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).
