PhoenixmlDb.Xslt

XSLT 4.0 transformation engine for PhoenixmlDb — transform XML documents into HTML, JSON, CSV, text, or other XML formats.

Features

  • XSLT 3.0/4.0 — template matching, streaming, accumulators, packages, maps/arrays
  • All output methods — HTML5, XML, XHTML, JSON, text, CSV, adaptive
  • Multiple outputsxsl:result-document for multi-file generation
  • Full XPath 4.0 — 240+ built-in functions available in all expressions
  • Packages — reusable stylesheet libraries with visibility control

Quick example

using PhoenixmlDb.Xslt;

var transformer = new XsltTransformer();
await transformer.LoadStylesheetAsync(
    File.ReadAllText("style.xsl"),
    new Uri(Path.GetFullPath("style.xsl")));

transformer.SetParameter("title", "My Report");
var html = await transformer.TransformAsync(
    File.ReadAllText("data.xml"));

// Handle secondary outputs (xsl:result-document)
foreach (var (href, content) in transformer.SecondaryResultDocuments)
    File.WriteAllText(Path.Combine(outputDir, href), content);

See the full API overview in the README.

### Fixes

- **A typed global `xsl:variable`/`xsl:param` with an optional type (`as="xs:T?"` / `as="xs:T*"`) whose sequence-constructor body executes but produces nothing now binds the empty sequence, not the empty string.** A body such as `<xsl:if test="…">` that does not fire, or `<xsl:for-each select="()">`, produced no content; for a type that permits the empty sequence the value must be `()`. The engine bound `""`, so a later value comparison atomized the variable as `xs:string` and raised a spurious `XPTY0004` (e.g. `$v lt 65536`). Both the eager and the lazily-initialized global-binding paths are corrected; the local-variable path already behaved correctly. Reported by Martin Honnen (XSpec `version-utils.xsl` `x:saxon-version`, which is empty for a non-Saxon processor). Requires the companion PhoenixmlDb.XQuery release for full XPath 3.1 §3.7.1 empty-operand comparison semantics, but this fix alone resolves the reported error.

- **A single-step `node()` kind-test pattern with a predicate (e.g. `match="node()[self::x]"`) now evaluates the predicate instead of matching on node kind alone.** The engine short-circuited on node kind for `node()`, silently dropping any predicate, so `node()[pred]` behaved like bare `node()` — matching nodes the predicate should reject and, at higher priority, pre-empting more specific template rules. Now mirrors the (already-correct) `root()` pattern handling. Reported by Martin Honnen (XSpec `gather-specs.xsl`, `match="node()[x:is-user-content(.)]"`). The sibling `document-node()[pred]` / `document-node(element(E))[pred]` forms had the same predicate-dropping short-circuit and are fixed alongside it. No effect on bare `node()`/`document-node()` or on `element()`/`attribute()`/name-test patterns.

### Packaging

- Exception stack traces from shipped assemblies no longer embed the absolute build-machine path (a `PathMap` maps the repo root to a repo-relative prefix, so a frame reads `phoenixmldb-xslt/src/…` instead of a local filesystem path). Line numbers are preserved. Release builds only.
