Simple SAX-based XML2JSON Parser.

It does not parse the following elements:

• CDATA sections
• Processing instructions
• XML declarations
• Entity declarations
• Comments

Installation

npm install xml2json

Usage

var parser = require('xml2json');

var xml = "<foo>bar</foo>";
var json = parser.toJson(xml); //returns an string containing the json structure by default
console.log(json);

• if you want to get the Javascript object then you might want to invoke parser.toJson(xml, {object: true});
• if you want a reversible json to xml then you should use parser.toJson(xml, {reversible: true});
• if you want to override the default "$t" key name for a node's text value, specify the textNodeKey option. e.g., parser.toJson(xml, {textNodeKey: "text"})
• if you want to prevent xml node attributes from appearing in the json, specify attributes: false. e.g., parser.toJson(xml, {attributes: false}). The default behavior is attributes: true.
