dom2XElement

Code:

import {dom2XElement} from "xml-json-api";

const xml = "<xml>one does not <b>simply</b> convert xml</xml>";
const xmlDocument = new window.DOMParser().parseFromString(xml, "application/xml");
const root = xmlDocument.children.item(0);
const result = dom2XElement(root);

console.log(JSON.stringify(result, null, 2));

         {

           "text": "simply"
         }
       ],
