xml-validate: Validate one or more XML documents against an XML Schema Definition (XSD).
$ xml validate --xsd ${path-to-schema-xsd} ${select} ${input2-xml ---}
try on your machine

The given command appears to be performing XML validation against a specified XML Schema Definition (XSD) file. Let's break down the command and its parameters:

  • xml: This is the command or tool being used to perform XML-related operations.
  • validate: This is a specific action or subcommand of the xml tool, indicating that XML validation is to be performed.
  • --xsd ${path-to-schema-xsd}: This parameter specifies the path to the XSD file (XML Schema Definition) that will be used for validating the XML. ${path-to-schema-xsd} is a placeholder that should be replaced with the actual file path of the XSD.
  • ${select}: This parameter likely represents the XML document or set of elements within the XML that needs to be validated. It could be a path expression or an XML node selection mechanism indicating which part of the XML will undergo validation. Again, this is a placeholder that should be replaced with the appropriate selection.
  • ${input2-xml ---}: This parameter denotes the input XML file that is to be validated. ${input2-xml ---} is another placeholder that should be replaced with the actual XML file path.

To summarize, the given command is validating a specific part of an XML (${select}) against an XSD file (${path-to-schema-xsd}). The results of the validation would typically indicate whether the selected XML is conforming to the rules and structure defined in the XSD.
