XML-->XSD/XST/DTD Validate

#1

Hi, i´m upgrade to sublime text 3. But i have one problem with xml/xsd/xst/dtd.

I need validate this documents but i cant or i dont know that extension/puglin.

Someone knows some complement that validates the document.

I tried “Exalt” but not validate them and it usually gives me problems.

Since I use xml, I’m with the notepad ++ and xml tools extension.I need something similar, does it exist for sublime text?

Regards

what specific problems do you have with Exalt? the package maintainer might be able to help you if you log details at https://github.com/eerohele/exalt/issues

It seems to work by luck, only. I tried Exalt out with catalogs being promoted by the author. It does either say nothing or just “error parsing DTD”. No hint which one fails. Using xmllint.exe --catalogs --valid … on the same file, works fine. So I don’t see what it complains about. It can’t at least validate the catalog.xml files. The files in the packages test folder work properly on the other hand.

I use, but not validate the xml/dtd/schema.It is an error at the beginning that it is not an error

For example. Where they said “If your file doesn’t validate, you can press ⌘ + Ctrl + E to jump to the
validation error if it’s not already in view” what key is “⌘” in the keyboard ?¿

Then, i try to install the catalogs, but it gives me error.

When i try to put:

<catalog xmlns="urn:oasis:names:tc:entity:xmlns:xml:catalog">
  <nextCatalog catalog="catalogs/catalog.xml"/>
</catalog>

I was able to resolve the issue with the message “error parsing DTD” today.

I am on a Windows 10 box which does not provide XML catalogs by default. Thus the environment variable XML_CATALOG_FILES does not exist. Exalt creates it upon startup but it seems too late. The lxml package being used for validation does not see these changes even though running os.environ["XML_CATALOG_FILES"] from ST’s console prints all the correct urls from Exalt.sublime-settings.

I set XML_CATALOG_FILES to the valid catalog file paths in Windows control panel, restarted and Exalt is working like a charm.

You can’t use the "xml_catalog_files": [] to set your catalog file paths.

I am not sure why, but I guess the reason is lxml being used by XPath and maybe some other packages, too, which might load lxml before Exalt is able to manipulate the environment variable.
