js2xmlparser 5.0.0

The js2xmlparser is a powerful Node.js module designed to parse JavaScript objects into XML. Primarily built for JSON-type objects, this tool is also capable of deciphering other JavaScript objects - such as Date and RegExp by leveraging their toString function. Additionally, unique XML constructs such as attributes, mixed content, and duplicate elements can also be parsed by js2xmlparser. It even supports Map and Set objects introduced in ECMAScript 2015 and also offers pretty-printing of XML outputs.

To work with js2xmlparser, you should start by installing it via npm. That can be achieved with the npm install command as follows:

npm install js2xmlparser

Once the installation is done, you can require the module and start using it in your script to convert your JavaScript objects into XML:

var js2xmlparser = require("js2xmlparser");

var obj = {
    "@": {
        type: "natural",
    },
    firstName: "John",
    lastName: "Smith",
    dateOfBirth: new Date(1964, 7, 26),
    //...
};

console.log(js2xmlparser.parse("person", obj));

The parse function provided by js2xmlparser accepts two parameters: the root node name and the object to parse into XML. The above code will transform your JavaScript object into a structured XML, making your data easily consumable for XML based systems or services.

The documentation for js2xmlparser, which provides a more in-depth guide on the package's functionalities, benefits, and usage is available on the author's website. The link for the documentation is here. Additionally, it's also possible to generate the documentation locally by using the npm run-script docs command:

npm run-script docs

It's important to note that a good understanding of the docs will facilitate an enhanced utilization of js2xmlparser in your development projects.
