I've recently been given another developer's XSL templates to
support now that she's left the team.
There are a large number of templates. Does anyone know of
any tools that could provide me with details of how all the
templates fit together (i.e. a root map) if I tell it what
the top-level template is?
Christof's software sounds good, but I can't connect to his site
at the moment.
In the meantime, here's a stylesheet that I use to help
me maintain a system with 2000+ templates.
It produces a nested, static summary XML file that lists
the includes, imports, templates and call-templates.
I run a second stylesheet with that XML file as input that creates
a set of web pages with forward and back links.
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
version="1.0">
<xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:template match="text()"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
<templates>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</templates>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="/" mode="child">
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="xsl:import">
<import name="{(_at_)href}">
<xsl:apply-templates select="document(@href)" mode="child"/>
</import>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="xsl:include">
<include name="{(_at_)href}">
<xsl:apply-templates select="document(@href)" mode="child"/>
</include>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="xsl:template">
<template>
<xsl:copy-of select="@name | @match"/>
<xsl:for-each select=".//xsl:call-template">
<calls name="{(_at_)name}"/>
</xsl:for-each>
</template>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Best Wishes,
James
