XSLT copy by attribute










0















I have a problem. Cant get to copy only node with specific attribute in XSLT. My XML;



<root>
<mouse code="red"> .. </mouse>
<mouse code="blue"> .. </mouse>
<mouse code="green"> .. </mouse>
</root>


I am trying to copy only node with red attribute to get XML like this:



<root>
<mouse code="red"> .. </mouse>
</root>


Can this be done with simple XSLT transformation?

  • Your "XML" is not well-formed.

  • No,code=red is not "corrected". Why does it matter? Because I had to correct it in order to test.

You can do simply:



<xsl:template match="/root">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:copy-of select="mouse[@code='red']"/>
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>

    This can be done simply with xsl:templates matching the node you want and using copy/copy-of.



    <xsl:template match="/">
    <xsl:apply-templates/>
    </xsl:template>

    <xsl:template match="root">
    <xsl:copy>
    <xsl:apply-templates/>
    </xsl:copy>
    </xsl:template>

    <xsl:template match="mouse[@code='red']">
    <xsl:copy>
    <xsl:copy-of select="@*"/>
    <xsl:apply-templates/>
    </xsl:copy>
    </xsl:template>


    Of course, if there are other elements within mouse[@code='red'] then you'll need to handle them with another template.

      This is not a good idea, because you are applying templates to all mouse nodes - and the built-in template rules will process them and write their text content to the output - see: xsltransform.hikmatu.com/94hvTyJ
