I have a DTD that I want to convert into a database schema. (For the curious, it's the XML DTD for Kismet's XML output; see http://www.kismetwireless.net/ and http://kismetwireless.net/kismet-3.1.0.dtd). After converting it to a W3C XML schema, it looks like it has the sort of infroamtion that is needed to generate tables, columns, and foreign key constraints. There's some oddities, such as boolean values being stored as enums: <attribute name='wep' use='default' value='false'> <simpleType> <restriction base='string'> <enumeration value='true'/> <enumeration value='false'/> </restriction> </simpleType> </attribute> Is there some existing art that will take such a DTD or XML schema and convert it into CREATE TABLEs for postgresql?
I don't think there is anything that will do it for you.. but that could be a good project for http://pgfoundry.org/ if you want to share it.
