Calling a block of transformations
Hi there, Another newbie question I'm afraid. There are a set of transformers that I commonly call from a lot of pipelines and that I'd like to be able to possibly change at a later date. I was wondering if there is a way to call another pipeline inside a generate - serialize block so something like: map:match pattern=edit-data map:generate src=data-chunk.xml/ !--Do some specific transform-- map:transform type=session/ !--Call another pipeline to do some more transformations-- ?? map:serialize / /map:match map:pipeline internal-only=true map:match pattern=xforms-convert map:transform src=context://stylesheets/system.xsl / map:transform src=context://stylesheets/base.xsl map:transform src=context://stylesheets/client/xforms.xsl/ /map:match /map:pipeline I don't think redirect is what I'm looking for but I don't think I want to use the aggregation (as there no generator) as seen in http://cocoon.apache.org/2.1/snippet/snippet-internal-pipeline.html.

You're looking for map:resource. See
http://cocoon.apache.org/2.1/userdocs/concepts/sitemap.html#The+%3Cmap%3Aresources%3E
and the samples.
You can combine a group of sitemap components within a resource and call them
from other pipelines by map:call resource=[name]/.
Please note that this will be deprecated in Cocoon 2.2 in favour of the concept
of virtual sitemap components.
Also note that there is no inheritance of resources which means that they are
only available within the sitemap where they are declared. This is one issue
that virtual sitemap components will fix.

RE: Calling a block of transformations
Check into resources. They are basically a group of tags that you can call easily... I use one at the end of all my pipelines to strip namespaces from the final xhtml and serialize... It would look somehting like this: map:resources map:resource name=xforms-convert map:transform src=context://stylesheets/system.xsl / map:transform src=context://stylesheets/base.xsl map:transform src=context://stylesheets/client/xforms.xsl/ /map:resource /map:resources And in your pipeline map:match pattern=edit-data map:generate src=data-chunk.xml/ !--Do some specific transform-- map:transform type=session/ map:call resource=xforms-convert/ map:serialize / /map:match Note that (unless I just missed it), you can't call a resource from a different sitemap... So if you have a main sitemap with mounted sitemaps that need to use the same resource, you have to copy it into each of them.

I'll keep the virtual sitemap concept in mind for when 2.2 is released and I'm porting to it. I have seen resources previously used in this manor so why it didn't click I'm not sure.

I depend heavily on resources... Is there any form of virtual sitemap components in the 2.1.x tree? Reinhard Poetz wrote: Stewart, Gary wrote: Hi there, Another newbie question I'm afraid.

-Original Message- From: JD Daniels [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] I depend heavily on resources... Is there any form of virtual sitemap components in the 2.1.x tree? Reinhard did say deprecated so I imagine you'll still be able to use resources for some versions to come.

as most of us that want to avoid code duplication do ;-)
of course resources will go through an appropriate deprecation cycle

components in the 2.1.x tree?
no, only in trunk (they should work there)
