Creation of page: Simple split teiCorpus to TEI documents stylesheet

New page

== Summary ==
This is a quick XSLT to split a <teiCorpus> file, filled with <TEI> elements into individual files.

While one can actually do this on the linux command line with an easy bash script or pipeline, XSLT2 is my preferred method for doing this since the document is already an XML document. An extra template is include to change an element along the way in case you want to do that.

The original post I made about it is at:

http://faqingperplxd.wordpress.com/2009/03/02/xslt-to-split-teicorpus-files-to-individual-parts/

Add any comments to the 'discussion' tab.

Run with something like: <pre>saxon -o index.xml teiCorpusFile.xml Split-teiCorpus.xsl</pre>

== Required Input ==

A file with the structure something like:

<pre>
<teiCorpus xmlns="http://www.tei-c.org/ns/1.0">
<teiHeader>

</teiHeader>


<TEI>
<teiHeader>

</teiHeader>
<text>

</text>
</TEI>



</teiCorpus>
</pre>

That is, a <teiCorpus> element containing a <teiHeader> and multiple <TEI> elements. To get one file per <TEI> element is really fairly simple using <xsl:for-each> and <xsl:result-document> but I also added in that the output file produces a list of filled with references to the files created.

== Expected Output ==

An index.xml file with a list referencing each file created, and an individual file for each TEI element.

== Known Restrictions or Problems ==

* It assumes you want the files numbered sequentially
* It assumes that you have a title in the corpus header
* It is XSLT2, so use saxon
