Pure ruby xml library
Parser / xml generator
sample usage:
require './xml'
root = Xml.parse_file('foo.xml')
# search for a subtag <bla some_attr="0">
if mytag = root.find('bla') { |tag| tag['some_attr'] == '0' }
# add a child node to bla
mytag << Xml::Tag.new('foo', { 'key' => 'value' })
# add a string
mytag << "lolz"
end
puts root
# <?xml version="1.0" encoding="us-ascii" ?><bla some_attr="0"><foo key="value></foo>lolz</bla>
Optional native parser:
if you need to handle large xml files, compile the C extension in ext/ (simply run make) and copy the generated .so in the same directory as xml.rb
