NAME¶

autoyast-xml-validate

SYNOPSIS¶

autoyast-xml-validate (-u URL | -s SYSTEM -c COBBLER | -f FILE) [-p PROFILE | -d DISTRO [ -a ARCH ] ] [-v] [-h] [--save] autoyast-xml-validate (-u URL | -f FILE | -c COBBLER ( -s COBBLER_SYSTEM | -p COBBLER_PROFILE ) | -l) [-r PROFILE_RNG] [-P PRODUCT] [-a ARCH] [--save] [-v]

DESCRIPTION¶

Use this script to validate autoyast XML config files.

The XML syntax (profile.rng) to check against is specified via -p or -d parameter.

If none is given /usr/share/YaST2/schema/autoyast/rng/profile.rng is used (part of yast2-schema package)

OPTIONS¶

LOCATE AUTOYAST XML FILE WHICH GETS SYNTAX CHECKED (one is mandatory):

-u URL, --url URL
Use autoyast XML from URL (default: False)
-f FILE, --file FILE
Use autoyast XML from file (default: False)
-s SYSTEM, --system SYSTEM
Use autoyast XML from machine (default: False) Needs --cobbler
-p PROFILE, --profile PROFILE
Use autoyast XML from cobbler profile (default: False) Needs --cobbler
-c COBBLER, --cobbler COBBLER
Cobbler IP address Needs --system or --profile

LOCATE XML AUTOYAST DEFINITIONS (profile.rng):
(default: /usr/share/YaST2/schema/autoyast/rng/profile.rng)

-r PROFILE_RNG, --profile-rng PROFILE_RNG
Path to RELAX NG schema to use to validate XML (profile.rng)
-P PRODUCT, --product PRODUCT
Distribution specific XML syntax to check against
This needs yast2-schemas package installed
(by default uses x86_64 installed architecture specific
XML declarations)
-a ARCH, --arch ARCH
Needs --distro parameter
Chose a different architecture XML definition
(default x86_64)

-l, --list
Show products and archs (to be used with -P [ -a ] param)
of installed and available XML syntax definitions

--save
Always store retrieved XML file, not only in error case. Especially useful if autoyast.xml is retrieved via -u URL or cobbler parameters. The file can be further edited or worked on, also if syntax check was successful.

-h, --help show this help message and exit
-v, --verbose Raise verbosity level

RETURN VALUE¶

0:  Successful XML validation
1:  Unknown error
2:  Syntax error
3:  IO error
99: XML validation failed

ENVIRONMENT¶

Dependencies to other packages:

jing libxml2 yast2-schema yast2-schemas

FILES¶

/usr/share/YaST2/schema/autoyast/rng/* (installed by yast2-schema)

/usr/share/YaST2/schema/autoyast/distros/{tw,leap15.3,sle-15-sp3,..}/{x86_64,aarch64,...}/rng/* (installed by yast2-schemas)

EXAMPLES¶

autoyast-xml-validate -f /tmp/autoyast.xml

Local autoyast.xml check - Check against a local XML file
(using rng files from locally installed yast2-schema package)

autoyast-xml-validate -c cobbler.arch.suse.de -m zinfandel-4.arch.suse.de --save

cobbler generated autoyast.xml check
Download and validate against a cobbler generated autoyast.xml

-> this ends up in this URL:
http://cobbler.arch.suse.de/cblr/svc/op/autoinstall/system/zinfandel-4.arch.suse.de
-> --save option will store the downloaded autoyast.xml file locally as well for
further debugging or development.

autoyast-xml-validate -c cobbler.arch.suse.de -m zinfandel-4.arch.suse.de -d sle-15-sp3 -a aarch64

cobbler generated autoyast.xml SLE 15 SP3 aarch64 check:
Download and validate against a cobbler generated autoyast.xml using SLE 15 SP3
aarch64 XML definitions

autoyast-xml-validate -f /tmp/autoyast_xml_validator__di2jtqv -d sle-15-sp3 -a ppc64le

Validate (probably previously with --save param downloaded) autoyast file against
sle-15-sp3/ppc64le XML syntax correctness.

autoyast-xml-validate --list

List all available distros and their XML (profile.rng) definitions found on disk
