I have an XML file I want to generate an XSD schema from, using xmlbeans , specifically inst2xsd . I'd like to package the script so it can be run via Maven. I could not find any documentation how to run inst2xsd when installing xmlbeans using Maven. This is my pom.xml
so far:
<project>
<modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>
<groupId>de.wolkenarchitekt</groupId>
<artifactId>xml-to-xsd</artifactId>
<version>1</version>
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.xmlbeans</groupId>
<artifactId>xmlbeans</artifactId>
<version>3.1.0</version>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
</project>
Installing this via mvn install
works. Just for the reference - not important for the answer - I'm building it via Docker, so I'm using OpenJDK14:
FROM maven:3.6.3-openjdk-14-slim
RUN mkdir -p /opt/workspace
WORKDIR /opt/workspace
COPY pom.xml .
RUN mvn install
Now how do I run the executable for inst2xsd
after installing xmlbeans via Maven?
You can use the Exec Maven Plugin to invoke the class Inst2Xsd
. This class is the one actually called from the inst2xsd
shell script.
If you do not need xmlbeans
in your project - once your XSD is generated - you can event define this dependency only for that task.
Consider the following XML document:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<breakfast_menu>
<food>
<name>Belgian Waffles</name>
<price>$5.95</price>
<description>Two of our famous Belgian Waffles with plenty of real maple syrup</description>
<calories>650</calories>
</food>
<food>
<name>Strawberry Belgian Waffles</name>
<price>$7.95</price>
<description>Light Belgian waffles covered with strawberries and whipped cream</description>
<calories>900</calories>
</food>
<food>
<name>Berry-Berry Belgian Waffles</name>
<price>$8.95</price>
<description>Light Belgian waffles covered with an assortment of fresh berries and whipped cream</description>
<calories>900</calories>
</food>
<food>
<name>French Toast</name>
<price>$4.50</price>
<description>Thick slices made from our homemade sourdough bread</description>
<calories>600</calories>
</food>
<food>
<name>Homestyle Breakfast</name>
<price>$6.95</price>
<description>Two eggs, bacon or sausage, toast, and our ever-popular hash browns</description>
<calories>950</calories>
</food>
</breakfast_menu>
In the example we will name it food-menu.xml
and save it in src/main/resources
.
You can generate the XML schema as follows (the following example is derived from the code that you can find in the plugin documentation ):
<project>
<!-- ... -->
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
<artifactId>exec-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>3.0.0</version>
<executions>
<execution>
<goals>
<goal>java</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
<configuration>
<includeProjectDependencies>false</includeProjectDependencies>
<includePluginDependencies>true</includePluginDependencies>
<mainClass>org.apache.xmlbeans.impl.inst2xsd.Inst2Xsd</mainClass>
<arguments>
<!-- Add as many arguments as you need -->
<argument>-outDir</argument>
<argument>${project.build.outputDirectory}</argument>
<argument>-validate</argument>
<argument>${project.basedir}/src/main/resources/food-menu.xml</argument>
</arguments>
</configuration>
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.xmlbeans</groupId>
<artifactId>xmlbeans</artifactId>
<version>3.1.0</version>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
<!-- ... -->
</project>
Just run mvn exec:java
from your terminal or command line and the schema will be generated according to the arguments passed to Inst2Xsd
.
The use of docker should not be a problem.
