So, the answer to my question is "No" - you're unaware of whether anyone developed a method (utility?) of converting a XML Schema into custom strategy.
Thanks anyway.

The only safe way to convert mixed content using that json library is using the full config or custom config that specifies mixed elements for full conversion: xquery version "1.0-ml"; import module namespace json="http://marklogic.com/xdmp/json"; at "/MarkLogic/json/json.xqy"; let $xml := <p>hello <b>world</b> for the win!</p> let $config := json:config("full") let $_ := map:put($config, "full-element-names", "p") return json:transform-from-json(json:transform-to-json($xml, $config), $config) Cheers PS: nothing stops you from writing your own xml-json conversion lib though. Particularly xml 2 json should be fairly trivial with a bit of XSLT..

For the record, JSON is particularly bad at what we call "mixed content" in XML (what I guess Geert meant by "inline elements"). The idiomatic example of mixed content is the P element in HTML: it can contain text nodes as direct children, intermingled with other elements like B or EM or SPAN containing text nodes or other such elements themselves.

Keep in mind JSON is not very well suited for inline elements. I reckon you looked at the full strategy option of json:config? Rather verbose, but simple, and reliable roundtrip..

I've briefly looked at xml4js but from what I gleaned, it seems like you have to go through and enter every import/include and I'm starting with 44 imports in the first xsd and each of those probably has imports as well.
