xml2csvInShell: An Awk repository from noark9

#xml2csv

Shell tool for simple xml parse. I need a tool to convert xml file to csv file simple, fast and easy to use and configure.So I create this tool for simple xml file parse.

usage

./xml2csv.sh

##Example

Edit awk.conf file to configure how program acts.

length(a)>4:test:table:a,b,c,{9},c(3,5)

This will parse a tag named test which have three child tags(a, b, c) in a xml file.

<item>
	<a>3</a>
	<b>4</b>
	<c>1234567890</c>
	<d>9</d>
</item>
<item>
	<a>5</a>
	<b>4</b>
	<c>abcdefghiu</c>
	<d>9</d>
</item>

table is output file name. File above will output like this:

5,6,abcdefghiu,9,cdefg

into a file named table.csv

length(a)>4 indicate that parse only a is greater then 4. You can use awk functions and also ||, && for complex condition.

{9} indicate that show 9 in the right place.

c(3,5) is substring c from 3 get 5 char.
