Perl, LibXML and Schemas

问题


I have an example Perl script which I am trying to load and validate a file against a schema, them interrogate various nodes.

#!/usr/bin/env perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use XML::LibXML;

my $filename = 'source.xml';
my $xml_schema = XML::LibXML::Schema->new(location=>'library.xsd');
my $parser = XML::LibXML->new ();
my $doc = $parser->parse_file ($filename);

eval {
    $xml_schema->validate ($doc);
};

if ($@) {
    print "File failed validation: $@" if $@;
}

eval {
    print "Here\n";
    foreach my $book ($doc->findnodes('/library/book')) {
        my $title = $book->findnodes('./title');
        print $title->to_literal(), "\n";

    }
};

if ($@) {
    print "Problem parsing data : $@\n";
}

Unfortunately, although it is validating the XML file fine, it is not finding any $book items and therefore not printing out anything.

If I remove the schema from the XML file and the validation from the PL file then it works fine.

I am using the default namespace. If I change it to not use the default namespace (xmlns:lib="http://libs.domain.com" and prefix all items in the XML file with lib and change the XPath expressions to include the namespace prefix (/lib:library/lib:book) then it again works file.

Why? and what am I missing?

From the XML::LibXML docs:

A common mistake about XPath is to assume that node tests consisting of an element name with no prefix match elements in the default namespace. This assumption is wrong - by XPath specification, such node tests can only match elements that are in no (i.e. null) namespace. ...(and later)... ...The recommended way is to use the XML::LibXML::XPathContext module

So, from the perspective of XPath, there is no "default" namespace...for any non-null namespace, you have to specify it in your XPath. The XML::LibXML::XPathContext module lets you create a prefix for any namespace to use in your XPath expression.
