Default XML Merge Records using XSLT
Hi All,
I am new to XSLT and i am reading via "XSLT grouping" google phrase but not able to get my arms around it as i am not an XSLT pro.
I have following a sample XML data, which is Contact data in XML as input where header is just header element and contact is looping records
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
 <Contact_CSV>
  - <header>
        <last_name/>
        <first_name/>
        <salutation/>
        <ebs_status/>
        <job_title/>
        <email/>

A few points.

Are you using XSLT 1.0 or 2.0? You stylesheet says version="2.0". If that's the case, you don't need to use the complicated Muenchian grouping approach, you can use the much simpler xsl:for-each-group instruction.

Secondly, when posting to a forum like this, please simplify the problem to get rid of inessentials. We don't need to see a list of forty fields, when the problem would be exactly the same with four. Simplifying it not only helps us to understand the problem more easily, it also helps you to understand it.

Finally, XSLT code is a lot more readable if you use literal result elements. Instead of <xsl:element name="x" namespace=""/>, write <x/>.

Hi mhkay,

please see this after for-each-group? i am doing right thing doesnt looks like can you please take a look and point the obvisous flow if you see?

I have following a sample XML data, which is Contact data in XML as input where header is just header element and contact is looping records
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Contact_CSV>
- <header>
<last_name/>
<first_name/>
<contactid/>
<primaryaccountid/>
<primaryaddressid/>
<AddressIds/>
<AccountIds/>
</header>
<Contact>
<last_name>pathak</last_name>

Hi mhkay,

i got success on XSLT but i am stuck at merging records as both records have same contactid but different AddressId i need to concate AddressId group by contactid.

Following XLST seems to work XMLSpy please give me pointer to concate AddressId

Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet exclude-result-prefixes="exslt saxon bpws cis ihmap" version="2.0" xmlns:bpws="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2003/03/business-process/" xmlns:cis="http://www.approuter.com/schemas/2003/1/UserCallouts/" xmlns:exslt="http://exslt.org/common" xmlns:ihmap="http://www.approuter.com/xmlns/2002/Mapping" xmlns:saxon="http://saxon.sf.net/" xmlns:xml="http://www.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output encoding="UTF-8" indent="yes" method="xml"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:element name="Contact_CSV" namespace="">
<xsl:element name="header" namespace="">
<xsl:element name="last_name" namespace=""/>
<xsl:element name="first_name" namespace=""/>
<xsl:element name="contactid" namespace=""/>
<xsl:element name="primaryaccountid" namespace=""/>
<xsl:element name="primaryaddressid" namespace=""/>
<xsl:element name="AddressIds" namespace=""/>
<xsl:element name="AccountIds" namespace=""/>
</xsl:element>
<xsl:for-each-group select="Contact_CSV/Contact" group-by=".">
<xsl:sort select="."/>
<xsl:value-of select="."/>
<xsl:for-each-group select="current-group()" group-by="contactid">
<xsl:element name="Contact" namespace="">
<xsl:element name="last_name" namespace="">
<xsl:value-of select="last_name"/>
</xsl:element>
<xsl:element name="first_name" namespace="">
<xsl:value-of select="first_name"/>
</xsl:element>
<xsl:element name="contactid" namespace="">
<xsl:value-of select="contactid"/>
</xsl:element>
<xsl:element name="primaryaccountid" namespace="">
<xsl:value-of select="primaryaccountid"/>
</xsl:element>
<xsl:element name="primaryaddressid" namespace="">

Here is a sample stylesheet using xsl:for-each-group to group and merge the Contact elements, taking the first child element for all child elements besides the AddressIds child element, where the string-join() of all such elements in a group is taken:
Code:
<xsl:stylesheet
  xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
  version="2.0">
  
  <xsl:output indent="yes"/>
  
  <xsl:template match="Contact_CSV">
    <xsl:copy>
      <xsl:copy-of select="header"/>
      <xsl:for-each-group select="Contact" group-by="contactid">
        <xsl:copy>
          <xsl:copy-of select="AddressIds/preceding-sibling::*"/>
          <AddressIds>
            <xsl:value-of select="string-join(current-group()/AddressIds, '|')"/>
          </AddressIds>
          <xsl:copy-of select="AddressIds/following-sibling::*"/>
        </xsl:copy>
      </xsl:for-each-group>
    </xsl:copy>
  </xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

Hi Mhkay/Martin,

please verify the following XSLT for removing duplicate
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Contact_CSV>
<header>
<last_name/>
<first_name/>
<contactid/>
<primaryaccountid/>
<primaryaddressid/>
<AddressIds/>
<AccountIds/>
</header>
<Contact>
<last_name>My Last Name</last_name>
<first_name>My First Name</first_name>
<contactid>AAGA-3G9GQE</contactid>
<primaryaccountid>AAGA-3G94WA</primaryaccountid>
<primaryaddressid>AAGA-3FY71P</primaryaddressid>
<AddressIds>AAGA-3FY71P</AddressIds>
<AccountIds>AAGA-3G94WA</AccountIds>
</Contact>
<Contact>
<last_name>My Last Name</last_name>
<first_name>My First Name</first_name>
<contactid>AAGA-3G9GQE</contactid>
<primaryaccountid>AAGA-3G94WA</primaryaccountid>
<primaryaddressid>AAGA-3FY71P</primaryaddressid>
<AddressIds>AAGA-3FY71P</AddressIds>
<AccountIds>AAGA-3G94WA</AccountIds>
</Contact>
</Contact_CSV>
what am i missing
Code:
 
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="2.0">
<xsl:output indent="yes"/> 
<xsl:template match="Contact_CSV">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:copy-of select="header"/>
<xsl:for-each-group select="Contact" group-by="contactid">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:copy-of select="current-group()"/>
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:for-each-group>
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
this is not removing duplicate

Well you group but then copy the context node (which I think is the first item in the current group) and then inside of that you output the complete group.
I guess you want
Code:
<xsl:template match="Contact_CSV">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:copy-of select="header"/>
<xsl:for-each-group select="Contact" group-by="contactid">
<xsl:copy-of select="."/>
</xsl:for-each-group>
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
