How to generate the HTML from XSD

[akhilkhandelwal]

Hello,
Thank you for wonderful library. I was trying to generate the HTML from one of my XSD.

Following is the java program which I wrote:

`public class XSLTransform
{
public static void main( String [] args ) throws Exception {
if ( args.length < 2 || !args[0].endsWith(".xsl") ) {
System.err.println("usage: XSLTransform file.xsl file.xml");
System.exit(1);
}
String xslFile = args[0], xmlFile = args[1];

    TransformerFactory factory = TransformerFactory.newInstance();
    Transformer transformer = 
        factory.newTransformer( new StreamSource( xslFile ) );
    StreamSource xmlsource = new StreamSource( xmlFile );
    StreamResult output = new StreamResult( System.out );
    transformer.transform( xmlsource, output );
}

}`

And I run this program as:

java XSLTransform xsd2html2xml.xsl dynamicui-definitions.xsd.

Output:

Compiler warnings:

Do you get the same error with another XSLT compiler, such as libxslt?

[akhilkhandelwal]

Have not tried that. Though I used the online tool what you have, that works fine and I am able to generate the HTML.

But I want to make this work as part of my build process and need make this work either by Java/shell script. On Fri, Jul 12, 2019, 3:25 PM Akhil khandelwal <[email protected]> wrote:

If you have a script/program which can be called from command line and if you do not mind it sharing, Please share. I need to automate the generation process. Regards, Akhil On Fri, Jul 12, 2019 at 3:39 PM Akhil khandelwal <[email protected]> wrote:

Just use libxslt. You can run it from the command line on Linux or Windows with a one-liner: xsltproc -o form.html xsd2html2xml.xsl dynamicui-definitions.xsd
