Node.js pom.xml Parser
=======

     !License

Parsing Java's pom.xml and properly returning the json object, including attributes and values.


Motivation
========

* Your enterprise decided to move production code written in Java to Node.js
* Your enterprise uses a centralized Nexus repository where your Java project uses pom.xml to manage app packaging.
* Your enterprise still plans to use Nexus repository to package Node.js applications.
* Your enterprise engineers want an API to retrieve information from the pom.xml file from those Node.js apps.

Installation
======

``
npm install --save pom-parser
`
Features
======

* Reads any pom.xml.
* All xml elements are placed into properties.
* All xml element attributes are merged into the parent element.
* Both the xml string and the parsed object are returned.
* You can provide parsing options.

Use
=====

* Printing the object

`js
var pomParser = require("pom-parser");
// The required options, including the filePath.
// Other parsing options from https://github.com/Leonidas-from-XIV/node-xml2js#options
var opts = {
filePath: __dirname + "/pom.xml", // The path to a pom file
};
// Parse the pom based on a path
pomParser.parse(opts, function(err, pomResponse) {
if (err) {
console.log("ERROR: " + err);
process.exit(1);
}

// The original pom xml that was loaded is provided.
console.log("XML: " + pomResponse.pomXml);
// The parsed pom pbject.
console.log("OBJECT: " + JSON.stringify(pomResponse.pomObject));
});
`
It should print the follow object with the following properties:

* '_' represents the text value of an element with attributes and text values.
