RSLT

RSLT lets you describe a transformation between one XML format and another. The idea is it's as functional as XSLT, but encourages stylesheets which are readable, modular and easy to test.

I've extracted it from an app I built for my work at Lonely Planet.

Use it instead of XSLT if you have any complex transformation rules.

My colleague at Lonely Planet, Jani Patokallio, has written up an excellent description over here

Build Status

FEATURES

Nice syntax. Testable, reusable xml transformation In live use on REE 1.8.7 and MRI 1.9.3, and tested against several others via TravisCI.

Example

class MyStylesheet < RSLT::Stylesheet
  def rules
    render('parent > child')     { builder.p(:style => "child_content" ) { child_content }  }
    render('parent')             { builder.p(:style => "parent_content") { child_content }  }
    render('text()')             { add element.to_xml.upcase                                }
  end
end

MyStylesheet.transform <<-XML
<parent>
  <child>Use RSLT</child>
</parent>
XML
-> <p style="parent_content"><p style="child_content">USE RSLT</p></p>
