xml select

> Select from XML documents using XPATHs.

> Tip: use `xml elements` to display the XPATHs of an XML document.

Select all elements matching "XPATH1" and print the value of their sub-element "XPATH2":

xml select --template --match "{XPATH1}" --value-of "{XPATH2}" {path/to/input.xml|URI}

Match "XPATH1" and print the value of "XPATH2" as text with new-lines:

xml select --text --template --match "{XPATH1}" --value-of "{XPATH2}" --nl {path/to/input.xml|URI}

Count the elements of "XPATH1":

xml select --template --value-of "count({XPATH1})" {path/to/input.xml|URI}

Count all nodes in one or more XML documents:

xml select --text --template --inp-name --output " " --value-of "count(node())" --nl {path/to/input1.xml|URI} {path/to/input2.xml|URI}
