According to the XML specification[1], a content model is a "simple grammar governing the allowed types of the child elements and the order in which they are allowed to appear". XML content models may be specified in a number of schema languages, including DTD, XSD, and Relax NG.
1 Simplified Relax NG
Content models in the Relax NG compact syntax are relatively readable, and the Relax NG syntax is highly expressive.
See the directory listing at http://deliberation.ruleml.org/1.03/simplified .
These informative simplified monolithic compact Relax NG grammars are auto-generated from the normative modular Relax NG schemas by the language-preserving Bash script http://deliberation.ruleml.org/1.03/bash/batch_rnc2simp.sh , which calls
- Jing to simplify the normative modular Relax NG schemas, producing the result as in the XML-based syntax of Relax NG, and
- Trang to convert back to the compact RNC syntax.
The content models thus produced are (feature) complete for the normalized, compact, and relaxed serializations, except for explicit datatyping (due to a bug in Jing).
2 HTML Schemadocs for XSDs
See the directory listing at http://deliberation.ruleml.org/1.03/doc .
The capabilities of oXygenXML are exploited to produce diagrammatic representations of the content models. The Bash script http://deliberation.ruleml.org/1.03/bash/build_xsd2doc.sh generates the Schemadocs from several of the auto-generated XSD schemas (http://deliberation.ruleml.org/1.03/xsd). The normalized serialization is documented, for brevity. A selection of anchor languages is made available, ranging from the supremum language nafhologeq to the minimal datalogplus. The naffologeq language, which was the supremum language of previous versions from 0.91 to 1.01, is also available for comparison purposes. Additionally, an intermediate language, disdatalogplus_mid demonstrates how MYNG may be used to define precisely a customized language including (only) selected features.- ↑ XML Specification (Element Content): https://www.w3.org/TR/xml/#sec-element-content
