A useful class to generate valid XML from a PHP array.

## Installation

Run the following command in your project to get the class:

```

composer require sausin/xml-construct

```

## Usage with normal arrays

Usage is simple

### Verbose way:

```php

$xmlGen = new XmlConstruct('ROOT')

$string = $xmlGen->fromArray($array)->getDocument();

```

where `$array` is the PHP array from which you need the XML to be generated.

### Quick:

```php

(new XmlConstruct('ROOT'))->fromArray($f)->getDocument();

```

returns the XML string.

In both the above examples, `ROOT` is the root of the XML (i.e. the first element).

## Usage with arrays when attributes are needed in XML

If used like this:

```

$array = ['KEY|ATTR|VAL' => 'VALUE'];

return (new XmlConstruct('ROOT'))->fromArray($f)->getDocument();

```

It will result in the following XML

```xml

  VALUE

```

You can add as many attributes as you like and they will all be added to the element. Neat!
