'Pretty prints' an XML field. The function formats an XML field for improved readability. This can be an expensive operation.
It is recommended to apply
xml:prettyPrint() after filtering your data
at the end of the query. This prevents unnecessary formatting of
data that will be discarded.
Default behaviour is as follows:
If the field does not contain valid XML, the unmodified input value is stored in the output field.
If no field is specified, the @rawstring field will be formatted.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Default Value | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
as | string | optional[a] | The name of the field to store the output in. | |
field[b] | string | required | @rawstring | The name of the field to format. |
step | integer | optional[a] | 2 | The indentation in number of characters. |
strict | boolean | optional[a] | false | If set to true only valid XML input produce a value in the output field. By default invalid XML is copied to the output field unmodified. |
width | integer | optional[a] | 80 | The width (in number of characters) to fit the output input. |
[a] Optional parameters use their default value unless explicitly set. | ||||
