Examples of Supported Schema

PyXB comes with pre-defined bundles which aggregate related namespaces into pre-generated bindings that allow you to use them without having to generate and manage them yourself. These bundles also demonstrate the complexity of schema that PyXB is prepared to handle. Not all namespaces have been fully tested, but they are expected to function correctly.

OpenGIS

The following namespaces are available in support of Open Geospatial Consortium Geographic Information System processing. Note that several of these namespaces are “private” bindings generated because the OGC definitions include their own schema. The modules corresponding to these namespace uses begin with an underscore, and should generally not be used in other contexts.

Layout of a Bundle Directory

The pyxb/bundles directory contains groups of bindings for related schema. These groups are called “bundles”, and each subdirectory represents a particular bundle.

With a bundle directory, the following are expected:

  • A scripts directory, containing an executable genbind which retrieves the schema and invokes pyxbgen to build the bindings
  • A schemas directory, into which the genbind script stores the schemas that were used to build the bindings
  • The Python module files for namespace modules. Normally these are customization wrappers
  • A raw subdirectory, into which the generated bindings are placed. Note that this directory is normally removed and recreated as a consequence of running genbind; ddn’t expect anything in it to be persistent.
  • An examples directory, with programs that show how to use the capabilities in the bundle
  • A tests directory which validates customizations

Generating Bundled Bindings

To create the support infrastructure for a particular bundle, set the PYXB_ROOT environment variable and run the scripts/genbind script in the bundle root. For example:

cd ${PYXB_ROOT}
pyxb/bundles/wssplat/scripts/genbind

will invoke the wget(1) program to retrieve the XML schema for a variety of namespaces related to web services and then generate bindings and archive files for them.
