XML and Content Management XML and Content Management Lecture 4: More on XML Schema and patterns in schema design Maciej Ogrodniczuk MIMUW, 22 October 2012 Lecture 4: More on XML Schema and patterns in schema design XML and Content Management 1 XML Schema: last week summary XML Schema is a formalism for defining document schemata. It has (at least what we know so far): XML syntax, types: assigned to elements and attributes, set of predefined types, means for defining own types, more flexible definition of content models: occurrences, order in mixed content, constraints on uniqueness and references, ... Lecture 4: More on XML Schema and patterns in schema design XML and Content Management 2 Schema-document binding The binding is composed of 3 elements: declaration of the namespace for XML Schema-compatible document instance: xmlns:xsi= "http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance", binding the schema for elements not in any namespace — by specifying the schema URL in xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation attribute, binding the list of namespaces with URLs of schemata used for validation of elements which names are belong to namespaces used in the document — in xsi:schemaLocation attribute. Lecture 4: More on XML Schema and patterns in schema design XML and Content Management 3 Schema-document binding <?xml version="1.0"?> <text xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/ XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="text.xsd" xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.example.org/equations equations.xsd http://www.example.org/graphs graphs.xsd"> ... </text> Lecture 4: More on XML Schema and patterns in schema design XML and Content Management 4 Validation model Multilevel validation: 1 check (recursively) whether schema documents are valid (according to a schema for XML Schema), 2 check whether the document satisfies the requirements specified in the schema. Lecture 4: More on XML Schema and patterns in schema design XML and Content Management 5 Target namespace in a schema document If names of elements, attributes and types defined in the schema document should belong to a certain namespace, it must be specified in targetNamespace attribute of <xsd:schema> (root) element. Without this attribute names of resulting components will not belong to any namespace. Lecture 4: More on XML Schema and patterns in schema design XML and Content Management 6 targetNamespace="http://www.example.org/test" xmlns="http://www.example.org/test" Target namespace in a schema document OK: <xsd:schema xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" > <xsd:complexType name="baseType"> ... </xsd:complexType> <xsd:complexType name="derivedType"> <xsd:complexContent> <xsd:restriction base="baseType"> ... </xsd:restriction> </xsd:complexContent> </xsd:complexType> <xsd:element name="element" type="derivedType"> </xsd:schema> Lecture 4: More on XML Schema and patterns in schema design XML and Content Management 6 targetNamespace="http://www.example.org/test" xmlns="http://www.example.org/test" Target namespace in a schema document Not enough! <xsd:schema xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" targetNamespace="http://www.example.org/test" > <xsd:complexType name="baseType"> ... </xsd:complexType> <xsd:complexType name="derivedType"> <xsd:complexContent> <xsd:restriction base="baseType"> ... </xsd:restriction> </xsd:complexContent> </xsd:complexType> <xsd:element name="element" type="derivedType"> </xsd:schema> Lecture 4: More on XML Schema and patterns in schema design XML and Content Management 6 Target namespace in a schema document OK: <xsd:schema xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" targetNamespace="http://www.example.org/test" xmlns="http://www.example.org/test"> <xsd:complexType name="baseType"> ... </xsd:complexType> <xsd:complexType name="derivedType"> <xsd:complexContent> <xsd:restriction base="baseType"> ... </xsd:restriction> </xsd:complexContent> </xsd:complexType> <xsd:element name="element" type="derivedType"> </xsd:schema> Lecture 4: More on XML Schema and patterns in schema design XML and Content Management 6 Target namespace in a schema document OK: <xsd:schema xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" targetNamespace="http://www.example.org/test" xmlns:types="http://www.example.org/test"> <xsd:complexType name="baseType"> ... </xsd:complexType> <xsd:complexType name="derivedType"> <xsd:complexContent> <xsd:restriction base="types:baseType"> ... </xsd:restriction> </xsd:complexContent> </xsd:complexType> <xsd:element name="element" type="types:derivedType"> </xsd:schema> Lecture 4: More on XML Schema and patterns in schema design XML and Content Management 6 Document schemata and schema documents Schema (a logical structure) can be represented in many schema documents (.xsd files). XML Schema specification defined 3 methods of schema composition: include, import, redefine, Locations of documents describing the schema are defined in the instance and: the processing tool may use schema documents from predefined locations, schema document locations may be specified from the command line. Lecture 4: More on XML Schema and patterns in schema design XML and Content Management 7 Schema decomposition using <xsd:include> include links the schema document with the target namespace of the main schema document. Included document must have identical target namespace as the main document or have no target namespace. <xsd:schema xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns="http://www.example.org/pcs" targetNamespace="http://www.example.org/pcs"> <xsd:include schemaLocation="products.xsd"/> ... </xsd:schema> Note: included schemata do not have to be complete: bad – we need to take care of dependencies between schemata, good – we need to parameterize schemata (e.g. by defining different types for elements with different names). Lecture 4: More on XML Schema and patterns in schema design XML and Content Management 8 <xsd:import>: real life example <xsd:import namespace="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" schemaLocation="http://www.w3.org/2002/08/ xhtml/xhtml1-strict.xsd"/> <xsd:complexType name="XHTMLCodeType"> <xsd:sequence> <xsd:any namespace="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" processContents="skip"/> </xsd:sequence> </xsd:complexType> <xsd:element name="xhtml" type="XHTMLCodeType"> <doc xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="test2.xsd" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <html:body> ... </html:body> </doc> Lecture 4: More on XML Schema and patterns in schema design XML and Content Management 10 More on types Types — different classifications: Simple and complex types, atomic and multivalue types (lists and unions), ur-types, primitive types and derived types: ur-types — anyType and anySimpleType, primitive types — string, decimal, ... derived types — normalizedString, integer, ... built-in types and user-derived types, named and anonymous types. Lecture 4: More on XML Schema and patterns in schema design XML and Content Management 11 Complex type with a simple content Problem: Define an element with text content and an attribute. Solution: <xsd:element name="amount-in-words"> <xsd:complexType> <xsd:simpleContent> <xsd:extension base="xsd:string"> <xsd:attribute name="value" type="xsd:positiveInteger"/> </xsd:extension> </xsd:simpleContent> </xsd:complexType> </xsd:element> Lecture 4: More on XML Schema and patterns in schema design XML and Content Management 12 Derivation by extension In two ways: by extending simple content – adding attributes to a simple type or a complex type with simple content, by extending complex content – adding new elements or attributes to the base type. Two notes: values of the base type do not have to be proper values of the derived type (extension can e.g. add required elements or attributes), when we extend complex content, the content model of the base type does not have to be repeated — the processor will add a new model after the content model of the base type, as if both of them were in a sequence. Lecture 4: More on XML Schema and patterns in schema design XML and Content Management 13 Extending complex types <xsd:complexType name="publicationType"> <xsd:sequence> <xsd:element name="title" maxOccurs="unbounded"/> <xsd:element name="author" maxOccurs="unbounded"/> <xsd:element name="pubYear" type="xsd:year"/> </xsd:sequence> </xsd:complexType> <xsd:complexType name="bookType"> <xsd:complexContent> <xsd:extension base="publicationType"> <xsd:sequence> <xsd:element name="ISBN"/> </xsd:sequence> </xsd:extension> </xsd:complexContent> </xsd:complexType> Lecture 4: More on XML Schema and patterns in schema design XML and Content Management 14 Derivation by restriction Derivation can be achieved: for simple content — using facets, for complex content — by: constraining occurrence (minOccurs, maxOccurs), removing optional elements in sequence and all groups, selecting a subset of elements in choice groups, restricting subelement types. Restricting attributes means: restriction of attribute type, constraining attribute occurrence (from optional to required or prohibited), adding, modifying or removing a default value, adding a fixed value. Lecture 4: More on XML Schema and patterns in schema design XML and Content Management 15 Restriction of simple content and attributes: an example <xsd:complexType name="timePeriodType"> <xsd:simpleContent> <xsd:extension base="xsd:positiveInteger"> <xsd:attribute name="unit"/> <xsd:attribute name="miliseconds" type="xsd:positiveInteger"/> </xsd:extension> </xsd:simpleContent> </xsd:complexType> Lecture 4: More on XML Schema and patterns in schema design XML and Content Management 16 Restriction

  • The Extensible XML Information Set
    The Extensible XML Information Set Erik Wilde Computer Engineering and Networks Laboratory Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, Z¨urich TIK Report 160 (February 2003) Abstract XML and its data model, the XML Information Set, are used for a large number of applications. These applications have widely varying data models, ranging from very sim- ple regular trees to irregularly structured graphs using many different types of nodes and vertices. While some applications are sufficiently supported by the data model provided by the XML Infoset itself, others could benefit from extensions of the data model and assistance for these extensions in supporting XML technologies (such as the DOM API or the XSLT programming language). In this paper, we describe the Extensible XML Information Set (EXIS), which is a reformulation of the XML Infoset targeted at making the Infoset easier to extend and to make these extensions usable in higher-level XML technologies. EXIS provides a framework for defining extensions to the core XML Infoset, and for identifying these extensions (using namespace names). Higher-level XML tech- nologies (such as DOM or XPath) can then support EXIS extensions through additional interfaces, such as a dedicated DOM module, or XPath extension mechanisms (extension axes and/or functions). In order to make EXIS work, additional efforts are required in these areas of higher-level XML technologies, but EXIS itself could be used rather quickly to provide a foundation for well-defined Infoset extensions, such as XML Schema’s PSVI contributions, or the reformulation of XLink as being based on a data model (rather than a syntax).

  • Data-Centric XML
    © 2006 Martin v. Löwis Other SchemaLanguages Data-centric XML Problems of XML Schema • According to Schematron docs: – No support for entities – idiomatic or localized data types (date, time) not supported – limited support for element content models • e.g. start with one fixed element, then allow arbitrary order – limited support for idiomatic attribute usage • e.g. using attributes to contain or select element content – no notion of “document type” • in particular, no way of specifying root element – complexity – implementability • “persistent problems with buggy implementations, outside the conservative use of features” . Löwis © 2006 Martin v Datenorientiertes XML 2 Problems with XML Schema Everybody who actually touches the technology has known the truth for years, and it’s time to stop sweeping it under the rug. W3C XML Schemas (XSD) suck. They are hard to read, hard to write, hard to understand, have interoperability problems, and are unable to describe lots of things you want to do all the time in XML. ... It’s a pity; when XSD came out people thought that since it came from the W3C, same as XML, it must be the way to go, and it got baked into a bunch of other technology before anyone really had a chance to think it over. So now lots of people say “Well, yeah, it sucks, but we’re stuck with it.” Wrong! The time has come to declare it a worthy but failed experiment, tear down the shaky towers with XSD in their foundation, and start using RELAX for all significant XML work.

  • XML Schemas RELAX NG (Regular Language
    VALIDATION • An outline of various validation tools • XML DTD (Document Type Definition) • XML Schemas • RELAX NG (REgular LAnguage for XML Next Generation) • Schematron • "Absolute" comparison • NeuroML specifications according to the XML Schemas proposed • A RELAX NG alternative • A Schematron contribution • Other helpful validation tools An outline of different validation tools XML probably is one of the main data-exchange formats of Internet. Because of its variety and complexity, data must often be validated before being exploited. A large number of validation tools exist, each with its own grammar and peculiar features. Since there are different aspects which may be in need of a check (such as data structure, format constraints, datatyping, etc.), each validation tool may be more appropriated for a specific task (or it could simply make it easier). In this document only a part of the validation appliance ensemble will be studied as a possible alternative to XML Schemas for NeuroML specifications. XML DTD (Document Type Definition) It is the standard XML schema language of the "past". If compared to other validation tools, it shows limited capabilities. DTD possesses a non-XML syntax and a Document Type Definition Sheet typically consist of a set of declaration blocks that describe a class or a type (datatyping is very limited). XML Schemas XML Schema is much more expressive than DTD and it's well recognized by a wide variety of applications. This object-oriented schema language is capable of defining structure, content and semantics of XML documents and possesses many useful features, like inheritance (for elements and attributes) or user-datatype definition.
