Simple JavaScript Object to XML string converter.
Install via npm, which will download json2xml
and all of its dependencies.
npm install json2xml
While the name of the repo is json2xml
, it is really pojo2xml
, since you will need to run JSON.parse
on the JSON data prior to converting.
var fs = require('fs');
var json2xml = require('json2xml');
fs.readFile('data.json', 'utf8', function read (err, data) {
if (err) console.log(err);
fs.writeFile('data.xml', json2xml(JSON.parse(JSON.stringify(data))));
});
// none:
json2xml({ a: 1 });
//<a>1</a>
// empty node:
json2xml({ a: '' });
//<a/>
// add header:
json2xml({ a: 1 }, { header: true });
//<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><a>1</a>
// add node attributes:
json2xml({ a: 1, attr: { b: 2, c: 3 } }, { attributes_key: 'attr' });
// <a b="2" c="3" >1</a>
// arrays:
json2xml([ { a: 1 }, { b: 2 } ]);
//'<a>1</a><b>2</b>
json2xml({ 'items': [ { item: 1 }, { item: 2 } ] });
//'<items><item>1</item><item>2</item></items>'
