[Exist-open] XQuery for publishing Question

[Casey J. <cas...@jo...>]

HI all

I was interested to know if anyone had found a method to allow
customization of publishing via XQuery the same way you can with XSLT.
Essentially, the ability to drop new "templates" in that can change default
output.

I've been wanting to move our publishing off xslt for a while now, but not
being able to do this has been preventing me from accomplish it.

I have been thinking maybe annotations would provide the capability. For
instance:

(: Provide a custom template to match an image without an @src :)

declare %pub:match('img[not(@src)]') function custom:image-proc($node ) {

element{"img"}{

$node/@*,

attribute{"warn"}{"Image missing src"},

pub:dispatch($node) (: Dispatch processing to child nodes. IE:
apply-templates :)


}

 }


Thanks,

Casey
