I have next xml:
<page>
<document>
<id>1001</id>
<cur>USD</cur>
<date>01.01.2009</date>
<amount>10</amount>
</document>
<document>
<id>1001</id>
<cur>USD</cur>
<date>02.01.2009</date>
<amount>15</amount>
</document>
<document>
<id>1001</id>
<cur>JPY</cur>
<date>01.01.2009</date>
<amount>5</amount>
</document>
<document>
<id>1002</id>
<cur>USD</cur>
<date>01.01.2009</date>
<amount>5</amount>
</document>
...
</page>
And I need to transform it into html. Records should be grouped by id and cur. And after each group total amount should be shown. So we want something like this:
Bill: id=1001, cur=USD
date=01.01.2009 amount=10
date=02.01.2009 amount=15
total amount=25
Bill: id=1001, cur=JPY
date=01.01.2009 amount=5
total amount=5
Bill: id=1002, cur=USD
date=01.01.2009 amount=5
total amount=5
...
How can I achieve this using XSL?
When I tried to find answer in google I found Muenchian method, but it's too complicated when we want to group result by 2 fields. I'm beginner in xsl and it's a bit difficult to me.
I also found xslt 2.0 operator for-each-group. Is it supported by major browsers? Is it normally to use it or we should only rely on xslt 1.0?
You can do this with XSLT 1.0
The method i use here is to create a composite key with the two fields, id and cur. I later apply the templates to the first document in each group. Within the template i then loop through the individual documents and finally i summarize the documents amount field.
<?xml version='1.0'?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:key name="idcur" match="document" use="concat(id,cur)"/>
<xsl:template match="/page">
<xsl:apply-templates select="document[generate-id() = generate-id(key('idcur',concat(id,cur))[1])]"/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="document">
<xsl:variable name="document" select="key('idcur',concat(id,cur))"/>
Bill: id=<xsl:value-of select="id"/>, cur=<xsl:value-of select="cur"/>
<xsl:for-each select="$document">
date=<xsl:value-of select="date"/> amount=<xsl:value-of select="amount"/>
</xsl:for-each>
total amount=<xsl:value-of select="sum($document/amount)"/>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Output:
Bill: id=1001, cur=USD
date=01.01.2009 amount=10
date=02.01.2009 amount=15
total amount=25
Bill: id=1001, cur=JPY
date=01.01.2009 amount=5
total amount=5
Bill: id=1002, cur=USD
date=01.01.2009 amount=5
total amount=5
Concatening two fields to create a composite key is not safe, unless you are absolutely sure all such created keys are uniques.
This method is safer, I think:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output method="text"/>
<xsl:key name="ids" match="document" use="id"/>
<xsl:key name="currencies" match="document" use="cur"/>
<xsl:template match="/page">
<xsl:apply-templates select="document[generate-id() = generate-id(key('ids',id)[1])]"/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="document">
<xsl:for-each select="key('ids',id)[generate-id() = generate-id(key('currencies', cur)[id=current()/id][1])]">
<xsl:variable name="bills" select="key('ids', id)[cur = current()/cur]"/>
<xsl:text>Bill: id=</xsl:text>
<xsl:value-of select="id"/>
<xsl:text>, cur=</xsl:text>
<xsl:value-of select="cur"/>
<xsl:for-each select="$bills">
<xsl:text> date=</xsl:text>
<xsl:value-of select="date"/>
<xsl:text> amount=</xsl:text>
<xsl:value-of select="amount"/>
</xsl:for-each>
<xsl:text> total amount=</xsl:text>
<xsl:value-of select="sum($bills/amount)"/>
<xsl:text> </xsl:text>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
