Method Details

[hide private]

minOccurs(self)

source code

The minimum number of times the term may appear.

Defaults to 1.

maxOccurs(self)

source code

Upper limit on number of times the term may appear.

If None, the term may appear any number of times; otherwise, this is an integral value indicating the maximum number of times the term may appear. The default value is 1; the value, unless None, must always be at least minOccurs().

pluralityData(self)

source code

Return the plurality data for this component.

The plurality data for a particle is the plurality data for its term, with the counts scaled by the effect of maxOccurs.

effectiveTotalRange(self)

source code

Extend the concept of effective total range to all particles.

See http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlschema-1/#cos-seq-range and http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlschema-1/#cos-choice-range

isEmptiable(self)

source code

Return True iff this particle can legitimately match an empty sequence (no content).

See http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlschema-1/#cos-group-emptiable

hasWildcardElement(self)

source code

Return True iff this particle has a wildcard in its term.

Note that the wildcard may be in a nested model group.

init(self, term, *args, **kw)
(Constructor)

source code

Create a particle from the given DOM node.

term is a XML Schema Component: one of ModelGroup, ElementDeclaration, and Wildcard.

The following keyword arguments are processed:

min_occurs is a non-negative integer value with default 1, denoting the minimum number of terms required by the content model.

max_occurs is a positive integer value with default 1, or None indicating unbounded, denoting the maximum number of terms allowed by the content model.

scope is the _ScopeDeclaration_mxin context that is assigned to declarations that appear within the particle. It can be None, indicating no scope defined, or a complex type definition.

Parameters:

scope - The scope in which the component is defined
namespace_context - The NamespaceContext to use within this component
node - If no namespace_context is provided, a DOM node must be provided from which a namespace context can be identified.
owner - Reference to the component that owns this one (the immediately enclosing component). Is None in the case of top-level components.
schema - Reference to the Schema component to which the component belongs. Required for every component except Schema, Annotation, and Wildcard.

Overrides: object.__init__

_resolve(self)

source code

Perform whatever steps are required to resolve this component.

Resolution is performed in the context of the namespace to which the component belongs. Invoking this method may fail to complete the resolution process if the component itself depends on unresolved components. The sole caller of this should be _NamespaceResolution_mixin.resolveDefinitions.

This method is permitted (nay, encouraged) to raise an exception if resolution requires interpreting a QName and the named component cannot be found.

Override this in the child class. In the prefix, if isResolved is true, return right away. If something prevents you from completing resolution, invoke self._queueForResolution() (so it is retried later) and immediately return self. Prior to leaving after successful resolution discard any cached dom node by setting self.__domNode=None.

Returns:

self, whether or not resolution succeeds.

Raises:

pyxb.SchemaValidationError - if resolution requlres a reference to an unknown component

Overrides: namespace.resolution._Resolvable_mixin._resolve

(inherited documentation)

isResolved(self)

source code

Determine whether this named component is resolved.

Override this in the child class.

Overrides: namespace.resolution._Resolvable_mixin.isResolved: (inherited documentation)

CreateFromDOM(cls, node, **kw)
Class Method

source code

Create a particle from the given DOM node.

wxs is a Schema instance within which the model group is being defined.

node is a DOM element. The name must be one of ( 'group', 'element', 'any', 'all', 'choice', 'sequence' ), and the node must be in the XMLSchema namespace.

scope is the _ScopeDeclaration_mxin context that is assigned to declarations that appear within the model group. It can be None, indicating no scope defined, or a complex type definition.

_bindingRequires_vx(self, include_lax)

source code

Placeholder for subclass method that identifies the necessary components.

Returns: frozenset

The component instances on which this component depends

Raises:

LogicError - A subclass failed to implement this method

Overrides: namespace._ComponentDependency_mixin._bindingRequires_vx

(inherited documentation)
