Convert XML to JSON with NodeJS

Question

I'm trying to convert the following xml to json, thereby I need to get a mapping to the TS-tc-dt

Here is the xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<TestScenario>
   <TestSuite name="TS_EdgeHome">
      <TestCaseName name="tc_Login">dt_EdgeCaseHome,dt_EdgeCaseRoute</TestCaseName>
      <TestCaseName name="tc_Logout">dt_EdgeCaseRoute</TestCaseName>
   </TestSuite>
   <TestSuite name="TS_EdgePanel">
      <TestCaseName name="tc_AddContract">dt_EdgeCaseHome,dt_EdgeCaseSpectrum</TestCaseName>
   </TestSuite>
      <TestSuite name="TS_EdgeRoute">
      <TestCaseName name="tc_VerifyContract">dt_EdgeCaseRoute</TestCaseName>
      <TestCaseName name="tc_Payment">dt_EdgeCaseRoute</TestCaseName>
   </TestSuite>
   <TestSuite name="TS_EdgeSpectrum">
      <TestCaseName name="tc_ClientFeedback">dt_EdgeCaseSpectrum</TestCaseName>
   </TestSuite>
</TestScenario>

How can I achieve this in NodeJS?

Answer 1

I've used xml-js - npm to get the desired result.

First of all I've installed xml-js via npm install xml-js

Then used the below code to get the output in json format

var convert = require('xml-js');
var xml = require('fs').readFileSync('./testscenario.xml', 'utf8');

var result = convert.xml2json(xml, {compact: true, spaces: 4});
console.log(result);

You can use xml2json npm for converting your xml in to json. xml2json.

Step 1:- Install package in you project

npm install xml2json

Step 2:- You can use that package and convert your xml to json

let xmlParser = require('xml2json');
let xmlString = `<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<TestScenario>
   <TestSuite name="TS_EdgeHome">
      <TestCaseName name="tc_Login">dt_EdgeCaseHome,dt_EdgeCaseRoute</TestCaseName>
      <TestCaseName name="tc_Logout">dt_EdgeCaseRoute</TestCaseName>
   </TestSuite>
   <TestSuite name="TS_EdgePanel">
      <TestCaseName name="tc_AddContract">dt_EdgeCaseHome,dt_EdgeCaseSpectrum</TestCaseName>
   </TestSuite>
      <TestSuite name="TS_EdgeRoute">
      <TestCaseName name="tc_VerifyContract">dt_EdgeCaseRoute</TestCaseName>
      <TestCaseName name="tc_Payment">dt_EdgeCaseRoute</TestCaseName>
   </TestSuite>
   <TestSuite name="TS_EdgeSpectrum">
      <TestCaseName name="tc_ClientFeedback">dt_EdgeCaseSpectrum</TestCaseName>
   </TestSuite>
</TestScenario>`;

console.log('JSON output', xmlParser.toJson(xmlString));

Hope this might be helps to you.
