Populate XML file from dictionary based on schema

I have an XML schema in an .xsd file. I want to create a valid XML file from a dictionary based on that schema.



In pseudo-code I would like to do something like:



schema = SomeLib.load('path/to/myschema.xsd')
xml = schema.write({'root' : {'element1' : value1, 'element2' : value2} })


I found the generateDS package, but the documentation not shows a way to do it.



Can it be done or schemas are only useful for validation? For that purpose I found lots of libs and examples? I'm interested in packages that support Python3.
