Use saxon with python

I need to process XSLT using python, currently I'm using lxml which only support XSLT 1, now I need to process XSLT 2 is there any way to use saxon XSLT processor with python?

Solution

  • There are two possible approaches:

    1. set up an HTTP service that accepts tranformation requests and implements them by invoking Saxon from Java; you can then send the transformation requests from Python over HTTP

    2. use the Saxon/C product, currently available on prerelease: details here: http://www.saxonica.com/saxon-c/index.xml
