Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'xml2csv'

Usage

Synopsis

$ xml2csv [-F sep] [--no-hedaer] [xml_file] [root_node] [params...]

Options

-F _sep_
  set _sep_ as a field delimiter (default ",")

--no-header
  Do not print header.
  Default header is generated from params.

xml_file
  path to XML file.

root_node
  Set XML node name.
  Expression's path are written relative to the _root_node_(see below.)

params
  type:Expression[,...]

  Describe node name, attribute, xpath, etc...
  Expression can be written with delimiter ",".

  _type_ are any of the following.

  node
    Describe node name.

  xpath
    Same with _node_.
    Describe explicitly that it is a XPath.

  attr
    Describe attribute.

  tag
    Describe any characters.
    You can use this when you add output CSV column that is not exist in XML.

  join
    Describe Expressions.
    Join Expressions with "_".

  pair
    Describe Expressions.
    Expressions arranged in pairs.

  with
    with:base_node:Expression[,...]
    You can short cut long Expression.

  with_order
    with:Expression[,...]
    Add Expression's order from parent element as output CSV's first column.

Todo

  • Improve poor English.
  • Refactoring.
  • Should reconsider the raison d'etre of join, pair, with. (They are still exist for historical reasons.)
