Brunty\\DOMDocument
===================

[](#bruntydomdocument)

[![Build Status](https://camo.githubusercontent.com/656462e201acd41dae02b09424ffc8a6d417e328d6c10a2587d64e9e476acf04/68747470733a2f2f7472617669732d63692e6f72672f4272756e74792f7068702d72656c61782d6e672d646f6d646f63756d656e742e7376673f6272616e63683d6d6173746572)](https://travis-ci.org/Brunty/php-relax-ng-domdocument)

This class is just a little helper to remove error handling when using `DOMDocument::relaxNGValidate` and `DOMDocument::relaxNGValidateSource` as by default, PHP warnings are generated when validation fails.

Compatibility
-------------

[](#compatibility)

- PHP 5.6 and above

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

`composer require brunty/relax-ng-domdocument`

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

The class extents `\DOMDocument` and the method calls are compatible with the parent class.

```
$document = new \Brunty\DOMDocument;
$document->load('my-file.xml');

$result = $document->relaxNGValidate('my-schema.rng');
// or
$result = $document->relaxNGValidateSource(file_get_contents('my-schema.rng'));

// $result will be true / false depending on whether the document validated
```

You can get the warnings that came up during validation by using the `getValidationWarnings()` method, it'll return an array of the warning messages generated.

```
$document = new \Brunty\DOMDocument;
$document->load('my-invalid-file.xml');

$result = $document->relaxNGValidate('my-schema.rng');

$warnings = $document->getValidationWarnings();
```
