A note to my future self:
Scenario: validating a document using Nokogiri and a xsd which references other schemas.
Error: Something like:
schema.rb:37:in `from_document': attribute use (unknown), attribute 'ref': The QName value '{http://url.of.the.referenced.schema}blah' does not resolve to a(n) attribute declaration. (Nokogiri::XML::SyntaxError)
or the referenced schemas are using a URL to somewhere out there and Nokogiri tries to download it, in which case the script is slowed down or it throws a download error.
Solution: If you reference remote schemas, download them and put them all together in a single directory. If you already have the xsd files in your machine, just put them together in the same directory. Then change your xsd to use a relative path. For example:
Change this
<xs:import namespace="http://www.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace"
schemaLocation="http://www.w3.org/2001/xml.xsd"/>
to
<xs:import namespace="http://www.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace"
schemaLocation="xml.xsd"/>
Then wrap the validation code inside a Dir.chdir call. Like this:
Dir.chdir(somewhere) do
schema = Nokogiri::XML::Schema(IO.read('your-schema.xsd'))
doc = Nokogiri::XML(IO.read(doc_path))
schema.validate(doc)
end
