Xml

Ultra naive Xml parser with Masala. No CDATA.

The objective is to bring a parser simple enough so that you can customize it with your needs.

Exemples

Simple one

Given

constresponse=tag().parse(Streams.ofString('<someTag x="y" ><a>Masala</a><b>Text</b>Lonely Text</someTag>'));

response.value will give:

{
"token": "TAG",
"tag": "someTag",
"attributes": [
{
"token": "ATTR",
"name": "x",
"value": "y"
}
],
"children": [
{
"token": "TAG",
"tag": "a",
"attributes": [],
"children": [
"Masala"
]
},
{
"token": "TAG",
"tag": "b",
"attributes": [],
"children": [
"Text"
]
},
"Lonely Text"
]
}

More complex

Given:

<xml>
Text
<r:simplef:a="1.0">Some value</r:simple>
<a></a>
Text
</xml>

value = xmlParser.val(xml) gives:

{
"token": "TAG",
"tag": "xml",
"attributes": [],
"children": [
"Text",
{
"token": "TAG",
"tag": "simple",
"namespace": "r",
"attributes": [
{
"namespace": "f",
"token": "ATTR",
"name": "a",
"value": "1.0"
}
],
"children": [
"Some value"
]
},
{
"token": "TAG",
"tag": "a",
"attributes": [],
"children": []
},
"Text"
]
}
