Import

 use XML::Saxon::XSLT2;

You can include additional parameters which will be passed straight on to Inline::Java, like this:

 use XML::Saxon::XSLT2 EXTRA_JAVA_ARGS => '-Xmx256m';

The "import" function must be called. If you load this module without importing it, it will not work. (Don't worry, it won't pollute your namespace.)

Constructor

"XML::Saxon::XSLT2->new($xslt, [$baseurl])"

Creates a new transformation. $xslt may be a string, a file handle or an XML::LibXML::Document. $baseurl is an optional base URL for resolving relative URL references in, for instance, <xsl:import> links. Otherwise, the current directory is assumed to be the base. (For base URIs which are filesystem directories, remember to include the trailing slash.)

Methods

"$trans->parameters($key=>$value, $key2=>$value2, ...)"

Sets transformation parameters prior to running the transformation.

Each key is a parameter name.

Each value is the parameter value. This may be a scalar, in which case it's treated as an xs:string; a DateTime object, which is treated as an xs:dateTime; a URI object, xs:anyURI; a Math::BigInt, xs:long; or an arrayref where the first element is the type and the second the value. For example:

 $trans->parameters(
    now             => DateTime->now,
    madrid_is_capital_of_spain => [ boolean => 1 ],
    price_of_fish   => [ decimal => '1.99' ],
    my_link         => URI->new('http://example.com/'),
    your_link       => [ uri => 'http://example.net/' ],
 );
    

The following types are supported via the arrayref notation: float, double, long (alias int, integer), decimal, bool (alias boolean), string, qname, uri, date, datetime. These are case-insensitive.

"$trans->transform($doc, [$output_method])"

Run a transformation, returning the output as a string.

$doc may be a string, a file handle or an XML::LibXML::Document.

$output_method may be 'xml', 'xhtml', 'html' or 'text' to override the XSLT output method; or 'default' to use the output method specified in the XSLT file. 'default' is the default. In the current release, 'default' is broken. :-(

"$trans->transform_document($doc, [$output_method])"

As per <transform>, but returns the output as an XML::LibXML::Document.

This method is slower than "transform".

"$trans->messages"

Returns a list of string representations of messages output by <xsl:message> during the last transformation run.

"$trans->media_type($default)"

Returns the output media type for the transformation.

If the transformation doesn't specify an output type, returns the default.

"$trans->doctype_public($default)"

Returns the output DOCTYPE public identifier for the transformation.

If the transformation doesn't specify a doctype, returns the default.

"$trans->doctype_system($default)"

Returns the output DOCTYPE system identifier for the transformation.

If the transformation doesn't specify a doctype, returns the default.

"$trans->version($default)"

Returns the output XML version for the transformation.

If the transformation doesn't specify a version, returns the default.

"$trans->encoding($default)"

Returns the output encoding for the transformation.

If the transformation doesn't specify an encoding, returns the default.
