XSLT code to remove xml tag - xslt

I have an incoming XML like below: I need to remove the <shoeboxImage> tag from the incoming below XML.
Incoming XML Input:
<attachReceipt>
<baseMessage>
<returnCode>200</returnCode>
</baseMessage>
<payload>
<returnCode>0</returnCode>
<shoeboxItem>
<shoeboxImageCount>2</shoeboxImageCount>
<shoeboxImages>
<shoeboxImage>
<name>receiptImage.jpg</name>
</shoeboxImage>
<shoeboxImage>
<name>receiptImage.jpg</name>
</shoeboxImage>
</shoeboxImages>
</shoeboxItem>
</payload>
</attachReceipt>
Expected Output:
<attachReceipt>
<baseMessage>
<returnCode>200</returnCode>
</baseMessage>
<payload>
<returnCode>0</returnCode>
<shoeboxItem>
<shoeboxImageCount>2</shoeboxImageCount>
<shoeboxImages>
<name>receiptImage.jpg</name>
<name>receiptImage.jpg</name>
</shoeboxImages>
</shoeboxItem>
</payload>
</attachReceipt>
Need some xslt code snippet to do this.

I don't have the necessary software installed to actually test this, but this should work:
<xsl:template match="shoeboxImage">
<xsl:apply-templates select="*|text()"/>
</xsl:template>
The idea is that when a shoeboxImage element is encountered, it generates nothing for the element itself, and just continues with its children.

You need to have an identity template and a template that will remove the element shoeboxImage but will retain its descendants.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
version="1.0">
<xsl:strip-space elements="*"/>
<xsl:output indent="yes"/>
<!-- identity template -->
<xsl:template match="node()|#*">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:apply-templates select="node()|#*"/>
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
<!-- template override for the element shoeboxImage -->
<xsl:template match="shoeboxImage">
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

xsl:apply-templates returns nothing − what am I missing?

I have a simple XML response, like
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
<searchRetrieveResponse xmlns="http://www.loc.gov/zing/srw/">
<numberOfRecords>1</numberOfRecords>
<records>
<record>
<recordData>
<kitodo xmlns="http://meta.kitodo.org/v1/">
<metadata name="key1">value1</metadata>
<metadata name="key2">value2</metadata>
<metadata name="key3">value3</metadata>
</kitodo>
</recordData>
</record>
</records>
</searchRetrieveResponse>
which I want to transform to this by XSLT
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mets:mdWrap xmlns:kitodo="http://meta.kitodo.org/v1/"
xmlns:mets="http://www.loc.gov/METS/"
xmlns:srw="http://www.loc.gov/zing/srw/"
MDTYPE="OTHER"
OTHERMDTYPE="Kitodo">
<mets:xmlData>
<kitodo:kitodo>
<kitodo:metadata name="key1">value1</kitodo:metadata>
<kitodo:metadata name="key2">value2</kitodo:metadata>
<kitodo:metadata name="key3">value3</kitodo:metadata>
</kitodo:kitodo>
</mets:xmlData>
</mets:mdWrap>
That is, I want to remove the outside tree searchRetrieveResponse/records/record/recordData, replace it with mdWrap/xmlData and move the contained data node there.
I have a quite short XSLT for it:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="2.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:kitodo="http://meta.kitodo.org/v1/" xmlns:mets="http://www.loc.gov/METS/" xmlns:srw="http://www.loc.gov/zing/srw/">
<xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes" encoding="utf-8"/>
<xsl:strip-space elements="*"/>
<xsl:template match="srw:recordData">
<mets:mdWrap MDTYPE="OTHER" OTHERMDTYPE="Kitodo">
<mets:xmlData>
<xsl:apply-templates select="#*|node()"/>
</mets:xmlData>
</mets:mdWrap>
</xsl:template>
<!-- pass-through rule -->
<xsl:template match="#*|node()">
<xsl:apply-templates select="#*|node()"/>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
However, what I get is:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mets:mdWrap xmlns:kitodo="http://meta.kitodo.org/v1/"
xmlns:mets="http://www.loc.gov/METS/"
xmlns:srw="http://www.loc.gov/zing/srw/"
MDTYPE="OTHER"
OTHERMDTYPE="Kitodo">
<mets:xmlData/>
</mets:mdWrap>
Obviously, the template match="srw:recordData" does match, otherwise I would get an empty result. However, the contained apply-templates doesn’t output anything. (I also tried an <xsl:apply-templates/> without a select="" attribute, but it doesn’t output anything either.) What am I missing?
XSLT processor is net.sf.saxon.TransformerFactoryImpl (Java)
I think nothing happens when you are applying templates inside xmlData. There are no templates that would match descendant nodes.
Try using copy-of:
<xsl:template match="srw:recordData">
<mets:mdWrap MDTYPE="OTHER" OTHERMDTYPE="Kitodo">
<mets:xmlData>
<xsl:copy-of select="kitodo:kitodo"/>
</mets:xmlData>
</mets:mdWrap>
</xsl:template>
The problem is not with the xsl:apply-templates instruction. It is with the template being applied. Your "pass-through rule" does not write anything to the output. You probably meant to have the identity transform template in that place - which goes like this:
<xsl:template match="#*|node()">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:apply-templates select="#*|node()"/>
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>

How change a Node Position using XSLT

I have a problem with the XML Web response i am getting. The Inner Loop warehouseItems have a node leadTimeCumulative and leadTimeDays coming on the first and Second Position for the FIrst time, for the Rest its coming last. I need to keep these node always in the Last position in side the Loop.
Example
<Envelope>
<Body>
<searchItemResponse>
<status>
<statusCode>Success</statusCode>
</status>
<itemList>
<itemWithWarehouses>
<item>
<originOfData>SME</originOfData>
<itemNumbers>
<shortNumber>115632</shortNumber>
<tssArticleNumber>PT0401450-T46N</tssArticleNumber>
</item>
<warehouseItems>
<leadTimeCumulative>14</leadTimeCumulative>
<leadTimeDays>14</leadTimeDays>
<warehouse>
<code>GA01</code>
</warehouse>-
<stockItem>-
<quantities>
<quantityAvailable>0</quantityAvailable>
<quantityOnHand>0</quantityOnHand>
</quantities>
</stockItem>-
<stockClass>
<group>MTO</group>
</stockClass>
</warehouseItems>-
<warehouseItems>-
<warehouse>
<code>GL01</code>

</stockClass>
<leadTimeCumulative>10</leadTimeCumulative>
<leadTimeDays>10</leadTimeDays>
</warehouseItems>-
</itemWithWarehouses>
</itemList>
</searchItemResponse>
</Body>
</Envelope>
I need any XSLT for changing the position of the node leadTimeCumulative and leadTimeDays to the Last like the rest of the Loop Structure. Please help me.
The above part is solved.
I need an improvement along with this.The tssArticleNumber node need to copy to the respective warehouse items with a different node name like "Item No". Please give me another XSLT for this. Thanks
try the following stylesheet:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output omit-xml-declaration="yes" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:strip-space elements="*"/>
<!-- this is called an identity template -->
<xsl:template match="node()|#*">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:apply-templates select="node()|#*"/>
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
<!-- a template to override warehouseItems -->
<xsl:template match="warehouseItems">
<xsl:copy>
<!-- apply templates except leadTimeCumulative and leadTimeDays -->
<xsl:apply-templates select="node()[not(self::leadTimeCumulative) and not(self::leadTimeDays)]|#*"/>
<Item_No><xsl:value-of select="../item//tssArticleNumber"/></Item_No>
<xsl:apply-templates select="leadTimeCumulative"/>
<xsl:apply-templates select="leadTimeDays"/>
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

Adding new xml element and changing the value of an element within the same parent element

I need to make certain modifications to my XML input, depending on certain conditions. I am using XSLT 1.0.
the value of the message_type element (child element of m_cotrol) should be changed
A new element message_status should be added (as a child of the m_control element).
These changes are reflected in the expected output XML. With my current XSLT code, I am only able to achieve the second requirement.
Input XML:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<message xmlns="http://www.origoservices.com" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
<m_control>
<control_timestamp>2013-04-12T09:24:38.902</control_timestamp>

</m_content>
</message>
Expected Output:
<message xmlns="http://www.origoservices.com" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">

<quote_error_note>
<reason>[Error] Check if the User has access to the requested service</reason>
</quote_error_note>
</b_control>
</m_content>
</message>
XSLT code: Based on the value of DataPower variable (var://service/error-message), I need the expected output.

</quote_error_note>
</b_control>
</xsl:when>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
The following stylesheet meets both of your requirements. It does a common identity transform (which your XSLT does, too) with exceptions.
Note that I have not taken into consideration any changes that are performed by your stylesheet but not listed as a requirement (i.e. changing quote_error_note and quote_response_status).
This line:
<xsl:template match="text()[parent::ori:message_type]">
meets your first requirement, the one you were unable to code. It matches the text content of message_type and outputs "Response" instead.
But this solution differs from yours in another way: it does not match elements along the lines of:
<xsl:template match="//*[contains(name(),'m_control')]">
Rather, their correct namespace is identified:
<xsl:template match="ori:m_control">
Now, what's the difference? Your way of describing the template match allows elements of any namespace to be matched. This might not be a problem in your case (no conflicting namespaces) but it could be one in general.

xslt: move all siblings inside the first one

I've searched through similar questions, but couldn't make any of the suggestions to work. I have the following xml I need to modify it
<XDB>
<ROOT>
<KEY><ID>12345</ID><DATE>5/10/2011</DATE></KEY>
<PERSONAL><ID>1</ID><INFO><LASTNAME>Smith</LASTNAME>...</INFO></PERSONAL>
<CONTACT><ID>1</ID><EMAIL>asmith#yahoo.com</EMAIL>...</CONTACT>
</ROOT>
<ROOT>
<KEY><ID>98765</ID><DATE>5/10/2013</DATE></KEY>
<CONTACT><ID>2</ID><EMAIL>psmithton#yahoo.com</EMAIL>...</CONTACT>
</ROOT>
...
</XDB>
And it needs to look like this:
<XDB>
<ROOT>
<KEY><ID>12345</ID><DATE>5/10/2011</DATE>
<PERSONAL><ID>1</ID><INFO><LASTNAME>Smith</LASTNAME>...</INFO></PERSONAL>
<CONTACT><ID>1</ID><EMAIL>asmith#yahoo.com</EMAIL>...</CONTACT>
</KEY>
</ROOT>
<ROOT>
<KEY><ID>98765</ID><DATE>5/10/2013</DATE>
<CONTACT><ID>2</ID><EMAIL>psmithton#yahoo.com</EMAIL>...</CONTACT>
</KEY>
</ROOT>
...
</XDB>
I need to make 2...n siblings as children of the first 'key' sibling. Essentially, i need to remove the closing < /KEY> and put it before the closing < /ROOT>. I would appreciate your help.
Thanks.
Following xslt based on Identity transform could make this job
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output method="xml" version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" indent="yes"/>
<!-- Copy everything you find... -->
<xsl:template match="node()|#*">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:apply-templates select="node()|#*" />
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
<!-- ... but if you find first element inside ROOT ... -->
<xsl:template match="ROOT/node()[1]">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:apply-templates select="node()|#*" />
<!-- ... copy its sibling into it ... -->
<xsl:copy-of select="following-sibling::*" />
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
<!-- ignore other elements inside ROOT element since they are copied in template matching first element -->
<xsl:template match="ROOT/node()[position() > 1]" />
</xsl:stylesheet>

How to copy everything as is and only remove a specific element

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Emp:Employee xmlns:Emp="http://Emp.com">
<Emp:EmpName>XYZ</Emp:EmpName>
<Emp:EmpAddres>AAAA</Emp:EmpAddres>
<Det:EmpDetails xmlns:Det="http://Det.com">
<Det:EmpDesignation>SE</Det:EmpDesignation>
<Det:EmpExperience>4</Det:EmpExperience>
</Det:EmpDetails>
</Emp:Employee>
I am just trying to copy all the elements including the namespace but without <Det:EmpExperience>4</Det:EmpExperience>
so the final output should be :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Emp:Employee xmlns:Emp="http://Emp.com">
<Emp:EmpName>XYZ</Emp:EmpName>
<Emp:EmpAddres>AAAA</Emp:EmpAddres>
<Det:EmpDetails xmlns:Det="http://Det.com">
<Det:EmpDesignation>SE</Det:EmpDesignation>
</Det:EmpDetails>
</Emp:Employee>
I used
<xsl:template match='/'>
<xsl:copy-of select='#*[not(Det:EmpExperience)]'/>
</xsl:template>
its not working :-( ... any solution for this plz.
how to remove only <Det:EmpExperience> element and copy rest of the elements including namespace ?
Try this (adapted from here):
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:Det="http://Det.com">
<xsl:output omit-xml-declaration="yes"/>
<xsl:template match="node()|#*">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:apply-templates select="node()|#*"/>
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="Det:EmpExperience"/>
</xsl:stylesheet>
The second template overrides the identity transformation and the empty template uses your matching logic (selecting Det:EmpExperience nodes).
