I'm new to xslt, and have a task that I'm not really sure where to go with. I want to rename nodes, but maintain the format all node declarations. In the actual context I'll be applying this to, I'll be doing a series of renames like this, but for the sake of brevity, the sample I've written up only involves renaming one node. I am using XSL 1.0.
Input:
<variables>
<var>
<RENAME> a </RENAME>
</var>
<var RENAME='b'/>
<var>
<DO_NOT_TOUCH> c </DO_NOT_TOUCH>
</var>
<var DO_NOT_TOUCH='d'/>
</variables>
Desired Output:
<variables>
<var>
<DONE> a </DONE>
</var>
<var DONE='b'/>
<var>
<DO_NOT_TOUCH> c </DO_NOT_TOUCH>
</var>
<var DO_NOT_TOUCH='d'/>
</variables>
My xslt:
<xsl:template match="RENAME">
<RENAMED>
<xsl:apply-templates select="@*|node()"/>
</RENAMED>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="@*|node()">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:apply-templates select="@*|node()"/>
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
Current Output
<variables>
<var>
<RENAMED> a </RENAMED>
</var>
<var RENAME="b">
</var>
<var>
<DO_NOT_TOUCH> c </DO_NOT_TOUCH>
</var>
<var DO_NOT_TOUCH="d">
</var>
</variables>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:template match="@* | node()">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:apply-templates select="@* | node()"/>
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="RENAME">
<DONE>
<xsl:apply-templates select="@* | node()"/>
</DONE>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="@RENAME">
<xsl:attribute name="DONE">
<xsl:value-of select="."/>
</xsl:attribute>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Output against your sample:
<variables>
<var>
<DONE> a </DONE>
</var>
<var DONE="b"></var>
<var>
<DO_NOT_TOUCH> c </DO_NOT_TOUCH>
</var>
<var DO_NOT_TOUCH="d"></var>
</variables>
