XML Files

|
---------
|
|
|
|
In this directory you will find schema and dtd files related to the GnuCash
|
|
xml file format.
|
|
|
|
WARNING: Please be aware that these files are informative only.
|
|
GnuCash doesn't use them in any way. Their only function is to document
|
|
(parts of) the xml data format's internals.
|
|
|
|
Probably the most complete file is gnucash.rnc. As of November 2012, this
|
|
is a fairly complete Relax NG representation for the GnuCash xml format.
|
|
|
|
You could use this file to validate any gnucash xml file. But note the above
|
|
warning. If you get validation errors on a file generated by GnuCash that
|
|
probably means the relax ng schema is out of date or for the wrong version
|
|
and not that the gnucash file is incorrect.
|
|
|
|
There are a couple of ways to use the Relax NG schema:
|
|
1. convert to xml format and then use xmllint:
|
|
trang gnucash-v2.rnc gnucash-v2.rng
|
|
xmllint --relaxng gnucash-v2.rng --noout test.gnucash
|
|
|
|
2. Use the file as is with jing:
|
|
jing -c gnucash-v2.rnc test.gnucash
|
|
echo $? (just to check, jing is silent on success)
|
|
|
|
Both trang and jing can be found here:

|
|
|
|
If you have any questions with validation errors with your files, just send
|
|
a note on the gnucash-user@gnucash.org mailing list.
|
|
|
|
A small note from the last author (Baptiste Carvello):
|
|
Most probably you will find some cases where the schema is too constrained, as
|
|
I've tried to be quite strict.
