How can I convert this document:
<Root>
<!-- yes, I know I don't need a 'Root' element! Legacy code... -->
<Plans>
<Plan AreaID="1" UnitID="83">
<Part ID="9122" Name="foo" />
<Part ID="9126" Name="bar" />
</Plan>
<Plan AreaID="1" UnitID="86">
<Part ID="8650" Name="baz" />
</Plan>
<Plan AreaID="2" UnitID="26">
<Part ID="215" Name="quux" />
</Plan>
<Plan AreaID="1" UnitID="95">
<Part ID="7350" Name="meh" />
</Plan>
</Plans>
</Root>
to:
<areas>
<area id="1">
<unit id="83">
<part id="9122">foo</part>
<part id="9126">bar</part>
</unit>
<unit id="86">
<part id="8650">baz</part>
</unit>
<unit id="95">
<part id="7350">meh</part>
</unit>
</area>
<area id="2">
<unit id="26">
<part id="215">quux</part>
</unit>
</area>
</areas>
Do I need to group area elements?
Here is a sample stylesheet
<xsl:stylesheet
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
version="1.0">
<xsl:output indent="yes"/>
<xsl:strip-space elements="*"/>
<xsl:key name="k1" match="Plan" use="#AreaID"/>
<xsl:template match="Plans">
<areas>
<xsl:apply-templates select="Plan[generate-id() = generate-id(key('k1', #AreaID)[1])]" mode="group"/>
</areas>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="Plan" mode="group">
<area id="{#AreaID}">
<xsl:apply-templates select="key('k1', #AreaID)"/>
</area>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="Plan">
<unit id="{#UnitID}">
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</unit>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="Part">
<part id="{#ID}">
<xsl:value-of select="#Name"/>
</part>
</xsl:template>

I have this XML structure

I am developing below mechanism:
Interpret if the valueQuantity is deviated from the referenceRange, if yes, transform the entry
Extract the Observation node grouped by Observation/subject as separate document.
A correctly interpreted Observation and extracted document is below:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Interpretation xmlns="http://intelli.org/interpretation">
<Subject>Subject/1</Subject>
<Observations>
<id value="o1-3"/>
<subject>
<reference value="Subject/1"/>
</subject>
<valueQuantity>
<value value="400"/>
<unit value="U"/>
</valueQuantity>
<referenceRange>
<low>
<value value="0"/>
<unit value="U"/>
</low>
<high>
<value value="45"/>
<unit value="U"/>
</high>
</referenceRange></Observations></Interpretation>
My XSLT:
<!-- Interpretation Starts -->
<xsl:template match="valueQuantity">
<xsl:param name="value" as="xs:double*" select="value/#value" />
<xsl:param name="low" as="xs:double*" select="following::referenceRange[1]/low/value/#value" />
<xsl:param name="high" as="xs:double*" select="following::referenceRange[1]/high/value/#value" />
<xsl:if test="$value lt $low or $value gt $high">
<xsl:element name="Interpretation">
</xsl:element>
</xsl:if>
<!-- Interpretation Ends -->
<!-- Identity Transform -->
<xsl:copy-of select="." />
<!-- Extraction Starts: Locality? -->
<xsl:for-each select="parent::Observation">
<xsl:result-document include-content-type="no" href="/interpret&extract/deviation/{concat('interpretation/', id/#value, '.xml')}">
<xsl:copy-of select="." />
</xsl:result-document>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>
I guess (because you haven't explained it clearly) that you're trying to write all the entry/valueQuantity elements that have the same value for entry/subject/reference to the same output file. The spec doesn't allow that (for a number of reasons: the results would depend on order of execution, parallel execution would become very difficult, and the resulting XML document would have no outer wrapper element).
Instead, do a separate pass over the input to generate this output file, using something like
<xsl:for-each-group select="entry" group-by="subject/reference/#value">
<xsl:result-document href="{...}">
<wrapper>
<xsl:copy-of select="current-group()"/>
</wrapper>
</xsl:result-document>
</xsl:for-each-group>
I am completely new to xslt. Please help me to write style sheet.I have input xml like this
Input XML:
<elements>
<e1>
<pid>1</pid>
<cid>2</cid>
</e1>
<e1>
<pid>1</pid>
<cid>3</cid>
</e1>
<e1>
<pid>2</pid>
<cid>4</cid>
</e1>
</elements>
Desired XML:
<tree>
<unit id="1">
<unit id="2">
<unit id="4">
<data></data>
</unit>
<data></data>
</unit>
<unit id="3">
<data></data>
</unit>
<data></data>
</unit>
</tree>
I feel this should be really easy but I'm struggling to find information about how to do this. My XSLT knowledge isn't great.
I'm not 100% sure how you want the XSLT to determine from that input that the top id is 1 (is it because it's the only pid value with no corresponding cid values, or is it always 1?). Nonetheless, this should do the job:
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:key name="kItemsByC" match="e1" use="cid" />
<xsl:key name="kItemsByP" match="e1" use="pid" />
<xsl:template match="/">
<tree>
<xsl:call-template name="Unit">
<!-- This will be the value of the <pid> that has no <cid> references to
it (assuming there is only one top-level <pid>) -->
<xsl:with-param name="id"
select="string(/elements/e1/pid[not(key('kItemsByC', .))])" />
</xsl:call-template>
</tree>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="e1" name="Unit">
<xsl:param name="id" select="cid" />
<unit id="{$id}">
<xsl:apply-templates select="key('kItemsByP', $id)" />
<data />
</unit>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
When this is run on your sample input, this produces:
<tree>
<unit id="1">
<unit id="2">
<unit id="4">
<data />
</unit>
<data />
</unit>
<unit id="3">
<data />
</unit>
<data />
</unit>
</tree>
Note: The above XSLT has logic to attempt to dynamically locate the top-level ID. If it can be assumed that the top-level unit will always have ID 1, then one key and the above XSLT's (somewhat) complicated formula can be eliminated:
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:key name="kItemsByP" match="e1" use="pid" />
<xsl:template match="/">
<tree>
<xsl:call-template name="Unit">
<xsl:with-param name="id" select="1" />
</xsl:call-template>
</tree>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="e1" name="Unit">
<xsl:param name="id" select="cid" />
<unit id="{$id}">
<xsl:apply-templates select="key('kItemsByP', $id)" />
<data />
</unit>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
This also produces the requested output when run on your sample input.
Ah, after reading JLRishe I think I get it: "pid" means "parent ID", "cid" means "child ID", and e1 represents a parent-child relationship. Brilliant detective work, I would never have worked that out for myself.
The basic model is that when you are positioned on a parent element you do apply-templates to its children. This applies just as well if the parent/child relationships are represented by primary/foreign keys as when they are represented using the XML hierarchy. So the essence is:
<xsl:template match="e1">
<unit id="{pid}">
<xsl:apply-templates select="//e1[pid=current()/cid]"/>
<data/>
</unit>
</xsl:template>
which is essentially JLRishe's solution except he has added an optimization using keys.
I am using "Altova MapForce" mapping tool and I'm mapping node to node. The resulted xml (Using the altova xslt processor) is without nodes that are not empty. The resulted xml (Using the biztalk xslt processor, with the generated xsl from the Altova Mapforce) is with nodes that are not empty. That nodes are empty on the source.
My Goal is to connect the source node (Using Altova MapForce mapping tool) to a custom written XSLT, and then to connect it to the target.
Here is my code: in.xml - Instance input for executing the map (Please notice the empty id tag: )

<id root="root_0" extension="extension_1" />

The xslt generated by the Altova mapper looks pretty messy.
e.g. use of a one time only variable, a call template just used once, and repeated conversion like string(boolean(string(
I'm not 100% clear on what mapping you need to do in your map.
If you want to remove the root attribute entirely, and provide an id element even if it is missing, then the below xslt will work:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
xmlns:ns0="http://BizTalk_Server_Project1.Schema1"
xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
exclude-result-prefixes="ns0 xs">

<xsl:template match="/ns0:Root">
<Root xmlns="http://BizTalk_Server_Project1.Schema1">
<xsl:element name="id">
<xsl:for-each select="ns0:Root/id">
<xsl:if test="#extension">
<xsl:attribute name="extension">
<xsl:value-of select="string(#extension)"/>
</xsl:attribute>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:element>
</Root>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
This produces XML without the xmlns, extraneous schema locations, etc like so:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Root xmlns="http://BizTalk_Server_Project1.Schema1">
<id extension="extension_1" />
</Root>
If however you mean that you want to omit the id element entirely if it isn't present on the input node, then change the template as follows.
<xsl:template match="/ns0:Root">
<Root xmlns="http://BizTalk_Server_Project1.Schema1">
<xsl:if test="id">
<xsl:element name="id">
<xsl:attribute name="extension">
<xsl:value-of select="string(id/#extension)"/>
</xsl:attribute>
</xsl:element>
</xsl:if>
</Root>

Note the use of the Identity Transform, the most fundamental transformation.
Create Unique IDs and reference them in the same document
If you need to create unique ID for an element, use thegenerate-id() function. Do note that this function generates a unique identifier for a given element in the input document. Therefore if you call the function on the same element, you'll always obtain the same ID. This is really what you want.
For simplicity, in the following example transform, I've applied the templates to AddressDetails two times, each time with a different mode.
Do note the correct generation and reference of the id in the output by applying the generate-id() function on the AddressDetails node.
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output indent="yes"/>
<xsl:template match="ContactDetails">
<Application xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">

<xsl:apply-templates select="AddressDetails" mode="contact"/>

<AddressSegment>
<xsl:apply-templates select="AddressDetails" mode="segment"/>

</Application>

<xsl:template match="AddressDetails" mode="contact">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:copy-of select="#*"/>
<AddressRef ReferedID="{generate-id(.)}"/>
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="AddressDetails" mode="segment">
<Address>
<ID ID="{generate-id(.)}"/>
<xsl:copy-of select="Address/*"/>
</Address>
