HOW TO:使用附註轉換 XSLT 樣式的 LINQ to XML 樹狀結構

附註可用於簡化 XML 樹狀結構的轉換。

有些 XML 文件為「中央具有混合內容的文件」。使用這類文件時,您不一定要知道項目子節點的組織結構。 例如,包含文字的節點類似如下:

<text>A phrase with <b>bold</b> and <i>italic</i> text.</text>

針對任何指定的文字節點,可能會有任何數目的 <b> 和 <i> 子項目。 這個方法會延伸到數個其他情況:亦即, 可以包含各種子項目的頁面,例如,一般段落、分項段落與點陣圖。 資料表中的儲存格可能包含文字、下拉式清單或點陣圖。 文件中心 XML 的其中一個主要特性為,您不知道任何特定項目將會有哪個子項目。

如果您要在樹狀結構中,轉換您不一定了解太多您要轉換之項目子系的項目,則使用附註的這個方法是一個有效的方法。

方法的摘要如下:

  • 首先,在樹狀結構中,以替代項目附註項目。

  • 接著,逐一查看整個樹狀結構,建立您以其附註取代每個項目的新樹狀結構。 這個範本會在名稱為 XForm 的函式中,實作反覆運算並建立新的樹狀結構。

就細節而言,此方法包含:

  • 執行一或多個 LINQ to XML 查詢,這些查詢會傳回您要從一個組織結構轉換為另一個組織結構的項目集。 針對查詢中的每個項目,加入新的 XElement 物件做為項目的附註。 這個新項目將會取代已轉換之新樹狀結構中的附註項目。 如本範例的示範,這是容易撰寫的簡單程式碼。

  • 加入為附註的新項目可以包含新的子節點;它可以形成具有任何所需組織結構的子樹狀結構。

  • 有一個特殊規則:如果新項目的子節點位於不同的命名空間中,也就是針對此目的所形成的命名空間 (在此範例中,命名空間為 https://www.microsoft.com/LinqToXmlTransform/2007),則不會將該子項目複製到新的樹狀結構中。 但是,如果命名空間為上述的特殊命名空間,而且該項目的區域名稱為 ApplyTransforms,則會反覆運算來源樹狀結構中項目的子節點,並複製到新的樹狀結構 (除非附註的子項目會根據這些規則自我轉換) 中。

  • 這有點類似於 XSL 中的轉換規格。 選取一組節點的查詢類似於範本的 XPath 運算式。 建立另存為附註之新 XElement 的程式碼類似於 XSL 中的序列建構函式,而 ApplyTransforms 項目在功能上則類似於 XSL 中的 xsl:apply-templates 項目。

  • 採取此種方法的其中一個優點是,當您編寫查詢時,您永遠都是在未修改的來源樹狀結構上撰寫查詢。 您不必擔心樹狀結構的修改會如何影響您要撰寫的查詢。

轉換樹狀結構

這個第一個範例會將所有 Paragraph 節點重新命名為 para。

XNamespace xf = "https://www.microsoft.com/LinqToXmlTransform/2007";
XName at = xf + "ApplyTransforms";

XElement root = XElement.Parse(@"
<Root>
    <Paragraph>This is a sentence with <b>bold</b> and <i>italic</i> text.</Paragraph>
    <Paragraph>More text.</Paragraph>
</Root>");

// replace Paragraph with para
foreach (var el in root.Descendants("Paragraph"))
    el.AddAnnotation(
        new XElement("para",
            // same idea as xsl:apply-templates
            new XElement(xf + "ApplyTransforms")
        )
    );

// The XForm method, shown later in this topic, accomplishes the transform
XElement newRoot = XForm(root);

Console.WriteLine(newRoot);
Imports <xmlns:xf="https://www.microsoft.com/LinqToXmlTransform/2007">

Module Module1
    Dim at As XName = GetXmlNamespace(xf) + "ApplyTransforms"

    Sub Main()
        Dim root As XElement = _
            <Root>
                <Paragraph>This is a sentence with <b>bold</b> and <i>italic</i> text.</Paragraph>
                <Paragraph>More text.</Paragraph>
            </Root>

        ' Replace Paragraph with p.
        For Each el In root...<Paragraph>
            ' same idea as xsl:apply-templates
            el.AddAnnotation( _
                <para>
                    <<%= at %>></>
                </para>)
        Next

        ' The XForm function, shown later in this topic, accomplishes the transform
        Dim newRoot As XElement = XForm(root)
        Console.WriteLine(newRoot)
    End Sub
End Module

這個範例會產生下列輸出:

<Root>
  <para>This is a sentence with <b>bold</b> and <i>italic</i> text.</para>
  <para>More text.</para>
</Root>

更複雜的轉換

下列範例會查詢樹狀結構並計算 Data 項目的平均值和總和,然後將它們加入為樹狀結構中的新項目。

XNamespace xf = "https://www.microsoft.com/LinqToXmlTransform/2007";
XName at = xf + "ApplyTransforms";

XElement data = new XElement("Root",
    new XElement("Data", 20),
    new XElement("Data", 10),
    new XElement("Data", 3)
);

// while adding annotations, you can query the source tree all you want,
// as the tree is not mutated while annotating.
data.AddAnnotation(
    new XElement("Root",
        new XElement(xf + "ApplyTransforms"),
        new XElement("Average",
            String.Format("{0:F4}",
                data
                .Elements("Data")
                .Select(z => (Decimal)z)
                .Average()
            )
        ),
        new XElement("Sum",
            data
            .Elements("Data")
            .Select(z => (int)z)
            .Sum()
        )
    )
);

Console.WriteLine("Before Transform");
Console.WriteLine("----------------");
Console.WriteLine(data);
Console.WriteLine();
Console.WriteLine();

// The XForm method, shown later in this topic, accomplishes the transform
XElement newData = XForm(data);

Console.WriteLine("After Transform");
Console.WriteLine("----------------");
Console.WriteLine(newData);
Imports <xmlns:xf="https://www.microsoft.com/LinqToXmlTransform/2007">

Module Module1
    Dim at As XName = GetXmlNamespace(xf) + "ApplyTransforms"

    Sub Main()
        Dim data As XElement = _
            <Root>
                <Data>20</Data>
                <Data>10</Data>
                <Data>3</Data>
            </Root>

        ' While adding annotations, you can query the source tree all you want,
        ' as the tree is not mutated while annotating.
        data.AddAnnotation( _
            <Root>
                <<%= at %>/>
                <Average>
                    <%= _
                        String.Format("{0:F4}", _
                        data.Elements("Data") _
                        .Select(Function(z) CDec(z)).Average()) _
                    %>
                </Average>
                <Sum>
                    <%= _
                        data.Elements("Data").Select(Function(z) CInt(z)).Sum() _
                    %>
                </Sum>
            </Root> _
        )

        Console.WriteLine("Before Transform")
        Console.WriteLine("----------------")
        Console.WriteLine(data)
        Console.WriteLine(vbNewLine)

        ' The XForm function, shown later in this topic, accomplishes the transform
        Dim newData As XElement = XForm(data)

        Console.WriteLine("After Transform")
        Console.WriteLine("----------------")
        Console.WriteLine(newData)
    End Sub
End Module 

這個範例會產生下列輸出:

Before Transform
----------------
<Root>
  <Data>20</Data>
  <Data>10</Data>
  <Data>3</Data>
</Root>


After Transform
----------------
<Root>
  <Data>20</Data>
  <Data>10</Data>
  <Data>3</Data>
  <Average>11.0000</Average>
  <Sum>33</Sum>
</Root>

實行轉換

XForm 這個小函式會從原始的附註樹狀結構建立轉換的新樹狀結構。

  • 函式的虛擬程式碼相當簡單:
The function takes an XElement as an argument and returns an XElement. 
If an element has an XElement annotation, then
    Return a new XElement
        The name of the new XElement is the annotation element's name.
        All attributes are copied from the annotation to the new node.
        All child nodes are copied from the annotation, with the
            exception that the special node xf:ApplyTransforms is
            recognized, and the source element's child nodes are
            iterated. If the source child node is not an XElement, it
            is copied to the new tree. If the source child is an
            XElement, then it is transformed by calling this function
            recursively.
If an element is not annotated
    Return a new XElement
        The name of the new XElement is the source element's name
        All attributes are copied from the source element to the
            destination's element.
        All child nodes are copied from the source element.
        If the source child node is not an XElement, it is copied to
            the new tree. If the source child is an XElement, then it
            is transformed by calling this function recursively.

以下是此函式的實作:

// Build a transformed XML tree per the annotations
static XElement XForm(XElement source)
{
    XNamespace xf = "https://www.microsoft.com/LinqToXmlTransform/2007";
    XName at = xf + "ApplyTransforms";

    if (source.Annotation<XElement>() != null)
    {
        XElement anno = source.Annotation<XElement>();
        return new XElement(anno.Name,
            anno.Attributes(),
            anno
            .Nodes()
            .Select(
                (XNode n) =>
                {
                    XElement annoEl = n as XElement;
                    if (annoEl != null)
                    {
                        if (annoEl.Name == at)
                            return (object)(

這個範例產生下列輸出:

</Root>


After Transform

<Root Att1="123">
