</ul><p>The libxslt Python module depends on the <a href="http://xmlsoft.org/python.html">libxml2 Python</a> module.</p><p>The distribution includes a set of Python bindings, which are guaranteed to
be maintained as part of the library in the future, though the Python
interface have not yet reached the completeness of the C API.</p><p><a href="mailto:stephane.bidoul@softwareag.com">St�phane Bidoul</a>
maintains <a href="http://users.skynet.be/sbi/libxml-python/">a Windows port
of the Python bindings</a>.</p><p>Note to people interested in building bindings, the API is formalized as
<a href="libxslt-api.xml">an XML API description file</a> which allows to
automate a large part of the Python bindings, this includes function
descriptions, enums, structures, typedefs, etc... The Python script used to
build the bindings is python/generator.py in the source distribution.</p><p>To install the Python bindings there are 2 options:</p><ul>
  <li>If you use an RPM based distribution, simply install the <a href="http://rpmfind.net/linux/rpm2html/search.php?query=libxml2-python">libxml2-python
    RPM</a> and the <a href="http://rpmfind.net/linux/rpm2html/search.php?query=libxslt-python">libxslt-python
    RPM</a>.</li>
  <li>Otherwise use the <a href="ftp://xmlsoft.org/libxml2/python/">libxml2-python
    module distribution</a> corresponding to your installed version of
    libxml2 and libxslt. Note that to install it you will need both libxml2
    and libxslt installed and run "python setup.py build install" in the
    module tree.</li>
</ul><p>The distribution includes a set of examples and regression tests for the
python bindings in the <code>python/tests</code> directory. Here are some
excepts from those tests:</p><h3>basic.py:</h3><p>This is a basic test of XSLT interfaces: loading a stylesheet and a
document, transforming the document and saving the result.</p><pre>import libxml2
import libxslt

styledoc = libxml2.parseFile("test.xsl")
style = libxslt.parseStylesheetDoc(styledoc)
doc = libxml2.parseFile("test.xml")
result = style.applyStylesheet(doc, None)
style.saveResultToFilename("foo", result, 0)
style.freeStylesheet()
doc.freeDoc()
result.freeDoc()</pre><p>The Python module is called libxslt, you will also need the libxml2 module
for the operations on XML trees. Let's have a look at the objects manipulated
in that example and how is the processing done:</p><ul>
  <li><code>styledoc</code> : is a libxml2 document tree. It is obtained by
    parsing the XML file "test.xsl" containing the stylesheet.</li>
  <li><code>style</code> : this is a precompiled stylesheet ready to be used
    by the following transformations (note the plural form, multiple
    transformations can resuse the same stylesheet).</li>
  <li><code>doc</code> : this is the document to apply the transformation to.
    In this case it is simply generated by parsing it from a file but any
    other processing is possible as long as one get a libxml2 Doc. Note that
    HTML tree are suitable for XSLT processing in libxslt. This is actually
    how this page is generated !</li>
  <li><code>result</code> : this is a document generated by applying the
    stylesheet to the document. Note that some of the stylesheet information
    may be related to the serialization of that document and as in this
    example a specific saveResultToFilename() method of the stylesheet should
    be used to save it to a file (in that case to "foo").</li>
</ul><p>Also note the need to explicitely deallocate documents with freeDoc()
except for the stylesheet document which is freed when its compiled form is
garbage collected.</p><h3>extfunc.py:</h3><p>This one is a far more complex test. It shows how to modify the behaviour
of an XSLT transformation by passing parameters and how to extend the XSLT
engine with functions defined in python:</p><pre>import libxml2
import libxslt
import string

nodeName = None
def f(ctx, str):
    global nodeName

    #
    # Small check to verify the context is correcly accessed
    #
    try:
        pctxt = libxslt.xpathParserContext(_obj=ctx)
        ctxt = pctxt.context()
        tctxt = ctxt.transformContext()
        nodeName = tctxt.insertNode().name
    except:
        pass

    return string.upper(str)

libxslt.registerExtModuleFunction("foo", "http://example.com/foo", f)</pre><p>This code defines and register an extension function. Note that the
function can be bound to any name (foo) and how the binding is also
associated to a namespace name "http://example.com/foo". From an XSLT point
of view the function just returns an upper case version of the string passed
as a parameter. But the first part of the function also read some contextual
information from the current XSLT processing environement, in that case it
looks for the current insertion node in the resulting output (either the
resulting document or the Result Value Tree being generated), and saves it to
a global variable for checking that the access actually worked.</p><p>For more information on the xpathParserContext and transformContext
objects check the <a href="internals.html">libray internals description</a>.
The pctxt is actually an object from a class derived from the
libxml2.xpathParserContext() with just a couple more properties including the
possibility to look up the XSLT transformation context from the XPath
context.</p><pre>styledoc = libxml2.parseDoc("""
&lt;xsl:stylesheet version='1.0'
  xmlns:xsl='http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform'
  xmlns:foo='http://example.com/foo'
  xsl:exclude-result-prefixes='foo'&gt;

  &lt;xsl:param name='bar'&gt;failure&lt;/xsl:param&gt;
  &lt;xsl:template match='/'&gt;
    &lt;article&gt;&lt;xsl:value-of select='foo:foo($bar)'/&gt;&lt;/article&gt;
  &lt;/xsl:template&gt;
&lt;/xsl:stylesheet&gt;
""")</pre><p>Here is a simple example of how to read an XML document from a python
string with libxml2. Note how this stylesheet:</p><ul>
  <li>Uses a global parameter <code>bar</code></li>
  <li>Reference the extension function f</li>
  <li>how the Namespace name "http://example.com/foo" has to be bound to a
    prefix</li>
  <li>how that prefix is excluded from the output</li>
  <li>how the function is called from the select</li>
</ul><pre>style = libxslt.parseStylesheetDoc(styledoc)
doc = libxml2.parseDoc("&lt;doc/&gt;")
result = style.applyStylesheet(doc, { "bar": "'success'" })
style.freeStylesheet()
doc.freeDoc()</pre><p>that part is identical, to the basic example except that the
transformation is passed a dictionary of parameters. Note that the string
passed "success" had to be quoted, otherwise it is interpreted as an XPath
query for the childs of root named "success".</p><pre>root = result.children
if root.name != "article":
    print "Unexpected root node name"
    sys.exit(1)
if root.content != "SUCCESS":
    print "Unexpected root node content, extension function failed"
    sys.exit(1)
if nodeName != 'article':
    print "The function callback failed to access its context"
    sys.exit(1)

result.freeDoc()</pre><p>That part just verifies that the transformation worked, that the parameter
got properly passed to the engine, that the function f() got called and that
it properly accessed the context to find the name of the insertion node.</p><h3>pyxsltproc.py:</h3><p>this module is a bit too long to be described there but it is basically a
rewrite of the xsltproc command line interface of libxslt in Python. It
provides nearly all the functionalities of xsltproc and can be used as a base
module to write Python customized XSLT processors. One of the thing to notice
are:</p><pre>libxml2.lineNumbersDefault(1)
libxml2.substituteEntitiesDefault(1)</pre><p>those two calls in the main() function are needed to force the libxml2
processor to generate DOM trees compliant with the XPath data model.</p><p><a href="bugs.html">Daniel Veillard</a></p></td></tr></table></td></tr></table></td></tr></table></td></tr></table></td></tr></table></body></html>
