XProc 3.0 alternatives, was Re: Aw: Re: [xsl] Rexsel — A simpler way of writing XSLT

Martin,

That is an awesome question (XProc 3.0 under Python) and I am going to track
it. Unfortunately I have no answer today.

Its a little off-topic here  or maybe it isnt  but I have a project
underway, one of whose goals to make XProc 3.0 easier to run and use, starting
with Achim Berndzens awesome Morgana III (JVM-based), but ultimately not
limited or locked in to this processor, and open for anyone to test with --
https://github.com/usnistgov/oscal-xproc3

Lots of XSLT in there! Its meant not only for developers, but also for
beginners and domain-expert users, who must understand processes even if they
dont write code.

Cheers, Wendell

Good point in general, but is there a good and easy way to use XProc 3
from/with Python ?

Hello,

Or, today, to process HTML into an XSLT pipeline, one might opt for XProc
3.0.

What with plain-text, JSON and HTML inputs, and with XSLT streaming and
accumulators, maybe XSLT has finally caught up with Omnimark?

Regards, Wendell

If you have a Saxon PE or EE license you can use SaxonCPE or SaxonCEE
(https://pypi.org/project/saxoncee/) with Python and use the parse-html
extension/XPath 4 function to process HTML5 with XSLT 4/XQuery 4 (and until we
see 12.5 with XPath if you use the hack of
https://saxonica.plan.io/issues/5967#note-8).

parse-html(unparsed-text("https://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/saxon";))

Your mileage of "easy way" might differ.
