RustyXML
========

[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/Florob/RustyXML.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/Florob/RustyXML)

[Documentation](https://docs.babelmonkeys.de/RustyXML/xml)

RustyXML is a namespace aware XML parser written in Rust.
Right now it provides a basic SAX-like API, and an ElementBuilder based on that.

The parser itself is derived from OFXMLParser as found in ObjFW
.

The current limitations are:
* Incomplete error checking
* Unstable API

The Minimal Supported Rust Version for this crate is Rust 1.40.0.

Examples
--------
Parse a string into an `Element` struct:
```rust
use xml::Element;

let elem: Option = "".parse();
```

Get events from parsing string data:
```rust
use xml::{Event, Parser};

// Create a new Parser
let mut p = Parser::new();

// Feed data to be parsed
p.feed_str("");

// Get events for the fed data
for event in p {
match event.unwrap() {
Event::ElementStart(tag) => println!("<{}>", tag.name),
Event::ElementEnd(tag) => println!("{}>", tag.name),
_ => ()
}
}
```

This should print:
```


```

Build `Element`s from `Parser` `Event`s:
```rust
use xml::{Parser, ElementBuilder};

let mut p = xml::Parser::new();
let mut e = xml::ElementBuilder::new();

p.feed_str("");
for elem in p.filter_map(|x| e.handle_event(x)) {
match elem {
Ok(e) => println!("{}", e),
Err(e) => println!("{}", e),
}
}
```

Build `Element`s by hand:
```rust
let mut reply = xml::Element::new("iq".into(), Some("jabber:client".into()),
vec![("type".into(), None, "error".into()),
("id".into(), None, "42".into())]);
reply.tag(xml::Element::new("error".into(), Some("jabber:client".into()),
vec![("type".into(), None, "cancel".into())]))
.tag_stay(xml::Element::new("forbidden".into(),
Some("urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:xmpp-stanzas".into()),
vec![]))
.tag(xml::Element::new("text".into(),
Some("urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:xmpp-stanzas".into()),
vec![]))
.text("Permission denied".into());
```
Result (some whitespace added for readability):
```xml



Permission denied

```

Attribute Order
---------------

By default the order of attributes is not tracked. Therefore during serialization and iteration
their order will be random. This can be changed by enabling the `ordered_attrs` feature.
With this feature enabled the order attributes were encountered while parsing,
or added to an `Element` will be preserved.
