  • creating diary entries from my (little) blog articles

    https://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_Feeds https://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_Feeds#Finding_Your_Feed_URL 1st approach: xmlstarlet with an XPath expression (rss/channel/item/link) + shell wrapper. 2nd approach: XQuery script looping over rss/channel/item (+ shell wrapper). I am glad to upload it to my github area, in case somebody is interested. Update 2016-08-26: By default WordPress creates an RSS feed with just 10 entries. I don’t create my diary entries…

  • how would I do something like “disable-output-escaping yes” in XQuery?

    http://stackoverflow.com/questions/38677984/how-would-i-do-something-like-disable-output-escaping-yes-in-xquery I am transforming an bank account statement from HTML to a text file (meant to be read by humans) using XQuery. And I want to use “<” and “>” in the output. But XQuery serialisation does the usual XML / HTML escaping. I wonder, how I can get around that unwanted rewriting.

  • after a couple of months using XPath and xmlstarlet I created my first lenghty XQuery script using Saxon9HE

    “In production” I have been using a Bash+xmlstarlet script, that I wanted to optimise by rewriting it into an XQuery script. This would be my 1st XQuery script after a couple of months of exercising XQuery through Priscilla Walmsley’s book and Saxon9HE – a couple of hours per week only because of my entire workload. During…

  •  XQuery: format-number: using $decimal-format-name is really, really weird

    https://www.w3.org/TR/xpath-functions-30/#func-format-number Can you imagine, that the 3rd argument needs extra double quotes around? And it’s not easy to find an example showing this, but here I found one: https://www.amazon.de/dp/9671317502 – “Web Coding Bible” declare decimal-format local:de decimal-separator = “,” grouping-separator = “.”; declare decimal-format local:en decimal-separator = “.” grouping-separator = “,”; let $numbers := (1234.567, 789,…

  • XQuery: padding an integer or a number, but not with “0”

    I found this function, but it pads on the right: http://www.xqueryfunctions.com/xq/functx_pad-string-to-length.html : functx:pad-string-to-length I derived pad-string-to-length-on-the-left from it: https://github.com/JochenHayek/misc/blob/master/xqueryfunctions/pad-string-to-length-on-the-left.xqy https://github.com/JochenHayek/misc/blob/master/xqueryfunctions I use it around format-integer and format-number, e.g. let $net_amount_formatted := local:pad-string-to-length-on-the-left( format-number( data($invoice/@net_amount) , ‘#,###.#####’ ) , ‘ ‘ , 12 )

Looks like there is nothing in the “built-in library”. Looks like there is no functx:pad-integer-to-length as well, but functx:pad-string-to-length looks intriguing – but it only pads on the right. I created a variant, that pads on…

  • listing a Jenkins CI folder recursively

    https://github.com/JochenHayek/misc – pls find my script here! First I wrote this as a Shell script … calling XMLStarlet resp. SaxonHE (for XPath) and curl (for retrieving the Jenkins details as XML files). $ …/jenkins_find_jobs.sh https://integration.wikimedia.org/ci folder … freeStyleProject … matrixProject … The listing is quite helpful for documentational purposes. I was really proud on my little achievement…
