Batch transforming XML files in the database

-

Sometimes you need to make the same changes to many or all of your MEI documents. - Typical changes are text replacements (if, for instance, your project changes its - name or address), but also more complex, structural changes are possible. Using an - XSL transformation for such tasks often is more efficient than editing all the - documents by hand. Instead of downloading all of your files, transforming them - locally on your computer, and upload them back to the server, MerMEId offers a - script to do such a transformation directly on the server.
- Please note, however, that due to software limitations transformations cannot make - any changes to the documents' root element (that is, <mei>), - such as changing the meiversion attribute. To migrate your data to newer - MEI versions, therefore, you will need to download your data, transform them locally - and upload them to the new database. -

- -

Prior to using the script, an XSLT style sheet making the desired changes must be - placed somewhere where your server has access to it.

-

The script is located in the 'tools' folder in your eXist database: batch_transform_settings.xq.

-

The server may prompt you for an administrator password in order to give you access - to the script. You should see the following form. It includes basic instructions and - suggests default settings in some of the fields:

-

Batch transform

-

Fill in the form to define which files to select. The recommended default location of the - XSLT style sheets is - (http://[your-server]/exist/rest/db/mermeid/tools/batch_xsl/), i.e. in your eXist database, - but your style sheet may also be located outside of the database or on some other server. - Click the 'Search files' button to get a list of files matching the search criteria. - Possibly not all files will actually be changed – that depends on your XSL transformation. - The list only indicates the files that the script will attempt to transform.

-

Hit the 'Transform' button to run the transformation.

- -

After the transformation process – if the connection did not time out – a - result page will list the files changed and those that were unaffected by the - transformation.
