Xslt

This library is a light wrapper around the xsltproc tool which allows for XSLT transformations of XML documents.

Prerequesites

The library uses xsltproc to process the documents. It comes preinstalled on OSX, and can be installed simply on debian-based linux distros with apt-get install xsltproc.

The library uses porcelain to communicate safely with xsltproc, so you should install the goon binary for the best performance.

Usage

{:ok, transformed_xml} = Xslt.transform("/path/to/template.xml", "/path/to/xml_file.xml")

Using params:

{:ok, transformed_xml} = Xslt.transform("/path/to/template.xml", "/path/to/xml_file.xml", "--stringparam var_name value")
{:ok, transformed_xml} = Xslt.transform("/path/to/template.xml", "<xml>...</xml>", "--xml-as-string")

Installation

If available in Hex, the package can be installed by adding xslt to your list of dependencies in mix.exs:

def deps do
  [{:xslt, "~> 0.1.0"}]
end
