`usage
the simple tag object
XML tags are represented by a simple object with an outer and inner property.
The "outer" property is the text string that completely encompasses the tag, equivalent to an HTML element's "outerHTML".
The "inner" property represents the sub-parts of the tag. It is similar to an HTML element's "textContent".
Here's an example of a tag:
javascript
{
outer: "PIXEL ",
inner: "PIXEL"
}
`get attribute
javascript
const getAttribute = require("xml-utils/get-attribute.js");
const xml = ;
const key = getAttribute(xml, "key");
// key is "INTERLEAVE"
`find one tag by name
javascript
const findTagByName = require("xml-utils/find-tag-by-name.js");const xml =
const tag = findTagByName(xml, "MDI");
tag is
javascript
{
outer: "PIXEL ",
inner: "PIXEL"
}
`
find multiple tags with the same name
javascript
const findTagsByName = require("xml-utils/find-tags-by-name.js");
const xml = ;
const tags = findTagsByName(xml, "MDI");
// tags is an array of tags
`
find one tag by path
javascript
const findTagByPath = require("xml-utils/find-tag-by-path.js");
const xml = ;
const tag = findTagByPath(xml, ["gmd:RS_Identifier", "gmd:code", "gco:CharacterString"]);
`find multiple tags by path
To get an array of tags that follow a path:
javascript
const findTagsByPath = require("xml-utils/find-tags-by-path.js");
const tags = findTagsByPath(xml, ["Metadata", "MDI"]);
// tags is an array of tags// find description for 10th tag in list
const tags = findTagsByPath(iso, [
{ name: "gmd:onLine", index: 9 }, // using zero-based index
"gmd:description",
"gco:CharacterString"
]);
`remove comments
javascript
const removeComments = require("xml-utils/remove-comments.js");
const xml = ;
removeComments(xml);
"\n \n";
`remove tags by name
js
const removeTagsByName = require("xml-utils/remove-tags-by-name.js");const xml = "
- A
- B
";
removeTagsByName(xml, "li")
"
"
