libsgl_xml

Rust library that represents XML as a browsable DOM

It has same logic, as C++ version

Building

[dependencies]
libsgl_xml = { path = "libsgl_xml", version = "*"}

Using

extern crate libsgl_xml;

use std::path::Path;

use libsgl_xml::{XmlItem, XmlItemRc};
use libsgl_xml::XmlDom;

fn main() {
    // Load from xml file.
    match XmlDom::open(Path::new("./tests/test.xml")) {
        Ok(root) => {
            // Print it.
            println!("test.xml starts with \"{}\" element :\n{}\n----------",
                     XmlItem::get_name(root.clone()),
                     XmlItem::as_string(root.clone()));

            // Get array of Root's sub-nodes and selet first item.
            // All nodes, including first one, are Counted References, so simply clone() them everywhere.
            let first_node_of_root: XmlItemRc = XmlItem::get_nodes(root.clone())[0].clone();

            // Attach another node with attribute to "first_node_of_root".
            let new_node = XmlItem::add_node(first_node_of_root.clone(),
                                             XmlItem::new("YetAnotherNode".to_string()));
            XmlItem::set_attribute(new_node.clone(), "ID".to_string(), "42".to_string());

            // Save result to another XML file.
            if let Err(val) = XmlDom::save_file(root.clone(), Path::new("./tests/result.xml")) {
                // Support error messages.
                println!("Error: \"{}\"", val);
            } else {
                println!("Saved result.xml :\n{}\n----------",
                         XmlItem::as_string(root.clone()));
            }

            // You may clean memory manually.
            XmlItem::clean(root.clone());
        }
        Err(val) => {
            // Support error messages.
            println!("Error: \"{}\"", val);
        }
    };
}

Output:

test.xml starts with "root" element :
<root a="b" c="d">
	<node_1.1>
		<node_2.1/>
	</node_1.1>
	<node_1.2>
		<node_2.2/>
	</node_1.2>
</root>
----------
Saved result.xml :
<root a="b" c="d">
	<node_1.1>
		<node_2.1/>
		<YetAnotherNode ID="42"/>
	</node_1.1>
	<node_1.2>
		<node_2.2/>
	</node_1.2>
</root>
