Depends a LOT on the kind of XML files. Are they the document kind,
mixed content all around? Like a HTML file? Or are they the structured
kind with a fixed structure?
Your main problem will probably be mapping the xml structure to a
relational model.
Some brainstorming:
- Look at a nosql backend for Django: a nosql database might store xml
in a more xml-friendly way.
- First convert the xml to json? Might be easier to store?
- Convert the .xsd schema to .rng or something like that: more readable.
And, importantly, easier parseable by a python script: you could write
your own models.py generator this way :-)
- Do you want to store it in separate models or in one big chunk of
xml/json? Depends on how you want to edit.
