# Validator
|
|
|
|
The validator is an XML validation-engine. It validates XML documents against XML Schema and Schematrons depending on self defined [scenarios](docs/configurations) which are used to fully configure the validation process.
|
|
The validator always outputs a [validation report in XML](docs/configurations.md#validators-report) including all validation errors and data about the validation.
|
|
|
|
## Releases
|
|
|
|
Two kind of releases are available:
|
|
|
|
Das Prüftool steht in zwei Varianten zur Verfügung:
|
|
|
|
- als standalone/cli, die von der Kommandozeile aus aufgerufen werden kann
|
|
- als Bibliothek/api, die in eigene Anwendungen integriert werden kann
|
|
|
|
* die *Standalone-Distribution* enthält das Uber-Jar mit allen Klassen zur Verarbeitung von Eingaben aus der Kommandozeile,
|
|
sowie für Ausgabeoptionen für Ergebnisse. Sämtliche Abhängigkeiten sind im Jar gebundlet und das Jar-File ist 'ausführbar'.
|
|
* die *Full-Distribution* enthält darüber sämtlichen weiteren Varianten des `validationtools` sowie die benötigten Abhängigkeiten.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
## Validation Configurations
|
|
|
|
The validator is just an engine and does not know anything about XML Documents and has no own validation rules.
|
|
|
|
Validation rules and details are defined in [validation scenarios](docs/configurations) which are used to fully configure the validation process.
|
|
|
|
All configurations are self-contained modules and deployed on their own.
|
|
|
|
### Third Party Validation Configurations
|
|
|
|
Currently, there are two public third party validation configurations available.
|
|
|
|
* Validation Configuration for [XRechnung](http://www.xoev.de/de/xrechnung) is available on
|
|
* Source code is available on [GitHub](https://github.com/itplr-kosit/validator-configuration-xrechnung)
|
|
* [Releases](https://github.com/itplr-kosit/validator-configuration-xrechnung/releases) can also be downloaded
|
|
* Validation Configuration for XGewerbeanzeige
|
|
* Source code is available on [GitHub](https://github.com/itplr-kosit/validator-configuration-xgewerbeanzeige)
|
|
* [Releases](https://github.com/itplr-kosit/validator-configuration-xgewerbeanzeige/releases) can also be downloaded

|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
### Standalone Command-Line Interface
|
|
|
|
The general way using the CLI is:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
java -jar validationtool-<version>-standalone.jar -s <scenario-config-file> [OPTIONS] [FILE] [FILE] [FILE] ...
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You can more CLI options by
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
java -jar validationtool-<version>-standalone.jar --help
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
A concrete example with a specific validator configuration can be found on [GitHub](https://github.com/itplr-kosit/validator-configuration-xrechnung
|
|
|
|
### Daemon-Mode
|
|
|
|
You can also start the validator as an HTTP-Server. Just start it in _Daemon-Mode_ with the `-D` option.
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
java -jar validationtool-<version>-standalone.jar -s <scenario-config-file> -D
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Per default the HTTP-Server listens on _localhost_ at Port 8080.
|
|
|
|
You can configure it with `-H` for IP Adress and `-P` for port number:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
java -jar validationtool-<version>-standalone.jar -s <scenario-config-file> -D -H 192.168.1.x -P 8081
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You can HTTP-POST to `/` and the response will return the report document as defined in your validator configuration.
|
|
|
|
Additionally there is the GET `/health` endpoint which can be used by monitoring systems.
|
|
|
|
### Application User Interface
|
|
|
|
The validator can also be used in own Java Applications via the API. Details can be [found here](./docs/api.md).
