apply a pipeline of XSLT transforms to source(s)
0%
Description
SourceForge user: gschadow
An alternative command line tool that makes it easier to
apply a pipeline of XSLT transforms to one or more
sources. Would be nice if the saxon command line tool
would do something like this, but then this is simple
enough to just use. I post it here for consideration to
add to the distribution and for others to just download
from here.

Fixed bug where the final transform in the chain was always a
null-transform. Hence output properties where being ignored.

Hi, I added more to the TRAXPipe idea. Thanks to Michael
breaking the gordian knot, this now allows you to send a big
document into a pipeline, split it at the second level element
and transform each sub-document separately, then join them
again at the end into one big document.
In the future I will handle directories as such a document set
and I will add a class to write multiple documents to an
output directory (instead of joining them together.)
enjoy,

I've been tempted a number of times to add this kind of
functionality to the Saxon command line, but I've resisted.
Turning the command line into a pipeline programming
language is not the right way to go. There is lots of scope
for tools like this, but architecturally I think they belong
in a layer above Saxon, not in Saxon itself.

Closing this very old entry as I don't think the idea is still active, i.e. I don't think anyone is using this or is likely to develop it.
