xslt 1.0 to convert xs:date to a specific dateFormat DD-MON-YYYY

问题

I am new to xslt. so this might be a basic question. I am trying to convert a date received in xs:date format to DD-MON-YYYY input received is : <tns:receivedDate>2017-06-27</tns:receivedDate> Output expected <tns:receivedDate>27-JUN-2017</tns:receivedDate>

Thanks in advance

If you mean convert YYYY-MM-DD to DD-MMM-YYYY, try:

<xsl:template name="format-date">
    <xsl:param name="date"/>
    <!-- day -->
    <xsl:value-of select="substring($date, 9, 2)"/>
    <xsl:text>-</xsl:text>
    <!-- month -->
    <xsl:variable name="m" select="substring($date, 6, 2)"/>
    <xsl:value-of select="substring('JanFebMarAprMayJunJulAugSepOctNovDec', 3*($m - 1)+1, 3)"/>
    <xsl:text>-</xsl:text>
    <!-- year -->
    <xsl:value-of select="substring($date, 1, 4)"/>
</xsl:template>

In XSLT-1.0 you have to implement the transformation yourself - without the help of build-in functions.

So a solution could look like the following. It uses a data-island in the XSLT to map the month's names. I defined the tns namespace to be http://towelie.namespace.

The sample XML:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<root xmlns:tns="http://towelie.namespace">
    <tns:receivedDate>2017-06-27</tns:receivedDate>
</root>

The solution XSLT-1.0 stylesheet:

<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:tns="http://towelie.namespace" xmlns:month="http://month.val" version="1.0">
    <xsl:output method="text" />

    <!-- Data island -->
    <month:val>
        <mon>JAN</mon>
        <mon>FEB</mon>
        <mon>MAR</mon>
        <mon>APR</mon>
        <mon>MAI</mon>
        <mon>JUN</mon>
        <mon>JUL</mon>
        <mon>AUG</mon>
        <mon>SEP</mon>
        <mon>OCT</mon>
        <mon>NOV</mon>
        <mon>DEC</mon>
    </month:val>

    <xsl:template match="/root">
        <xsl:apply-templates select="tns:receivedDate" />
    </xsl:template>

    <xsl:template match="tns:receivedDate">
        <xsl:variable name="year"  select="substring-before(.,'-')" />
        <xsl:variable name="month" select="substring-before(substring-after(.,'-'),'-')" />
        <xsl:variable name="day"   select="substring-after(substring-after(.,'-'),'-')" />
        <xsl:value-of select="concat($day,'-',document('')/xsl:stylesheet/month:val/mon[number($month)]/text(),'-',$year)" />
    </xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

In this stylesheet the input date is dissected to three variables which are then recombined in the xsl:value-of applying an index to the data-island's mon elements.

The output:

27-JUN-2017

Final comment:
An important advantage of this approach is that you can define the month's names as you like - with different lengths in different languages - i.e. JAN, Jan, January, Janvier, Januar, Enero, ...

And the data-island could be replaced by external XML files. For example, one for each language.
