xml-lite
Maintaining XML in pure javascript (IN BOTH NODE.JS & BROWSERS) Homepage
Maintaining?
Converting
Editing/Traversing
XMLLite.findChildNode(doc, query);
XMLLite.findChildNodes(doc, query);
XMLLite.findOrCreateChildNode(doc, query);
XMLLite.removeChildNode(doc, query);
XMLLite.eachChildNode(doc, query, callback);
// ...
Formatting
XMLLite.beautify(xml, indent);
XMLLite.uglify(xml, preserveComments);
XMLLite.sanitize(xml, reverse);
// ...
Actually, you can get the js object from XMLLite.xml2js(xml), do whatever you want, and convert it back to xml again with XMLLite.js2xml(obj).
Why?
- A reasonable need for usage in both Node.js and Browsers
- A more reasonable need to use native APIs(DOMParser/XMLSerializer) to speed up the maintaining process and keep the library thin
Why xml-lite?
- It works exactly the same in both Node.js and Browsers
- The browser version is supper light-weight(dist/xml-lite.js)
- Convenient APIs for converting between xml/js/json/DOM, and lots of helpers to maintain the data structures
- Super fast. it takes less than 30ms to convert an xml document with over 1,000 nodes into a js object
