This example transforms the XML markup for countries and their capital cities into an HTML table. The example specifies the input stylesheet as a matlab.io.xml.transform.StylesheetSourceFile object.

The example uses these file:

  • capitals.xml

<Countries>
    <Country><Name>Canada</Name><Capital>Ottawa</Capital></Country>
    <Country><Name>France</Name><Capital>Paris</Capital></Country>
    <Country><Name>Peru</Name><Capital>Lima</Capital></Country>
</Countries>

  • capitals.xsl

<?xml version="1.0"?>

<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">

<xsl:template match="/">
  <html>
  <body>
      <table>
      <tr>
        <th>Country</th>
        <th>Capital</th>
      </tr>
      <xsl:for-each select="Countries/Country">
        <tr>
          <td><xsl:value-of select="Name"/></td>
          <td><xsl:value-of select="Capital"/></td>
        </tr>
      </xsl:for-each>
    </table>
  </body>
  </html>
</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

Create a StylesheetSourceFile object, stylesheetObj, that contains the path of the stylesheet to use for the transformation.

import matlab.io.xml.transform.*
stylesheetObj = StylesheetSourceFile("capitals.xsl");

Perform the transformation. Provide stylesheetObj as the stylesheet input, capitals.xml as the XML source, and capitals.html as the name of the output file.

transform(Transformer,"capitals.xml",stylesheetObj,"capitals.html");

Open capitals.html in a browser.

web("capitals.html")
