A pure Rust XML parser and writer library with namespace support and streaming capabilities.
xml-rs is a pure Rust library for parsing and writing XML documents. It provides a safe, efficient implementation that handles XML 1.0 specifications with namespace support and streaming capabilities, enabling developers to process XML data in Rust applications.
Rust developers working with XML data, such as those building data processing pipelines, web services that consume or produce XML, or tools that need to parse configuration files or document formats.
Developers choose xml-rs for its pure Rust implementation with no external dependencies, ensuring memory safety and easy integration, along with streaming capabilities for handling large XML documents efficiently.

Open-Awesome is built by the community, for the community. Submit a project, suggest an awesome list, or help improve the catalog on GitHub.
No external dependencies or C bindings, ensuring memory safety and easy integration into Rust projects, as highlighted in the key features.
Event-driven parsing allows handling of large XML documents without loading them entirely into memory, suitable for data processing pipelines.
Full handling of XML namespaces with proper resolution and validation, making it reliable for complex XML documents.
Provides line and column information in errors, aiding in debugging XML parsing issues, as mentioned in the features.
Lacks support for common XML technologies like XPath or XSLT, which might be necessary for some applications requiring querying or transformation.
The project has moved to a new GitHub repository, indicating potential disruptions in maintenance, documentation updates, or community support.
The streaming parser requires more boilerplate code for simple tasks compared to DOM-based parsers, increasing initial development effort.
