HELP! I would like to use and extend Cocoon 2 to perform transformation from an arbitrary format to another arbitrary format, with some complex transformation rules thrown in. I like the Generator - Transformer - Serializer approach of the pipeline pattern, and need to use SAX-based parsers for performance & have the possibility to use XSL/XSLT to do more simple transformation.
I have managed to get the build working and can invoke Cocoon via the command line. I have seen a number of people on the list asking why there are no examples of using Cocoon from the command line and they are all told to look at the run.bat / run.sh files. This tell you nothing about how to use Cocoon! What do I need to do to set up a transformation? Lets say I want to convert an HTML doc to text. How do I configure Cocoon to find the file and to use the HTMLGenerator, a proprietary Transformation class and a TextSerializer ???? Do I need to modify the cocoon.xconf file (this is loaded correctly) or create a sitemap.xmap file????? Maybe I am trying to use Cocoon the wrong way but unless I am told otherwise I will end up implementing a pipeline framework just because there are no simple examples! Can't someone post a Hello World example for the command line???
