 'restriction base="..."' etc. Thanks to azer gh for implementing much of this extended capability. - Added unit test for simpleType validation, including test for proper detection of bad (invalid) data. - Did some code cleanup with the help of the flake8 code checker. - Added a fix so that attribute declarations that use ref= rather than type= will also be generated with the specific type. Thanks to Florian Wilmshoever for catching and reporting this and for providing an XML schema as a test case. - Added unit test for reference to simpleType. - Fix to generation of names of substitutionGroup. The namespace prefix was not being stripped in some cases. # ========================================================= -- Dave Kuhlman http://www.davekuhlman.org ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download BIRT iHub F-Type - The Free Enterprise-Grade BIRT Server from Actuate!
