OJXV: Open Journals XML Validator
OJXV validates Open Journals' publishing pipeline XML outputs (JATS and Crossref).
Installation
gem install ojxv
Usage
OJXV can be used to validate JATS and Crossref XML files against the following schema versions:
- JATS:
- 1.1
- 1.1d1
- 1.1d2
- 1.1d3
- 1.2
- 1.2d1
- 1.2d2
- 1.3d1
- 1.3
- Crossref:
- 4.8.0
- 4.8.1
- 5.1.0
- 5.2.0
- 5.3.0
- 5.3.1
Validating JATS files
Use the OJXV::JatsFile class:
require "ojxv"
jats_file_path = "example/paper.jats"
jats_file = OJXV::JatsFile.new(jats_file_path)
# By default validation is performed against JATS v1.3
jats_file.valid_jats? #=> true / false
# Validating against a specific schema version:
jats_file.valid_jats?("1.2") #=> true / false
# After validating, errors can be queried:
jats_file.errors #=> [] / ["Error: missing element article", "Error: invalid namespace", ...]Validating Crossref XML files
Use the OJXV::CrossrefMetadataFile class:
require "ojxv"
crossref_file_path = "example/paper.crossref"
crossref_file = OJXV::CrossrefMetadataFile.new(crossref_file_path)
# By default validation is performed against Crossref 5.3.1
crossref_file.valid_crossref? #=> true / false
# Validating against a specific schema version:
crossref_file.valid_crossref?("4.8.0") #=> true / false
# After validating, errors can be queried:
crossref_file.errors #=> [] / ["Error: missing element article", "Error: invalid namespace", ...]License
