# node-xml-slicer
Simple xml to js transformer for node-expat - fastest XML parser for Node.js
It's designed to be able to process large XML files with maximum speed and minimum RAM usage.
## Install
Install locally
```
npm install node-xml-slicer
```
## Quick start
Following simple snippet parses given XML string using `node-expat` parser and transforms it using 2 separate Slicers.
You can combine as many Slicers as you want, extracting different parts of XML in one go.
```javascript
var expat = require('node-expat');
var Slicer = require('node-xml-slicer');
var parser = expat.createParser();
var rootSlicer = new Slicer(parser);
var itemSlicer = new Slicer(parser, '/root/items/item');
parser.write('value 1value 2');
console.log('%j', rootSlicer.result);
console.log();
console.log('%j', itemSlicer.result);
```
Output of this code would be:
```json
{
"root": {
"items": {
"item": [
{
"#": "value 1",
"id":"1"
},
"value 2"
]
}
}
}
{
"item": [
{
"#": "value 1",
"id":"1"
},
"value 2"
]
}
```
## API
* **new Slicer(parser, [rootPath])** - creates new Slicer object for given `node-expat` parser with optional `rootPath`.
* **slicer.result** - returns resulting JavaScript object
* **slicer.errors** - returns array of parsing errors or `null` if no errors occurred
