Synopsis

   |<xsl:param

   |      </xsl:when>
   |      <xsl:otherwise>
   |         <xsl:message terminate="yes" select="'You must specify the $chunk-output-base-uri'"/>
   |      </xsl:otherwise>
   |   </xsl:choose>
   |</xsl:param>

Description

This parameter identifies the output directory where “chunks” will be stored. If the stylesheet is not producing chunked results (see Section 2.6, ““Chunked” output”), this parameter has no effect.

If the ext:cwd() extension function (see Section 2.5, “Extension functions”) is available, its value will be the default value for this parameter. If the extension isn’t available, you must provide a value for this parameter.

☝

Important

If you’re using the stylesheets from Maven, the static-base-uri() will be something like https://cdn.docbook.org/release/… and resolving the current working directory against that won’t be useful. It’s better in those cases to specify the parameter explicitly with a file: URI. (And note that it may need to be a file:/path URI, not a file:///path URI, in order to match correctly.)
