eLife-JATS-schematron

Schematron for all JATS eLife content.

There are two sets of schematron files:

VOR schematron

3 Schematron files are intended to be used:

  • src/pre-JATS-schematron.sch (for pre-author validation).
  • src/dl-schematron.sch (for decision letter/author response only related checks)
  • src/final-JATS-schematron.sch (for post-author validation).

src/final-package-JATS-schematron.sch is an extension of src/final-JATS-schematron.sch, which includes java based checks for the presence of assets referenced in the XML. This is only intended for local use (via oXygen).

These three files are all derived from running xquery/refactor.xq on src/schematron.sch. src/schematron.sch is not intended to be used as a Schematron file itself, rather treated as master file from which other VOR-related files are derived and all patterns can be tested.

Reviewed preprint schematron

  • src/rp-schematron.sch is used for validating eLife reviewed preprints. Additionally included is src/meca-manifest-schematron.sch which is intended to be used locally (via oXygen) to validate the manifest files within MECA packages produced by production vendors.

Testing

An XSpec file is generated from src/schematron.sch and src/rp-schematron.sch when xquery/refactor.xq is run (test/xspec/schematron.xspec and test/xspec/rp-schematron.xspec) (XSpec: https://github.com/xspec/xspec/wiki).

XSpec unit testing is carried out on a pr based on every test/xspec/*.xspec.

In depth info for writing tests

For every sch:assert and sch:report there is both a pass.xml and fail.xml file. It's expected that fail.xml will fire, but pass.xml will not. A Schemalet file is included in each folder, which allows for default validation in oXygen when writing the tests. Schemalets also include a test for the context of the rule being tested - i.e. for a test in the context of article-meta, there must be an article-meta element as a descendant of the root element in both test files for them to pass unit testing.

Schemalets and new pass/fail cases are generated from src/schematron.sch using xquery/write-tests.xq (generated XML files only include <root><article/></root> and need content added - as specified above).

Running xquery/get-xspec-failures.xq provides a list of pass/fail cases which do not pass the unit testing (based on the latest local output of xspec/xspec/schematron-result.xml and xspec/xspec/rp-schematron-result.xml).

Docker

You can now build a container based on basexhttp that contains the schematron and can be used for testing.

docker build . --tag elife-schematron:test
docker run --rm --memory="512Mi" -p 1984:1984 -p 8984:8984 elife-schematron:test

You can then interact with the service on port 8984 for example using either...

curl -F xml=@elife45905.xml http://localhost:8984/schematron/pre
curl -F xml=@elife45905.xml http://localhost:8984/schematron/final
