2017-06-01Adapt `FunctionExternalCommand` to new `boost::process` versionAdrian Kummerlaender
2016-01-05Fix `generate` problem caused by _boost_ updateAdrian Kummerlaender
i.e. the directory tree was not correctly created in all circumstances which led to both the `generate` and `write-file` test cases failing. This was combined with some accumulated changes such as the extraction of process context instantiation.
2014-11-13Replaced custom `Sequence` implementation with C++14 `std::integer_sequence`Adrian Kummerlaender
* both the `Sequence` and `IndexSequence` helper templates were developed prior to C++14 * as the new standard covers exactly the functionality provided by these templates they should be replaced ** they are used as indexes to the _Xalan_ parameter array in `FunctionBase`
2014-11-09Removed unnecessary `inline` declarationsAdrian Kummerlaender
* e.g. member functions defined in the class definition are implicitly marked `inline`
2014-10-29Activated namespace comprehension for all `XercesDOMParser` instancesAdrian Kummerlaender
* this is possibly a breaking change for all applications built on either `FunctionExternalCommand` or `FunctionReadFile` ** e.g. meta datasource XPath queries in _StaticXSLT_ will have to be changed to accomodate this * the reason for doing this was to fix the behaviour when reading namespaced XML files ** e.g. XSL stylesheets could only be queried with a clunky XPath expression such as `$transformation/self::*[name() = 'xsl:stylesheet']` instead of simply `$transformation/self::xsl:stylesheet` *** this was caused by the now activated namespace comprehension in `xercesc::XercesDOMParser` which is disabled by default *** it caused all local node names to be converted into their namespace prefixed version, e.g. `local-name()` returned `xsl:stylesheet` instead of `stylesheet`
2014-10-26Fixed XML declaration handling in FunctionExternalCommandAdrian Kummerlaender
* `FunctionExternalCommand` failed to offer correct output handling when provided with a valid XML document which included a XML declaration ** `xerces::XercesDOMParser` generated the appropriate errors but they were not handled by `FunctionExternalCommand` ** wrapping is not necessary for full XML documents but is required for invalid XML as returned by e.g. common _Markdown_ processors *** if wrapping is applied to full XML documents which include a XML declaration the parser and subsequently the complete external function fails * added error parser handling by making the compilation unit local `importDocumentElement` method return value optional * added XML declaration detection and handling to `readOutput` ** if XML declaration is detected no wrapping is applied * added wrapping detection in `FunctionExternalCommand::constructDocument` ** if no wrapping is detected the whole tree is returned as content instead of just returning its child nodes
2014-10-16Changed FunctionExternalCommand stream read orderAdrian Kummerlaender
* long outputs to stdout from child processes filled up the `boost::process::pistream` buffer and caused `write` to block ** this issue was circumvented by reading the stream into a `std::stringstream` instance before retrieving the blocking exit status * modified document import implementation accordingly
2014-10-11Split path attribute of FunctionReadFile result tree into base and nameAdrian Kummerlaender
* this is required to be able to resolve paths contained within a file relative to its location ** which is in turn needed to enable BuildXSLT modules without requiring the module transformations to be resolved using IncludeEntityResolver
2014-10-11Changed FunctionBase FilesystemContext base to working directoryAdrian Kummerlaender
* this changes filesystem context resolution for external function execution to be relative to the working directory ** this was changed to enable module support in BuildXSLT *** ... which is in turn required as a foundation for extracting the detail transformations into a separate "StaticXSLT" application * added parameter-less FilesystemContext constructor which defaults to the working directory
2014-08-23Replaced FunctionTransform by making the target of FunctionGenerate optionalAdrian Kummerlaender
* if the target parameter is not provided FunctionGenerate now performs exactly the same functionality as FunctionTransform * added "boost::optional<boost::filesystem::path>" specialization to the XObjectValue class * modified test cases accordingly * modified README.md accordingly
2014-08-20Setting the correct work directory in FunctionExternalCommandAdrian Kummerlaender
* changed the XObjectValue constructor to accept a pointer to FilesystemContext instead of instantiating the context by itself * the FilesystemContext is now instantiated in the "callConstructDocument" member method of "FunctionBase" ** a const reference to FilesystemContext is passed to all "constructDocument" member method implementations * the FilesystemContext is currently only used by FunctionExternal command to set the correct work directory in "boost::process::context" ** this is required so calling external commands from inside a stylesheet works as expected *** i.e. from inside the directory the stylesheet is located in * modified all remaining external function implementations accordingly
2014-08-18Renamed FunctionExternalCommand result root nodeAdrian Kummerlaender
* this change was implemented to match the naming scheme of all other external functions * updated external text formatter test case accordingly
2014-08-17Fixed minimum parameter count calculationAdrian Kummerlaender
* the minimum count of parameters to a external function is the maximum parameter count minus all optional parameters * updated error message of "FunctionBase" member method "getError" to reflect the newly implemented possibility of optional parameters
2014-08-16Implemented primitive optional parameter support for external functionsAdrian Kummerlaender
* renamed FunctionExternalTextFormatter into FunctionExternalCommand ** the goal is to provide a general interface to a variety of external commands *** e.g. not just text formatters but system utilities for file management and so on ** this requires the stdin parameter to be optional as not all external commands require stdin input * implemented "filter_derived" helper template to determine amount of optional parameters ** optional parameters are defined as "boost::optional" specializations *** they in turn can be detected by checking if "boost::optional_detail::optional_tag" is a base class * "callConstructDocument" member method of "FunctionBase" performs additional bounds checking of parameter vector * "boost::optional<std::string>" specific member overload was added to "XObjectValue" helper class ** we will have to provide full specializations for all optional types as C++ prohibits partial member function template specialization * renamed the external function in "PlattformGuard" * changed README.md and test cases accordingly
2014-08-09Changed FunctionExternalTextFormatter to execute formatter inside shellAdrian Kummerlaender
* otherwise one has to pass the full path to the command ** additionally it is much easier to enable passing arguments to the external formatter this way * modified external function parameter accordingly * updated external text formatter test case
2014-07-23Added directory creation to FunctionGenerate and FunctionWriteFileAdrian Kummerlaender
* i.e. they now create the directory tree required to contain their respective output files automatically * this is needed so TestXSLT is able to create the target directory implicitly
2014-07-12Implemented external "generate" functionAdrian Kummerlaender
* this function essentially provides the same functionality as FunctionTransform with the addition of directly committing the result to the filesystem ** this is needed if one wants to generate doctype-containing transformations from inside a transformation as "write-file" is not able to infer the doctype of a given xalan::XalanNode pointer ** this is a integral limitation of (at least) XSLT 1.0 as implemented in Apache Xalan *** a document can of course only have a single document type *** e.g. we can not include a doctype node in the result tree of FunctionTransform * implemented test case for FunctionGenerate * transformation "test.xsl" is shared between the FunctionTransform and FunctionGenerate test cases * modified README.md accordingly
2014-07-12Marked constructDocument member methods as constAdrian Kummerlaender
* they don't modifiy the class state so there is no reason for them not being marked as const ** all calling methods are also const ** this enables us to remove the const_cast in FunctionBase * modified external function implementations accordingly * inlined handleError method in FunctionTransform as it is not needed in multiple places anymore
2014-07-09Added DomDocumentCache::createDocument overload enabling document namingAdrian Kummerlaender
* previous createDocument method used default name "content" ** this led to problems when using xalan::XalanNode as transformation input ** the parameter-less createDocument overload now creates a unnamed xercesc::DOMDocument * changed external function implementations accordingly
2014-07-08Added ResultNodeFacade constructor overload for root nodesAdrian Kummerlaender
* the common use case of ResultNodeFacade inside external function implementations is managing the result root node ** this root node can be fetched through the xercesc::DOMDocument instance ** the new alias overload automatically fetches the root node pointer and as such doesn't require a root node parameter * changed external function implementations accordingly
2014-07-07Implemented custom xercesc::DOMDocument deleterAdrian Kummerlaender
* pointers to xercesc::DOMDocument were manually released ** this is now solved using a custom deleter for the appropriate std::unqiue_ptr template specialization * added matching factory method to DomDocumentCache * updated external function implementations accordingly ** "constructDocument" is now expected to return a DomDocumentCache::document_ptr instance * updated TransformerFacade accordingly * this change was implemented to get rid of the manual memory management required by xalan / xerces
2014-07-05Revamped implementation to support FunctionTransform XalanNode inputAdrian Kummerlaender
* FunctionTransform now accepts xalan::XalanNode base xalan::XSLTInputSource instances as input parameter ** such xalan::XSLTInputSource instances were already supported for the stylesheet parameter but not for the input parameter ** e.g. it is now possible to generate a DOM inside a transformation, pass the DOM into a embedded transformation as input, modifiy the output of that transformation, pass this modified DOM into another transformation and so on... you get the point * this required a revamp of TransformationFacade ** it is now a transformation independent wrapper for xalan::XalanTransformer *** as such is was renamed to TransformerFacade ** removed error catching template factory method "try_create" as it is not needed anymore ** "std::basic_ostream<char>&" taking "generate" member method overloads were removed ** the set of "generate" member overloads was reduced to two methods accepting xalan::XSLTInputSource and xalan::FormatterListener as parameters * the core problem first documented in 299d0f6 was solved by transforming the input parameter into a xerces DOM and wrapping this DOM inside a xalan::XercesDOMWrapperParsedSource instance * serialization of the transformation result for file / std::cout output is now performed directly by the ixslt frontend * removed 'stylesheet parameter' parameter from FunctionTransform ** the functionality provided by this is easily replicated using the now possible DOM input parameter ** this was done to simplify the interface and reduce unnecessary feature duplication * updated FunctionTransform test case accordingly * added "generate" template function to ixslt frontend ** wraps TransformerFacade and manages ist input arguments ** handles serialization to stream * this commit marks a important milestone towards the goals defined in 741a70f
2014-07-04Changed FunctionTransform result type to node-setAdrian Kummerlaender
* using xalan::FormatterToXercesDOM internally ** this required changes to the TransformationFacade::generate member method overloads * TransformationFacade::generate now accepts references to xalan::FormatterListener instances ** "generate(std::basic_ostream<char>&..." instantiates a xalan::FormatterToXML and passes it to the actual generate member method * changed ResultNodeFacade's "getNode" method into a "getResultElement" method ** xalan::FormatterToXercesDOM requires a xercesc::DOMElement instance instead of the previously available xercesc::DOMNode instance ** changed FunctionReadDirectory accordingly * adapted FunctionTransform test case accordingly
2014-06-30Switched external text formatter parameter to boost::filesystem::pathAdrian Kummerlaender
* this increases consistency accross all external functions * enables usage of non-global formatter executables
2014-06-29Switched FunctionWriteFile content parameter to xalan::XalanNode pointerAdrian Kummerlaender
* i.e. "write-file" now supports the serialization of given DOM structures ** this will be needed e.g. if FunctionTransform returns the result as a DOM tree instead of as a plain string ** enables the creation of multiple XML documents from within a single transformation *** i.e. backports the functionality provided in XSLT 2.0 by "xsl:result-document" to xalan's XSLT 1.0 * changed test cases accordingly
2014-06-28Added input parameter to FunctionTransformAdrian Kummerlaender
* the external "transform" function now expects a input document as its first parameter ** this input parameter is resolved and passed as input to the transformation ** changed and expanded test case accordingly * because of xalan internal problem this currently only supports input DOMs loaded directly from the fs ** passing result trees or node sets analog to how the transformation may be passed into the function leads to parsing and assert failures ** parsing node-based input DOMs using xalanc::XalanTransformer::parseSource produces errors concerning base entity resolution ** if the error capacitor instance is temporarily disabled it works correctly as long as one doesn't try to access the input document *** this causes a assert failure in the XPath implementation (seems to be related to XALANC-540)
2014-06-26Implemented basic external "write-file" functionAdrian Kummerlaender
* accepts a path parameter and the content to be written * removed target parameter form FunctionTransform ** transformation result is now returned as a string *** nodeset return value is planned ** e.g. writing the result to the fs is optional and has to be achieved using FunctionWriteFile * changed "transform" test case accordingly * this marks a paradigm shift and is the continuation of the changes described in 741a70f ** InputXSLT now also implements a output function * added basic io error handling to FunctionReadFile
2014-06-25Added support for resolving non-existing pathsAdrian Kummerlaender
* previous logic for resolving boost::filesystem::path parameters in the XObjectValue class actively tried to resolve existing files ** this contradicts the planned introduction of e.g. a external "write-file" function * callers of external functions with path arguments now have to enclose them in square brackets if include path resolution is required ** analog to the usage of the "xsl:import" tag * moved "getPathFromSystemId" from compilation local method into static method of IncludeEntityResolver * changed test cases accordingly
2014-06-17Added context awareness to XObjectValue casting logicAdrian Kummerlaender
* added support for defining boost::filesystem::path as a external function parameter ** boost::filesystem::path parameters are resolved against the appropriate FilesystemContext and IncludeEntityResolver instances * xalan::XSLTInputSource parameter source paths are also resolved * removed need for passing a reference FilesystemContext to "constructDocument" methods ** they now only accept the parameters of the external function implemented by them ** all path resolution logic is wrapped by the newly created XObjectValue class * converted XObjectValue namespace into class ** the "get" template method is now a template member method ** this was needed to enable value casting logic to access the appropriate FilesystemContext and IncludeEntityResolver instances * this commit marks the next step towards the goals defined in 741a70f
2014-06-16Prepared TransformationFacade and FunctionTransform for parameter changeAdrian Kummerlaender
* FunctionTransform was adapted to support passing the transformation as either a string path or directly as a node-set / result-tree ** this in turn required changes to the TransformationFacade ** the implementation of a xalan::XSLTInputSource specialization for the XObjectValue::get template method was also required * changed ixslt executable to match TransformationFacade constructor changes * these changes were implemented in preparation for a restructuring of how the separate external functions provided by InputXSLT operate and work together ** the approach up until now was to provide non-combinable external functions for distinct task such as "read a file" and "transform that transformation using these parameters into that file" ** if you think about the areas of operations of these functions are overlapping quite a bit *** e.g. FunctionTransform reads files, transforms DOM structures and writes files instead of only transforming things ** the new approach will be to limit the feature set of each function in the attempt of making the clearer and increasing their combinability *** e.g. FunctionTransform won't read or write files but expect both the input-DOM and the transformation-DOM as node-sets or result trees and return the transformed document as a node-set to be written using FunctionWriteFile (to be implemented)
2014-06-15Merged "read-xml-file" and "read-file" into "read-file"Adrian Kummerlaender
* FunctionReadFile is now able to distinguish between XML files and plain text files ** it selects the appropriate course of action automatically ** reading the file as XML into the DOM or reading it as a string * the current selection criteria is the file extension ** I am thinking about trying to import every file into the DOM and using the result state of that action as selection criteria * Updated README.md and test cases accordingly
2014-06-14Changed Base::callConstructDocument sequence parameter to std::size_tAdrian Kummerlaender
* "unsigned" type led to a compiler error on 64bit systems ** the Sequence template uses std::size_t which resolves to "unsigned long" instead of "unsigned int" on 64bit systems ** as "unsigned" is resolved to "unsigned int" by the compiler this situation produced a type conflict * added recommendation for using a xalan library version built with ICU flags to README.md ** otherwise e.g. the "format-number" function is not fully supported
2014-06-10Added input file support to ixsltAdrian Kummerländer
* a single file may be passed to the XSLT processor as input ** the file is read once and stored within a xalan::XalanParsedSource to be reused by all calls to "TransformationFacade::generate" * added appropriate TranformationFacade constructor overload ** this new constructor overload which is taking a path to both the transformation and the input file is the main constructor *** the old constructor is now only a alias for this new constructor * adapted static "try_create" TransformationFacade factory method into variadic template factory method * added optional "--input" argument to ixslt ** expanded option handling accordingly
2014-06-09Added include path resolution to FilesystemContext constructorAdrian Kummerländer
* extracted system id handling into separate "resolve" method overload of "IncludeEntityResolver" class * paths to be resolved against the include path vector are enclosed by square brackets ** FilesystemContext for external functions was instantiated using the unmodified systemId provided by xalan::Locator ** this commit adds include path resolution to that step *** exceptions were thrown as the program tried to instantiate a FilesystemContext instance without resolving the square bracket syntax * changed FunctionTransform "target" attribute content to the target path filename instead of the full path
2014-06-08Handling xercesc::DOMException in "read-xml-file" and "external-text-formatter"Adrian Kummerländer
* external DOM may cause xercesc::DOMException's to be thrown instead of passing all errors to the custom error handlers ** these exceptions are handled by this commit by setting the "result" attribute to "error" and adding "error" value nodes with further information
2014-06-07Improved FunctionBase constructDocument parameter propagationAdrian Kummerländer
* replaced std::tuple constructing Mapper template methods with direct XObjectArgVectorType unpacking ** XObjectValue::get template method is applied directly using parameter pack unpacking * implemented custom IndexSequence / Sequence type to provide vector indexes * modified all external functions to provide matching constructDocument overloads
2014-06-06Implemented WarningCapacitor as a counterpart to ErrorCapacitorAdrian Kummerländer
* in difference to ErrorCapacitor this class doesn't throw an exception on "discharge" but returns the gathered warnings * adapted FunctionTransform and frontend error handling to include warnings * added static "try_create" method to TransformationFacade ** wraps construction error handling ** custom logic may be embedded using the std::function argument *** this was implemented to prevent unneccessary code duplication for handling both construction and generation errors * adapted FunctionTransform to return warning as "warning" nodes in the result tree ** added functional lambda expression factory method "handleErrors" *** returns a error handling lambda expression for a given ResultNodeFacade * implemented WarningGuard class in frontend executable ** guarantees warnings to be printed to std::cerr independent of any exceptions
2014-06-05Implemented ErrorMultiplexer as primary error handlerAdrian Kummerländer
* ErrorMultiplexer is derived from both xercesc::ErrorHandler and xalan::ProblemListener * registers itself as XalanTransformer's ErrorHandler and ProblemListener * distributes captured errors and warnings to all registered ErrorMultiplexer::Receiver instances ** ErrorCapacitor implements the ErrorMultiplexer::Receiver interface and as such registers itself in a given ErrorMultiplexer instance ** ErrorMultiplexer reduces the different xalan and xercesc internal error classifications into either warnings or errors * this was implemented to make it possible to easily differentiate between warnings and errors ** previously warnings were treated as errors ** ErrorCapacitor ignores warnings and only captures errors ** WarningCapacitor will be implemented to handle warnings during XSLT processing
2014-06-03Replaced XSLTInputSource with LocalFileInputSource in "read-xml-file"Adrian Kummerländer
* removes xalan and boost::filesystem::fstream dependencies from FunctionReadXmlFile * xercesc provides a solution for loading files into it's XercesDOMParser class ** this should be used instead of building a custom replacement using boost's fstream and xalan::XSLTInputSource
2014-05-31Revamped external function result treesAdrian Kummerländer
* the root node of the result tree of each function is a domain element ** i.e. the root node of "read-xml-file" is "file", the root node of "read-directory" is "directory" * the root node contains the result state of the function call encoded in a "result" attribute ** possible values are "success" and "error" ** the root node may contain additional attributes such as the target path of a called transformation * the actual function result is contained within the child nodes of the function root node ** i.e. the XML file tree returned by "read-xml-file" is a child of the function root node ** if specific errors occured they are also returned as child nodes of the function root node *** this is currently only the case for "transform" where transformation errors are returned as "error" value node childs of the function root node * updated test cases accordingly
2014-05-30Rewrote error handling based on exceptionsAdrian Kummerländer
* ErrorHandler is replaced by ErrorCapacitor ** temporarily registers itself as both the ProblemListener and ErrorHandler of a given XalanTransformer instance ** deregisters itself on destruction ** collects all problems and errors during its lifetime inside a internal std::vector<std::string> instance ** if this instance is not empty it is thrown contained within a ErrorCapacitor::exception by the member method ErrorCapacitor::discharge * this enables using the same code for handling transformation compilation and generation errors and problems * updated test frontend accordingly
2014-05-29Improved TransformationFacade error handlingAdrian Kummerländer
* ErrorHandler class created in 5859cb6 now caches all errors instead of pushing them to std::cerr ** cached errors are retrieved by TransformationFacade's "generate" member method * test frontend pushes all errors to std::cerr * FunctionTransform returns errors to the calling template as XML ** FunctionTransform test case demonstrates how one may test for successful transformation * "generate" member method returns std::string vector wrapped in a std::unique_ptr ** this is used as a kind of optional pointer, as the std::unique_ptr instance only wraps a vector if errors where actually generated
2014-05-28Moved input trimming into XObjectValue namespaceAdrian Kummerländer
* std::string specialization of "get" template method * replaces FunctionTransform local input trimming implemented in 5859cb6
2014-05-28Implemented basic ErrorHandlerAdrian Kummerländer
* InputXSLT::ErrorHandler is derived from xercesc::ErrorHandler and enables contextual printing of transformation errors ** currently this means that the error messages passed to std::cerr contain the full path of the offending transformation * added input trimming to the external transform function ** calls to this function from inside a transformation may contain unnecessary whitespace characters which disrupt further processing
2014-05-26Revamped external execute function into a external text formatter functionAdrian Kummerländer
* importing XML output of a called executable into the result document required special logic which clashed with a general execute function * general execute function may be implemented in the future ** support for external text formatters with XML output has a higher priority * current implementation enables calling a markdown parser and including the XHTML output into the document
2014-05-25Implemented basic external "execute" functionAdrian Kummerländer
* enables execution of external programs ** second parameter is passed to stdin ** stdout is captured and returned ** based on booost::process * this was implemented to enable access to external content preprocessors such as markdown
2014-05-24Prevented FilesystemContext from resolving absolute pathsAdrian Kummerländer
* there are situations where one may pass absolute paths to external functions which should not be resolved against the context path ** for example when reading files found by "read-directory" through its "full" value node * this could be checked by the external functions themself ** but as this check is required by all of them it is better implemented in the FilesystemContext
2014-05-24Implemented ResultNodeFacade as a DOM node construction helperAdrian Kummerländer
* wraps result node construction and appends it to root node on destruction * offers a simpler interface for common node construction patterns * simplifies result node construction in all external function implementations ** most noticeable in FunctionReadDirectory * expanded FunctionReadDirectory result nodes by name, extension, and full-path nodes
2014-05-22Replaced std::pair<bool, *> with the more convenient boost::optional<*>Adrian Kummerländer
* InputXSLT is dependent on boost anyway, so there is no argument to be made to emulate boost::optional using std::pair
2014-05-22Added include path resolution to external file access functionsAdrian Kummerländer
* if a given file can not be located relative to the transformation's location both "read-file" and "read-xml-file" will now try to resolve the path using the IncludeEntityResolver * all external functions based on the FunctionBase template are now provided with a pointer to a IncludeEntityResolver instance * it is determined by the external function implementation whether include path resolution will be used
