Accessing value of param in xsl - xslt

I am trying to get the value of the parameter of template named as is Round from the following code but it returns me the blank, can anybody tell me that how to get value of parameter in template
<xsl:apply-templates select="//solution">
<xsl:with-param name="isRound">N</xsl:with-param>
</xsl:apply-templates>
<xsl:template match="solution">
<xsl:param name="isRound" />
<test>
<xsl:value-of select="$isRound"/>
</test>
</xsl:template>
The Output of this is:
<test></test>

Actually this works. I try it as following. Adding other necessary things such as stylesheet root element.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:template match="/root">
<xsl:apply-templates select="//solution">
<xsl:with-param name="isRound">N</xsl:with-param>
</xsl:apply-templates>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="solution">
<xsl:param name="isRound" />
<test>
<xsl:value-of select="$isRound"/>
</test>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Input for example.
<root>
<solution/>
</root>
Result
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<test>N</test>

XMLT : replace values with values found in another xml

I have a file called ori.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<root>
<container>
<elA>
<el1>value1</el1>
<el2>value2</el2>
</elA>
<elB>
<el3>value3</el3>
<el4>value4</el4>
<el5>value5</el5>
</elB>
<elC>
<el6>value5</el6>
</elC>
</container>
</root>
and another one called modifs.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<els>
<el2>newvalue2</el2>
<el5>newvalue5</el5>
</els>
and I would like to obtain result.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<root>
<container>
<elA>
<el1>value1</el1>
<el2>newvalue2</el2>
</elA>
<elB>
<el3>value3</el3>
<el4>value4</el4>
<el5>newvalue5</el5>
</elB>
<elC>
<el6>value5</el6>
</elC>
</container>
</root>
I'm a beginner in XSLT.
So I started to write a stylesheet with which I'm able to change value2 into newvalue2:
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:param name="fileName" select="'modifs.xml'" />
<xsl:param name="modifs" select="document($fileName)" />
<xsl:param name="updateEl" >
<xsl:value-of select="$modifs/els/el2" />
</xsl:param>
<xsl:template match="#* | node()">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:apply-templates select="#* | node()"/>
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="//elA/el2">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:apply-templates select="$updateEl" />
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
But now I have to modify this stylesheet to be able to know which elements are in modifs.xml and find them in ori.xml. I don't know how to do that. Could you help please ?
I would use a key:
<xsl:key name="ref-change" match="els/*" use="local-name()"/>
<xsl:template match="*[key('ref-change', local-name(), $modifs)]">
<xsl:copy-of select="key('ref-change', local-name(), $modifs)"/>
</xsl:template>
However, using the third argument for the key function is only supported in XSLT 2 and later thus if you use an XSLT 1 processor you need to move the logic into the template, that requires using for-each to "switch" the context document
<xsl:template match="*">
<xsl:variable name="this" select="."/>
<xsl:for-each select="$modifs">
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="key('ref-change', local-name($this))">
<xsl:copy-of select="key('ref-change', local-name($this))"/>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>
<xsl:for-each select="$this">
<xsl:call-template name="identity"/>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>
Put name="identity" on your identity transformation template.

XSLT 2.0 XPATH expression with variable

I'm working on a Java based xsl-transformation (XSLT 2.0, could also be XSLT 3.0 if there is a free processor for java) with different input xml files. one input file could look like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<TEST>
<MyElement>
<CHILD>A</CHILD>
<CHILDBEZ>ABEZ</CHILDBEZ>
<NotInteresting></NotInteresting>
</MyElement>
<MyElement>
<CHILD>B</CHILD>
<CHILDBEZ>BBEZ</CHILDBEZ>
<NotInteresting2></NotInteresting2>
</MyElement>
</TEST>
I want to copy all elements but "NotInteresting" and rename the two nodes CHILD and CHILDBEZ based on two parameters that I get from a mapping file:
the xpath expression that tells me where the text of interest is placed (in this case: TEST/MyFirstElement/CHILD and TEST/MyFirstElement/CHILDBEZ)
and the names of the elements what they should have in the output file (in this case: childName and childBez)
the mapping file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<element root="TEST">
<childName>TEST/MyElement/CHILD</childName>
<childBez>TEST/MyElement/CHILDBEZ</childBez>
</element>
desired output:
<TEST>
<MyElement>
<childName>A</childName>
<childBez>ABEZ</childBez>
</MyElement>
<MyElement>
<childName>B</childName>
<childBez>BBEZ</childBez>
</MyElement>
</TEST>
what I have so far:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:transform version="2.0 "
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns="http://www.apoverlag.at"
xmlns:apo="http://www.apoverlag.at">
<xsl:variable name="vars" select="document('mapping.xml')"/>
<xsl:param name="src" />
<xsl:variable name="path" xpath-default-namespace="" select="$src/path"/> <!-- = TEST/*-->
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:for-each select="$path">
<xsl:call-template name="buildNode">
<xsl:with-param name="currentNode" select="current()"></xsl:with-param>
</xsl:call-template>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template name="buildNode">
<xsl:param name="currentNode" />
<xsl:element name="test">
<xsl:for-each select="$vars/element/#root">
<xsl:for-each select="$vars/element/*">
<xsl:element name="{name(.)}"> <xsl:value-of select="concat($currentNode,'/',current())" />
</xsl:element>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:element>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:transform>
My problem is that:
<xsl:value-of select="concat($currentNode,'/',current())" />
gives me "/TEST/MyFirstElement/CHILD" when I try it hardcoded with:
<xsl:value-of select="$currentNode/CHILD" />
I receive my desired output. Can anyone give me a hint how to solve this problem?
I would suggest a radically different approach. To simplify, I have used a mapping document with full paths (starting with the / root node):
mapping xml
<element root="TEST">
<childName>/TEST/MyElement/CHILD</childName>
<childBez>/TEST/MyElement/CHILDBEZ</childBez>
</element>
XSLT 2.0
<xsl:stylesheet version="2.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output method="xml" version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:strip-space elements="*"/>
<xsl:param name="mapping" select="document('mapping.xml')"/>
<xsl:key name="map" match="*" use="." />
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:variable name="first-pass">
<xsl:apply-templates mode="first-pass"/>
</xsl:variable>
<xsl:apply-templates select="$first-pass/*"/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="*" mode="first-pass">
<xsl:param name="parent-path"/>
<xsl:variable name="path" select="concat($parent-path, '/', name())" />
<xsl:variable name="replacement" select="key('map', $path, $mapping)" />
<xsl:element name="{if ($replacement) then name($replacement) else name()}">
<xsl:attribute name="original" select="not($replacement)"/>
<xsl:apply-templates mode="first-pass">
<xsl:with-param name="parent-path" select="$path"/>
</xsl:apply-templates>
</xsl:element>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="*">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="*[#original='true' and not(descendant::*/#original='false')]"/>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Result, when applied to the provided input:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<TEST>
<MyElement>
<childName>A</childName>
<childBez>ABEZ</childBez>
</MyElement>

Filemaker xml output via xslt with column names

I am new to xslt programming and xlm. I have created the code below this works fine, except that instead variable names for each column, it just shows "colno" How do I get the column names into the output?
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
xmlns:fmp="http://www.filemaker.com/fmpxmlresult"
exclude-result-prefixes="fmp"
>
<xsl:output method="xml" version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:variable name="kMetaData" select="fmp:METADATA/fmp:FIELD"/>
<xsl:variable name="colno"
select="count($kMetaData[following-sibling::fmp:FIELD/#NAME]) + 1" />
<xsl:template match="/fmp:FMPXMLRESULT">
<PERSON>
<xsl:apply-templates select="fmp:RESULTSET/fmp:ROW" />
</PERSON>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="fmp:ROW">
<ELEMENTS>
<xsl:apply-templates select="fmp:COL" />
</ELEMENTS>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="fmp:COL">
<xsl:element name="colno">
<xsl:value-of select="fmp:DATA" />
</xsl:element>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
It is hard to make some suggestion without input xml. But at first sight this <xsl:element name="colno"> says "output an element <colno>". I think you should use something like <xsl:element name="{xpath/to/columnName}">
edit:
According to your input xml your template for "COL" element should look like
<xsl:template match="COL">
<xsl:variable name="colPosition" select="position()" />
<!-- Prevent spaces in NAME attribute of FIELD element -->
<xsl:variable name="colName" select="translate($kMetaData[$colPosition]/#NAME, ' ', '_')" />
<xsl:element name="{$colName}">
<xsl:value-of select="DATA"/>
</xsl:element>
</xsl:template>
Then the output looks like
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<PERSON>
<ELEMENTS>
<FIRSTNAME>Richard</FIRSTNAME>
<LASTNAME>Katz</LASTNAME>
<MIDDLENAME>David</MIDDLENAME>
<REQUESTDT>1/1/2001</REQUESTDT>
<salutation>Mr</salutation>
<Bargaining_Unit>CSEA (02,03,04)</Bargaining_Unit>
<Field_134>b</Field_134>
</ELEMENTS>
</PERSON>

What to create? a function or template or?

I've the following problem see the code example:
<xsl:if test="/Document/test/id">
<TEST1>
<xsl:value-of select="/Document/test/id"/>
</TEST1>
</xsl:if>
I've a huge xslt script with a lot of same code. I wanted to create a function but I got all the time errors. I was asking myself if that is the right solution to solve this problem.
To make the code better maintainable I want to use something like the following.
This is not xslt syntax because I don't know how, but to give an idea what I'm looking for.
...
<xsl:something "TEST1", "/Document/test/id1" />
<xsl:something "TEST2", "/Document/test/id2" />
...
The code would be better readable and maintainable, although I don't know how to solve this :-(
Any advise is welcome...
Regards Dirk
This transformation:
<xsl:stylesheet version="2.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
xmlns:my="my:my" xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
<xsl:output omit-xml-declaration="yes" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:variable name="vDoc" select="/"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:sequence select="my:test(xs:QName('Test1'), /*/test/id1/string())"/>
<xsl:sequence select="my:test(xs:QName('Test2'), /*/test/id2/string())"/>
<xsl:sequence select="my:test(xs:QName('Test3'), /*/test/id3/string())"/>
<xsl:sequence select="my:test(xs:QName('Test4'), /*/test/id4/string())"/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:function name="my:test">
<xsl:param name="pName" as="xs:QName"/>
<xsl:param name="pToPresent" as="item()?"/>
<xsl:if test="$pToPresent">
<xsl:element name="{$pName}">
<xsl:sequence select="$pToPresent"/>
</xsl:element>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:function>
</xsl:stylesheet>
When applied on the following XML document:
<Document>
<test>
<id1>Some Id1</id1>
</test>
<test>
<id2>Some Id2</id2>
</test>
<test>
<id4>Some Id4</id4>
</test>
</Document>
the wanted, correct result is produced:
<Test1>Some Id1</Test1>
<Test2>Some Id2</Test2>
<Test4>Some Id4</Test4>
Do note:
The first argument of my:test() is declared of type xs:QName, which guarantees that the value of the name attribute of the xsl:element instruction is always a valid name.
The second argument of my:test() is declared very loosely of type item()?, which gives us the freedom to provide any type of item (string or node or element, or ...) and that exactly what is provided would be reproduced "as is".
I think this is the closest to what you are going for:
<xsl:stylesheet version="2.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
xmlns:f="custom-functions" xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
<xsl:output omit-xml-declaration="yes" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
<CONTENT>
<xsl:sequence select="f:rename('TEST1', /Document/test/id1)"/>
<xsl:sequence select="f:rename('TEST2', /Document/test/id2)"/>
</CONTENT>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:function name="f:rename">
<xsl:param name="name" as="xs:string"/>
<xsl:param name="toWrap" />
<xsl:if test="$toWrap">
<xsl:element name="{$name}">
<xsl:value-of select="$toWrap"/>
</xsl:element>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:function>
</xsl:stylesheet>
When this is run on the following input:
<Document>
<test>
<id1>Hello!</id1>
<id2>Hello again!</id2>
</test>
</Document>
The output produced is:
<CONTENT>
<TEST1>Hello!</TEST1>
<TEST2>Hello again!</TEST2>
</CONTENT>
You could also try this, which is a little more verbose, but XSLT 1.0 compatible:
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output omit-xml-declaration="yes" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
<CONTENT>
<xsl:apply-templates select="/Document/test/id1" mode="rename">
<xsl:with-param name="name" select="'TEST1'" />
</xsl:apply-templates>
<xsl:apply-templates select="/Document/test/id2" mode="rename">
<xsl:with-param name="name" select="'TEST2'" />
</xsl:apply-templates>
</CONTENT>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="#* | node()" mode="rename">
<xsl:param name="name" />
<xsl:element name="{$name}">
<xsl:value-of select="." />
</xsl:element>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
When run on the above sample XML, again the same output is produced.

XSLT: How to reverse output without sorting by content

I have a list of items:
<item>a</item>
<item>x</item>
<item>c</item>
<item>z</item>
and I want as output
z
c
x
a
I have no order information in the file and I just want to reverse the lines. The last line in the source file should be first line in the output. How can I solve this problem with XSLT without sorting by the content of the items, which would give the wrong result?
I will present two XSLT solutions:
I. XSLT 1.0 with recursion Note that this solution works for any node-set, not only in the case when the nodes are siblings:
This transformation:
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output omit-xml-declaration="yes" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:template match="/*">
<xsl:call-template name="reverse">
<xsl:with-param name="pList" select="*"/>
</xsl:call-template>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template name="reverse">
<xsl:param name="pList"/>
<xsl:if test="$pList">
<xsl:value-of
select="concat($pList[last()], '
')"/>
<xsl:call-template name="reverse">
<xsl:with-param name="pList"
select="$pList[not(position() = last())]"/>
</xsl:call-template>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
when applied on this XML document:
<t>
<item>a</item>
<item>x</item>
<item>c</item>
<item>z</item>
</t>
produces the wanted result:
z
c
x
a
II. XSLT 2.0 solution :
<xsl:stylesheet version="2.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
<xsl:output method="text"/>
<xsl:template match="/*">
<xsl:value-of select="reverse(*)/string(.)"
separator="
"/>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
When this transformation is applied on the same XML document, the same correct result is produced.
XML CODE:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<!-- Edited by XMLSpy® -->
<device>
<element>a</element>
<element>x</element>
<element>c</element>
<element>z</element>
</device>
XSLT CODE:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<!-- Edited by XMLSpy® -->
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:template match="//device">
<xsl:for-each select="element">
<xsl:sort select="position()" data-type="number" order="descending"/>
<xsl:text> </xsl:text>
<xsl:value-of select="."/>
<xsl:text> </xsl:text>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>
note: if you're using data-type="number", and any of the values aren't numbers, those non-numeric values will sort before the numeric values. That means if you're using order="ascending", the non-numeric values appear first; if you use order="descending", the non-numeric values appear last.
Notice that the non-numeric values were not sorted; they simply appear in the output document in the order in which they were encountered.
also, you may find usefull to read this:
http://docstore.mik.ua/orelly/xml/xslt/ch06_01.htm
Not sure what the full XML looks like, so I wrapped in a <doc> element to make it well formed:
<doc>
<item>a</item>
<item>x</item>
<item>c</item>
<item>z</item>
</doc>
Running that example XML against this stylesheet:
<?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" encoding="UTF-8" omit-xml-declaration="yes"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:call-template name="reverse">
<xsl:with-param name="item" select="doc/item[position()=last()]" />
</xsl:call-template>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template name="reverse">
<xsl:param name="item" />
<xsl:value-of select="$item" />
<!--Adds a line feed-->
<xsl:text>
</xsl:text>
<!--Move on to the next item, if we aren't at the first-->
<xsl:if test="$item/preceding-sibling::item">
<xsl:call-template name="reverse">
<xsl:with-param name="item" select="$item/preceding-sibling::item[1]" />
</xsl:call-template>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Produces the requested output:
z
c
x
a
You may need to adjust the xpath to match your actual XML.
Consider this XML input:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<items>
<item>a</item>
<item>x</item>
<item>c</item>
<item>z</item>
</items>
The XSLT:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output method="text" />
<xsl:template match="/items[1]">
<xsl:variable name="items-list" select="." />
<xsl:variable name="items-count" select="count($items-list/*)" />
<xsl:for-each select="item">
<xsl:variable name="index" select="$items-count+1 - position()"/>
<xsl:value-of select="$items-list/item[$index]"/>
<xsl:value-of select="'
'"/>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
And the result:
z
c
x
a
