goxpp

The goxpp library is an XML parser library that is loosely based on the Java XMLPullParser. This library allows you to easily parse arbitrary XML content using a pull parser. You can think of goxpp as a lightweight wrapper around Go's XML Decoder that provides a set of functions that make it easier to parse XML content than using the raw decoder itself.

Overview

To begin parsing a XML document using goxpp you must pass it an io.Reader object for your document:

file, err := os.Open("path/file.xml")
parser := xpp.NewXMLPullParser(file, false, charset.NewReader)

The goxpp library decodes documents into a series of token objects:

Token Name
StartDocument
EndDocument
StartTag
EndTag
Text
Comment
ProcessingInstruction
Directive
IgnorableWhitespace

You will always start at the StartDocument token and can use the following functions to walk through a document:

Function Name	Description
Next()	Advance to the next Text, StartTag, EndTag, EndDocument token. Note: skips Comment, Directive and ProcessingInstruction
NextToken()	Advance to the next token regardless of type.
NextText()	Advance to the next Text token.
Skip()	Skip the next token.
DecodeElement(v interface{})	Decode an entire element from the current tag into a struct. Note: must be at a StartTag token
