Question - Set default / fixed value for an attribute

[silahide]

Hi,

Is it possible to set a default or fixed value for an attribute? I can set it in the xsd but then I cannot see it initialised in the PHP class.

Many thanks.

Hi,

Is there a way of initialising by default and attribute or a const in the php class through the schema? It would be useful to define something like:

<xs:attribute name="marvin" fixed="i.smp.pat.sampl"></xs:attribute> or
<xs:elemnt name="marvin" default="i.smp.pat.sampl"></xs:element>

And produce:
const MARVIN = "i.smp.pat.sample"; or
$marvin = "i.smp.pat.sample";

Hi, currently is not yet implemented, but should be not too hard to add it.

A good starting point is

xsd2php/src/Php/PhpConverter.php

Line 376 in 5258cf8

private function visitAttribute(PHPClass $class, Schema $schema, AttributeItem $attribute, $arrayize = true)

Pull requests are welcome

Hi, I wouldn't mind to do it however I can only work as a user of this library.

If is not too hard to add it, could you label it as "feature request" or implement it?

It would be really handful for integrating data coming from different sources. For instance, if raw data is stored in a different XML, this feature streamlines the self-filling of values by writing only few lines of code. Thus makes sense to describe the id of the source of the data in the schema.

marked as feature request. feel free to submit an implementation for this feature.
