class Nokogiri::XML::Schema

Nokogiri::XML::Schema is used for validating XML against an XSD schema definition.

⚠ Since v1.11.0, Schema treats inputs as untrusted by default, and so external entities are not resolved from the network (http:// or ftp://). When parsing a trusted document, the caller may turn off the NONET option via the ParseOptions to (re-)enable external entity resolution over a network connection.

🛡 Before v1.11.0, documents were “trusted” by default during schema parsing which was counter to Nokogiri’s “untrusted by default” security policy.

Example: Determine whether an XML document is valid.

schema = Nokogiri::XML::Schema.new(File.read(XSD_FILE))
doc = Nokogiri::XML::Document.parse(File.read(XML_FILE))
schema.valid?(doc) # Boolean

Example: Validate an XML document against an XSD schema, and capture any errors that are found.

schema = Nokogiri::XML::Schema.new(File.read(XSD_FILE))
doc = Nokogiri::XML::Document.parse(File.read(XML_FILE))
errors = schema.validate(doc) # Array<SyntaxError>

Example: Validate an XML document using a Document containing an XSD schema definition.

schema_doc = Nokogiri::XML::Document.parse(File.read(RELAX_NG_FILE))
schema = Nokogiri::XML::Schema.from_document(schema_doc)
doc = Nokogiri::XML::Document.parse(File.read(XML_FILE))
schema.valid?(doc) # Boolean

Attributes

errors [RW]

The errors found while parsing the XSD

Returns

Array<Nokogiri::XML::SyntaxError>

parse_options [RW]

The options used to parse the schema

Returns

Nokogiri::XML::ParseOptions
