XML element name has empty space, how to address it in XSLT? - xslt

I started learning Linux couple of days ago and currently I'm stuck at XSLT. Sorry if it's a stupid question or already answered elsewhere, I'm quite new here.
My XML looks like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<lac xmlns:t="http://smth.de">
<header>
<order id="20210323346730329408"/>
<adress id="IZ0009"/>
</header>
<items>
<item id="1"><material><code>IS-0001-BT-1</code><lotcode/></material><qty>10,000000</qty><expiry/></item>
<item id="2"><material><code>IS-0001-BT-2</code><lotcode/></material><qty>20,000000</qty><expiry/></item>
<item id="3"><material><code>IS-0001-AZ-1</code><lotcode/></material><qty>30,000000</qty><expiry/></item>
<item id="4"><material><code>IS-0001-AZ-2</code><lotcode/></material><qty>40,000000</qty><expiry/></item>
</items>
</lac>
I want to get this output:
Order ID,Adress ID,Item ID,MaterialCode,MaterialLotCode,MaterialQty,Expiry
20210323346730329408,IZ0009,1,IS-0001-BT-1,,10,000000,
20210323346730329408,IZ0009,2,IS-0001-BT-2,,20,000000,
20210323346730329408,IZ0009,3,IS-0001-AZ-1,,30,000000,
20210323346730329408,IZ0009,4,IS-0001-AZ-2,,40,000000,
This is what I got sofar, Your help is very welcome:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">

<xsl:strip-space elements="*" />
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:text>Order ID,Adress ID,Item ID,MaterialCode,MaterialLotCode,MaterialQty,Expiry
</xsl:text>
<xsl:apply-templates mode="runHeader"/>
<xsl:apply-templates mode="runItems"/>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:text>,</xsl:text>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="items" mode="runItems">
<xsl:for-each select="//item">
<xsl:value-of select="./#id"/>
<xsl:text>,</xsl:text>
<xsl:value-of select="./material"/>
<xsl:text>,</xsl:text>
<xsl:value-of select="./lotcode"/>
<xsl:text>,</xsl:text>
<xsl:value-of select="./qty"/>
<xsl:text>,</xsl:text>
<xsl:value-of select="./expiry"/>
<xsl:text>
</xsl:text>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Many thanks in advance.

I would suggest a different approach:
XSLT 1.0
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output method="text" encoding="UTF-8"/>
<xsl:template match="/lac">
<!-- header row -->
<xsl:text>Order ID,Adress ID,Item ID,MaterialCode,MaterialLotCode,MaterialQty,Expiry
</xsl:text>
<!-- common data -->
<xsl:variable name="common">
<xsl:value-of select="header/order/#id"/>
<xsl:text>,</xsl:text>
<xsl:value-of select="header/adress/#id"/>
<xsl:text>,</xsl:text>
</xsl:variable>
<!-- data rows -->
<xsl:for-each select="items/item">
<xsl:copy-of select="$common"/>
<xsl:value-of select="#id"/>
<xsl:text>,</xsl:text>
<xsl:value-of select="material/code"/>
<xsl:text>,</xsl:text>
<xsl:value-of select="material/lotcode"/>
<xsl:text>,</xsl:text>
<xsl:value-of select="qty"/>
<xsl:text>,</xsl:text>
<xsl:value-of select="expiry"/>
<xsl:text>
</xsl:text>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Note that this assumes that each item has at most one material (your XML structure allows for more).

P.S. That's not how you spell address.

Multiple Counters in XSLT

I need to maintain 2 counters in my xslt - EntryID and RowID. I have a xml which contains Name and Certifications the person holds. Now I need to maintain one counter for each person (EntryID) and one for each certification (RowID). And on top of the certifications, I need to add one more certification "New" which will have a RowID one number higher than the maximum number certifications the person holds.
Below is the XML:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<wd:Report_Data xmlns:wd="urn:com.workday.report/bsvc">
<wd:Report_Entry>
<Name>Ram</Name>
<Certifications>
<Certificate>AWS</Certificate>
<Certificate>Workday</Certificate>
<Certificate>SAP</Certificate>
</Certifications>
</wd:Report_Entry>
<wd:Report_Entry>
<Name>Nitin</Name>
<Certifications>
<Certificate>Workday</Certificate>
</Certifications>
</wd:Report_Entry>
<wd:Report_Entry>
<Name>Joe</Name>
<Certifications>
<Certificate>SAP</Certificate>
<Certificate>AWS</Certificate>
</Certifications>
</wd:Report_Entry>
</wd:Report_Data>
The expected output is below. The name should appear only in the first row.
EntryID,Name,RowID,Certification
1,Ram,1,AWS
1,,2,Workday
1,,3,SAP
1,,4,NEW --> New certificate with row id 4 as Ram already has 3 certifications
2,Nitin,1,Workday --> Entry ID is 2 for Nitin and Row ID restarts from 1
2,,2,NEW
3,Joe,1,SAP
3,,2,AWS
3,,3,NEW
The XSLT I am able to build so far, but not giving desired output.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"

<xsl:value-of select="$delimeter"/>
<xsl:for-each select="Certifications/Certificate">
<RowID><xsl:value-of select="position()"/></RowID>
<xsl:value-of select="$delimeter"/>
<xsl:value-of select="."/>
</xsl:for-each>
<xsl:value-of select="$lineFeed"/>
<EntryID><xsl:value-of select="position()"/></EntryID>

<xsl:value-of select="$delimeter"/>
<text>NEW</text>
<xsl:value-of select="$lineFeed"/>
</xsl:for-each>
</root>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Please help me with correct XSLT.
To produce the wanted output with XSLT 3, I would use something like
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
version="3.0"
xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
exclude-result-prefixes="#all"
xmlns:wd="urn:com.workday.report/bsvc"
expand-text="yes">
<xsl:param name="delimeter" select="','"/>
<xsl:param name="lineFeed" select="'
'"/>
<xsl:output method="text"/>
<xsl:template match="wd:Report_Data">
<xsl:value-of select="'EntryID','Name','RowID','Certification'" separator="{$delimeter}"/>
<xsl:value-of select="$lineFeed"/>
<xsl:apply-templates select="wd:Report_Entry"/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="wd:Report_Entry">
<xsl:apply-templates select="Certifications/Certificate"/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="Certificate">
<xsl:variable name="entry-id" as="xs:integer">
<xsl:number count="wd:Report_Entry"/>
</xsl:variable>
<xsl:variable name="row-id" as="xs:integer">
<xsl:number/>
</xsl:variable>
<xsl:value-of select="$entry-id, (../../Name[$row-id = 1], '')[1], $row-id, ." separator="{$delimeter}"/>
<xsl:value-of select="$lineFeed"/>
<xsl:if test="position() = last()">
<xsl:value-of select="$entry-id, '', $row-id + 1, 'NEW'" separator="{$delimeter}"/>
<xsl:value-of select="$lineFeed"/>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
The XML result you show can be produced quite easily using:
XSLT 1.0
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
xmlns:wd="urn:com.workday.report/bsvc"
exclude-result-prefixes="wd">
<xsl:output method="xml" version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:template match="/wd:Report_Data">
<root>
<xsl:for-each select="wd:Report_Entry">
<row>
<EntryID>
<xsl:value-of select="position()" />
</EntryID>
<Name>
<xsl:value-of select="Name" />
</Name>
<xsl:for-each select="Certifications/Certificate">
<Certificate>
<RowID>
<xsl:value-of select="position()" />
</RowID>
<cName>
<xsl:value-of select="." />
</cName>
</Certificate>
</xsl:for-each>
<Certificate>
<RowID>
<xsl:value-of select="count(Certifications/Certificate) + 1" />
</RowID>
<cName>NEW</cName>
</Certificate>
</row>
</xsl:for-each>
</root>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
To get a "flat" CSV output, you can do:
XSLT 1.0
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
xmlns:wd="urn:com.workday.report/bsvc">
<xsl:output method="text" encoding="UTF-8"/>
<xsl:template match="/wd:Report_Data">
<!-- header -->
<xsl:text>EntryID,Name,RowID,Certification
</xsl:text>
<!-- data -->
<xsl:for-each select="wd:Report_Entry">
<xsl:variable name="entry-data">
<xsl:value-of select="position()" />
<xsl:text>,</xsl:text>
<xsl:value-of select="Name" />
<xsl:text>,</xsl:text>
</xsl:variable>
<!-- output -->
<xsl:for-each select="Certifications/Certificate">
<xsl:copy-of select="$entry-data"/>
<xsl:value-of select="position()" />
<xsl:text>,</xsl:text>
<xsl:value-of select="." />
<xsl:text>
</xsl:text>
</xsl:for-each>
<!-- new certificate -->
<xsl:copy-of select="$entry-data"/>
<xsl:value-of select="count(Certifications/Certificate) + 1" />
<xsl:text>,NEW
</xsl:text>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
which in XSLT 3.0 can be reduced to:
<xsl:stylesheet version="3.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
xmlns:wd="urn:com.workday.report/bsvc"
expand-text="yes">
<xsl:output method="text" encoding="UTF-8"/>
<xsl:template match="/wd:Report_Data">
<!-- header -->
<xsl:text>EntryID,Name,RowID,Certification
</xsl:text>
<!-- data -->
<xsl:for-each select="wd:Report_Entry">
<xsl:variable name="entry-data">{position()},{Name}</xsl:variable>
<!-- output -->
<xsl:for-each select="Certifications/Certificate, 'NEW'">{$entry-data},{position()},{.}
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

Specify output format of xslt

I know this is asked before but I can't find a simple example. Just trying to change output format. My existing XSLT is this and works but output format is always .txt.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:text>*,</xsl:text>
<xsl:value-of select="//AccountFields/AccountID"/>
<xsl:text>
</xsl:text>
<xsl:for-each select="//TransactionLine">
<xsl:variable name="i" select="position()" />
<xsl:value-of select="//AccountFields/AccountID"/>
<xsl:text>,</xsl:text>
<xsl:value-of select="ItemFields/ItemID"/>
<xsl:text>,</xsl:text>
<xsl:value-of select="TransactionLineFields/UnitQuantity"/>
<xsl:text>,</xsl:text>
<xsl:value-of select="TransactionLineFields/UnitPrice"/>
<xsl:text>
</xsl:text>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
I tried adding <xsl:result-document href="Order.csv" method="text"> but the file fails to generate completely and the tool I'm using doesn't give me a clear way to see errors.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:result-document href="Order.csv" method="text">
<xsl:text>*,</xsl:text>
<xsl:value-of select="//AccountFields/AccountID"/>
<xsl:text>
</xsl:text>
<xsl:for-each select="//TransactionLine">
<xsl:variable name="i" select="position()" />
<xsl:value-of select="//AccountFields/AccountID"/>
<xsl:text>,</xsl:text>
<xsl:value-of select="ItemFields/ItemID"/>
<xsl:text>,</xsl:text>
<xsl:value-of select="TransactionLineFields/UnitQuantity"/>
<xsl:text>,</xsl:text>
<xsl:value-of select="TransactionLineFields/UnitPrice"/>
<xsl:text>
</xsl:text>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:result-element>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
xsl:result-document is only available in XSLT 2.0 and later versions.
If you can use XSLT-2.0, you could pass parameters and set the method attribute with an attribute value template to
"xml" | "html" | "xhtml" | "text" | "json" | "adaptive" | eqname
Here, the file extension and the output method are set dynamically by parameters passed to the stylesheet:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="2.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:param name="fileExt" select="'.csv'" />
<xsl:param name="fileMethod" select="'xml'" />
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:result-document href="{concat('Order',$fileExt)}" method="{$fileMethod}">
<xsl:text>*,</xsl:text>
...
</xsl:result-document>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
It has been tested with Saxon.
If you wanted to change the xsl:output method instead, have a look at this question.

Transform the name of a node via a key-value list in XSLT

My Source XML sample looks like this.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<catalog>
<cd>
<T>A Book</T>
<A>A Man</A>
<D>Today</D>
</cd>
</catalog>
While 'T' means Title,'A' means Author,'D' means Date.
The output I want to get looks like this:
Title:A Book. Author:A Man. Date:Today
According to Implementing Key Value Concept in XSLT,I find that I can wirite the XSLT like this:
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
xmlns:my="my:my">
<xsl:output omit-xml-declaration="yes" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:strip-space elements="*"/>
<my:codes>
<code key="T" value="Title"/>
<code key="A" value="Author"/>
<code key="D" value="Date"/>
</my:codes>
<xsl:key name="kCodeByName" match="code" use="#key"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:for-each select="catalog/cd/*">
<xsl:apply-templates select="."/>:<xsl:value-of select="."/>.
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match= "node()[name() = document('')/*/my:codes/*/#key]">
<xsl:variable name="vCur" select="name()"/>
<xsl:for-each select="document('')">
<xsl:value-of select=
"key('kCodeByName', $vCur)/#value"/>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
But if I want to use
<xsl:apply-templates select="name()"/>:<xsl:value-of select="."/>.
rather than
<xsl:apply-templates select="."/>:<xsl:value-of select="."/>.
What should I change in XSLT?
name() is a function, not a node; you cannot apply templates to it or use it in a match pattern.
Why don't you do simply:
XSLT 1.0
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output method="text"/>
<xsl:strip-space elements="*"/>
<xsl:variable name="codes">
<code key="T" value="Title"/>
<code key="A" value="Author"/>
<code key="D" value="Date"/>
</xsl:variable>
<xsl:key name="kCodeByName" match="code" use="#key"/>
<xsl:template match="cd">
<xsl:apply-templates/>
<xsl:text>
</xsl:text>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="cd/*">
<xsl:variable name="vCur" select="name()"/>
<xsl:for-each select="document('')">
<xsl:value-of select="key('kCodeByName', $vCur)/#value"/>
</xsl:for-each>
<xsl:text>:</xsl:text>
<xsl:value-of select="."/>
<xsl:if test="position()!=last()">
<xsl:text>. </xsl:text>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Edit
If you prefer, you can change the last template to:
<xsl:template match="cd/*">
<xsl:call-template name="lookup">
<xsl:with-param name="key" select="name()"/>
</xsl:call-template>
<xsl:text>:</xsl:text>
<xsl:value-of select="."/>
<xsl:if test="position()!=last()">
<xsl:text>. </xsl:text>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:template>
and add:
<xsl:template name="lookup">
<xsl:param name="key"/>
<xsl:for-each select="document('')">
<xsl:value-of select="key('kCodeByName', $key)/#value"/>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>

xslt aggregation sum

I want do some sum of the values and return it as a row or column with the data.
taking the below xml as example:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no" ?>
<root>
<default0>
<Group>
<groupEntry>
<Day>Mon</Day>
<ID>111</ID>
<Number>-3</Number>
</groupEntry>
</Group>
<Group>
<groupEntry>
<Day>Tue</Day>
<ID>222</ID>
<Number>4</Number>
</groupEntry>
</Group>
<Group>
<groupEntry>
<Day>Tue</Day>
<ID>444</ID>
<Number>5</Number>
</groupEntry>
<Breakdown>
<Details>
<Day>Tue</Day>
<ID>444</ID>
<Number>-3</Number>
</Details>
<Details>
<Day>Tue</Day>
<ID>444</ID>
<Number>8</Number>
</Details>
</Breakdown>
</Group>
<Group>
<groupEntry>
<Day>Fri</Day>
<ID>333</ID>
<Number>-3</Number>
</groupEntry>
</Group>
</default0>
</root>
My below xslt :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output method="text"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:text>ID,Day,Number</xsl:text>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="groupEntry|Details">
<xsl:text>
</xsl:text>
<xsl:value-of select="ID"/>
<xsl:text>,</xsl:text>
<xsl:value-of select="Day"/>
<xsl:text>,</xsl:text>
<xsl:value-of select="Number"/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="text()"/>
</xsl:stylesheet>
returns this result:
ID,Day,Number
111,Mon,-3
222,Tue,4
444,Tue,5
444,Tue,-3
444,Tue,8
333,Fri,-3
However I want to get the total number by Day and report it in the result as either of the below 2 options
create 1 summary row like:
ID,Day,Number
Mon,Mon,-3
111,Mon,-3
Tue,Tue,9
222,Tue,4
444,Tue,5
444,Tue,-3
444,Tue,8
Fri,Fri,-3
333,Fri,-3
create an extra column:
ID,Day,Number,TotalNumber
111,Mon,-3,-3
222,Tue,4,9
444,Tue,5,9
444,Tue,-3,9
444,Tue,8,9
333,Fri,-3,-3
Does anyone know if this is possible?
In either option, you would probably need to define a key to group the elements by Day
<xsl:key name="days" match="groupEntry|Details" use="Day"/>
Then you can just add your extra column like so
<xsl:value-of select="sum(key('days', Day)/Number)"/>
Here is the full XSLT for the first option
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:key name="days" match="groupEntry|Details" use="Day"/>
<xsl:output method="text"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:text>ID,Day,Number,TotalNumber</xsl:text>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="groupEntry|Details">
<xsl:text>
</xsl:text>
<xsl:value-of select="ID"/>
<xsl:text>,</xsl:text>
<xsl:value-of select="Day"/>
<xsl:text>,</xsl:text>
<xsl:value-of select="Number"/>
<xsl:text>,</xsl:text>
<xsl:value-of select="sum(key('days', Day)/Number)"/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="text()"/>
</xsl:stylesheet>
This should output the following results
ID,Day,Number,TotalNumber
111,Mon,-3,-3
222,Tue,4,14
444,Tue,5,14
444,Tue,-3,14
444,Tue,8,14
333,Fri,-3,-3
In the second option, you would want to add a total line for the first occurrence of a particular Day. You can do this by checking if the current element is the first element in the key for that day
<xsl:if test="generate-id() = generate-id(key('days', Day)[1])">
Here is the XSLT for the second case
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:key name="days" match="groupEntry|Details" use="Day"/>
<xsl:output method="text"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:text>ID,Day,Number</xsl:text>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="groupEntry|Details">
<xsl:if test="generate-id() = generate-id(key('days', Day)[1])">
<xsl:text>
</xsl:text>
<xsl:value-of select="Day"/>
<xsl:text>,</xsl:text>
<xsl:value-of select="Day"/>
<xsl:text>,</xsl:text>
<xsl:value-of select="sum(key('days', Day)/Number)"/>
</xsl:if>
<xsl:text>
</xsl:text>
<xsl:value-of select="ID"/>
<xsl:text>,</xsl:text>
<xsl:value-of select="Day"/>
<xsl:text>,</xsl:text>
<xsl:value-of select="Number"/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="text()"/>
</xsl:stylesheet>
This should output the following results
ID,Day,Number
Mon,Mon,-3
111,Mon,-3
Tue,Tue,14
222,Tue,4
444,Tue,5
444,Tue,-3
444,Tue,8
Fri,Fri,-3
333,Fri,-3

Concatenate data into one variable

An XML file has data like:
<AddtlStsRsnInf>/00000002/Level 2 Reject</AddtlStsRsnInf>
<AddtlStsRsnInf>The Transaction Reference Number is</AddtlStsRsnInf>
<AddtlStsRsnInf>not unique.</AddtlStsRsnInf>
How do you concatenate the data from all the three tags into a variable?
Thanks and regards,
Kiran
This may help:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:template name="concat" match="/data">
<xsl:for-each select="AddtlStsRsnInf">

<xsl:if test="position() != last()">
<xsl:text> </xsl:text>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Given:
<?xml version="1.0"?>

You can wrap it in a variable (v) using:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:template name="concat" match="/data">
<xsl:variable name="v">
<xsl:for-each select="AddtlStsRsnInf">
<xsl:value-of select="." />
<xsl:if test="position() != last()">
<xsl:text> </xsl:text>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:variable>
<xsl:value-of select="$v" />
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
I think you would use something like:
<xsl:variable name="myVar" select="fn:string-join(//AddtlStsRsnInf/text(), ' ')" />
You'll need to adjust the XPath query if you're only supposed to select some AddtlStsRsnInf nodes.
