NAME

       pyxbgen — Python XML Schema Bindings Generator

SYNOPSIS

       pyxbgen [command]  [[options]]  [[more schema locations...]]

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents briefly the pyxbgen command.

       This manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the original program does
       not have a manual page.

       pyxbgen is a program that generates Python bindings from XML schema files or WSDL input.

Generic Options

                           --version
                 Show program’s version number and exit.

                           --help
                 Show help message and exit.

Identifying Schema

       Specify and locate schema for which bindings should be generated.

                           -u FILE_or_URL                     --schema-location=FILE_or_URL
                 Add the location of an entrypoint schema. The provided value should be a URL. If
                 it  does not have a URL scheme (e.g., http:), it is assumed to be a file, and if
                 it is not an absolute path is located relative to the schemaRoot.

                           --schema-root=DIRECTORY
                 The directory from which entrypoint schemas specified  as  relative  file  paths
                 will be read.

                           --schema-stripped-prefix=TEXT
                 Optional  string  that  is  stripped from the beginning of schemaLocation values
                 before loading from them. This applies only  to  the  values  of  schemaLocation
                 attributes  in  import  and include elements. Its purpose is to convert absolute
                 schema locations into relative ones to allow offline processing when all  schema
                 are available in a local directory. See schemaRoot.

                           --location-prefix-rewrite=TEXT
                 Add  a  rewrite  entry for schema locations. Parameter values are strings of the
                 form pfx=sub. The effect is that a schema  location  that  begins  with  pfx  is
                 rewritten so that it instead begins with sub.

                           --uri-content-archive-directory=DIRECTORY
                 The directory path into which any content retrieved by URI will be written. This
                 serves as a local cache, and to give you  an  opportunity  to  inspect  material
                 retrieved from some other system.

Configuring Bindings

       Specify  where  generated  bindings  should be written, and how they will be accessed from
       Python.

                           -m MODULE                     --module=MODULE
                 Add a module name corresponding to an entrypoint schema. The  namespace  defined
                 by  the corresponding schema will be written to a binding using the given module
                 name, adjusted by modulePrefix.

                           --module-prefix=MODULE
                 The prefix for binding modules. The base name for the module holding  a  binding
                 is  taken from the moduleList, moduleMap, or an XMLNS prefix associated with the
                 namespace in a containing schema. This value, if present, is used as a prefix to
                 allow a deeper module hierarchy.

                           --binding-root=DIRECTORY
                 The directory path into which generated bindings will be written.

                           --write-for-customization
                 Indicates  whether  the  binding Python code should be written into a sub-module
                 for customization. If enabled, a module path.to.namespace will be written to the
                 file  path/to/raw/namespace.py, so that the file path/to/namespace.py can import
                 it and override behavior. This option turns on the feature.

                           --no-write-for-customization
                 Indicates whether the binding Python code should be written into a  sub-  module
                 for customization. If enabled, a module path.to.namespace will be written to the
                 file path/to/raw/namespace.py, so that the file path/to/namespace.py can  import
                 it and override behavior. This option turns off the feature (default).
