XMLReader::isValid

(PHP 5 >= 5.1.0, PHP 7, PHP 8)

XMLReader::isValidIndique si le document analysé est valide

Description

public XMLReader::isValid(): bool

Retourne un booléen indiquant si le document qui est en train d'être analysé est valide selon le DTD, ou un schéma XML ou RelaxNG. S'il n'y a pas de schéma et que l'option de validation DTD n'est pas fournie, cette méthode renverra false.

Liste de paramètres

Cette fonction ne contient aucun paramètre.

Valeurs de retour

Retourne true lorsque le document est valide, sinon false.

Exemples

Exemple #1 Validation XML

<?php
$xml
= XMLReader::open('test.xml');

// L'option de validation de l'analyseur doit être
// active pour que cette méthode fonctionne correctement
$xml->setParserProperty(XMLReader::VALIDATE, true);

var_dump($xml->isValid());
?>

Notes

Note: Cette méthode vérifie le nœud courant, et non le document complet.

1. If you validate against relax-ng, no need to call $xml->setParserProperty(XMLReader::VALIDATE, true);

2. Be aware that $xml->isValid() will return validity for currently active node (ie. node currently positioned using $xml->read()). It won't check validity of your entire tree at once, but rather on a step by step basis

I encountered some problems to use isValid method with xml2assoc function.
I use this way to validate the entire xml file and put it into an associative array.

$xml = new XMLReader();
if (!$xml->xml($xml_string, NULL, LIBXML_DTDVALID)) {
  echo "XML not valid: load error";
  exit();
}

libxml_use_internal_errors(TRUE);

$xml_array = xml2assoc($xml);

$arErrors = libxml_get_errors();
$xml_errors = "";
foreach ($arErrors AS $xmlError) $xml_errors .= $xmlError->message;
if ($xml_errors != "") {
  echo "XML not valid: ".$xml_errors;
  exit();
}

//all ok

This comment is only partially correct:
"isValid() always returns false unless you enable checking for validity by $reader->setParserProperty(XMLReader::VALIDATE, true);"
This enables DTD checking, but you can also check by using RelaxNG (see setRelaxNGSchema() and setRelaxNGSchemaSource()).

And also, this is NOT correct:
"If you just need to check if XML file is well formed, successful loading into XMLReader object is usually enough."
It is not enough. Pull parsers operate on stream and if you have a large enough file they will not know it is well formed until it is read to the end. If you need to know if it is well formed or/and valid, read it till the end or validation error (you can use next() for fast reading if you don't care about contents).
