As long as you want to run a singe, standalone XSLT against a single,
standalone XML with Saxon HE 12, you can do it online in the browser:

Hi Folks,

Suppose you create an XSLT program along with an input XML file. You get
an XSLT processor, install the appropriate version of Java, and get
everything running on your computer. Now suppose you want to run that
same XSLT program on another computer. Once again, you need to get the
XSLT processor and the appropriate Java installed there. In other words,
everywhere you want the XSLT program to run, you need to configure its
environment.

This is what I call the environment problem.

Docker lets you avoid all that. Docker packages up the environment needed
to run the XSLT programbpackages the XSLT program together with
everything it needsbso it runs consistently anywhere.

For example, I wrote an XSLT program. To get it running I downloaded the
latest Home Edition of Saxon, saxon-he-12.9.jar. I installed Java 17,
OpenJDK Runtime Environment Temurin-17.0.18+8. When I ran my XSLT
program, I got an error saying that some resolver jar files were missing:
xmlresolver-5.3.3.jar and xmlresolver-5.3.3-data.jar.

I learned that this was the complete environment I needed to run my XSLT
program:

  * Java 17 runtime (OpenJDK Temurin-17.0.18+8)

  * Books.xml (input XML file)

  * Books-Summary.xsl (XSLT program)

  * saxon-he-12.9.jar (XSLT processor)

  * lib/

    * xmlresolver-5.3.3.jar

    * xmlresolver-5.3.3-data.jar

  * the command used to run the transformation
    java -cp "saxon-he-12.9.jar;lib/*" net.sf.saxon.Transform
    -s:Books.xml -xsl:Books-Summary.xsl -o:Books-Summary.xml

In order for another computer to run my XSLT program, that computer would
need to match my environment. Docker lets you package that environment so
you do not have to recreate it manually on every machine.

Important: Docker does not run XSLT directly. Docker runs a container.
Inside the container, Java runs. Java runs Saxon. Saxon runs the XSLT
program.

Below is a detailed, step-by-step guide showing exactly how to put your
XSLT program into Docker and run it.
