xml2js
A simple bi-directional XML to JavaScript object converter for Node.js, built on sax-js and xmlbuilder-js.
What is xml2js?
xml2js is a Node.js library that converts XML data into JavaScript objects and can also serialize JavaScript objects back into XML. It solves the problem of parsing and generating XML in a JavaScript-friendly way without needing complex C-based parsers or a full DOM implementation. The library provides both callback and promise-based APIs with extensive configuration options for handling attributes, namespaces, and custom processing.
Node.js developers who need to parse or generate XML data in their applications, such as those working with web services, APIs, configuration files, or data interchange formats that use XML.
Developers choose xml2js because it offers a simple, bi-directional conversion between XML and JavaScript objects with minimal setup, extensive customization through options and processors, and a lightweight alternative to full DOM parsers like JSDom.
