Hi,
Is there a more elegant way to feed an xml tree into a context() command
that what I have below?
\startluacode
function xml.functions.heading(t)
context.section("{")
lxml.flush(t)
context("}")
end
\stopluacode
The subtree in ’t’ could have embedded xml tags that should be processed,
so just stripping it clean will not do.
(this is not about \section as such, I just needed an example. \startsection
would be more modern, but it would not help fix the issue )
Thanks for any help,
Taco

it actually depends on what you do ... anyway here is some insight (as
xml-tex old-timer you'll probably recognize the madness)
% \enabletrackers[context*]
\starttext
% here is your missing mwe
\startbuffer[test]
<document>
<section>some <b>bold</b> title</section>
</document>
\stopbuffer
% this will assume xml and relate some handlers
\setuphead[section]
[coding=xml,
xmlsetup=xml:flush]
\startxmlsetups xml:flush
\xmlflush{#1}
\stopxmlsetups
% comment this one for your amusement
\startxmlsetups xml:b
{\bf \xmlflush{#1}}
\stopxmlsetups
% here is the magic: you pass a reference
\startluacode
function xml.finalizers.heading(t)
context.formatted.section("main::%i",t[1].ix)
end
\stopluacode
% this loads only (can happen at the lua end ... you can sort that out)
\xmlloadbuffer{main}{test}{}
% this indexes the nodes (the ix keys, basically all these #1 argumehnts
in setups use that trickery)
\xmladdindex{main}
% to be sure
\xmlsetsetup{main}{b}{xml:b}
% now we filter / apply your finalizer
\xmlfilter{main}{section/heading()}
% done
\stoptext

My 2 cents:
local xmlflush = lxml.flush
local function text_or_xml(...)
for i,v in ipairs(arg) do
if "table" == type(v) then
xmlflush(v)
else
context(v)
end
end
end
function xml.functions.heading(t)
text_or_xml( "\\section{" , t , "}" )
end

Hi,
> it actually depends on what you do ... anyway here is some insight (as xml-tex old-timer you'll probably recognize the madness)
What I am mostly trying to do is to have as much of the xml processing in lua
as possible.
>

>
> \starttext
>
> % here is your missing mwe
Yes, sorry about that. My question was intended to be more of an
documentation-related one.
Using your MWE as guideline, my minimal file looks like this:
% BEGIN ENVIRONMENT
\startluacode
function xml.functions.document(t)
lxml.flush(t)
end
function xml.functions.b(t)
context.start()
context.bf()
lxml.flush(t)
context.stop()
context("{}")
end
function xml.functions.section(t)
context.section("{")
lxml.flush(t)
context("}")
end
\stopluacode
\startxmlsetups mysetups % to be converted to lua later
\xmlsetfunction {main}{document}{xml.functions.document}
\xmlsetfunction {main}{section} {xml.functions.section}
\xmlsetfunction {main}{b} {xml.functions.b}
\stopxmlsetups
\xmlregistersetup{mysetups} % to be converted to lua later
% XML normally in separate file
\starttext
\startbuffer[test]
<document>
<section>some <b>bold</b> title</section>
</document>
\stopbuffer
\xmlprocessbuffer{main}{test}{}
\stoptext
% END EXAMPLE
I know it would be simple to write e.g.
\startsetups xml:section
\section{\xmlflush{#1}}
\stopsetups
but I was aiming for a simple, clean-looking CLD as style setup of the XML
document. I doubt I could explain your MWE to one of my coworkers, as I
hardly understand it myself :)
What I was really hoping for was something like the fictional:
function xml.functions.section(t)
context.section(lxml.process_into_context_string(t))
end
or some CLD extension so that it would actually understand
function xml.functions.section(t)
context.section(lxml.flush(t))
end
I hope this makes more sense now. Unless something magical is possible,
it seems my best bet is to stick with \startsetups instead of lua for
these cases, just to make sure I can explain to the rest of the office
what is going on.
Thanks,
Taco
