ELAN Parser

A simple parsing library for the ELAN NRW XML files.
Consumed by the Fruchtfolge model.

Installation



npm install elan-parser





Usage

Standalone usage

js

const parser = require('elan-parser')

const { readFileSync } = require('fs')



try {

  const xml = readFileSync('path/to/xml')

  const gml = readFileSync('path/to/gml')

  const data = elan.join(elan.parseXML(xml), elan.parseGML(gml))

  

  // do something with the data (e.g. store in Database)

} catch (e) {

  throw new Error(e)

}





In combination with the elan-api

js

const elanGet = require('elan-api');

const parser = require('elan-parser')



async function getLatestInvekosData(farmNo, pass) {

  const xml = await elanGet(farmNo, pass)

  const gml = await elanGet(farmNo, pass, {type: 'Geometrien'})

  

    return parser.join(parser.parseXML(xml), parser.parseGML(gml))

}





Testing

Place your testing XML files in the

test/data

 directory. 

Upon first run, uncomment the following line in

test/test.js

js

fs.writeFileSync(

test/results/${fileName}.json

,JSON.stringify(data))



and comment out the following lines. Inspect the resulting

.json files for correctness, then revert test/test.js

 to its original state. 

Once the setup has been completed, you can

npm test

 as always.
