This package provides a very simple converter to convert an XML string to an array. No attributes support, no complex logic, just a plain and simple converter that just works.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

```
composer require ericmorand/xml-to-array
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

```
;

$array = $converter->convertXML($xml);
```

By running this code, `$array` would contain:

```
[
    'prop0' => null,
    'prop1' => 'foo',
    'prop2' => 'foo',
    'prop3' => [
        'prop0' => null,
        'prop1' => 'foo',
        'prop2' => 'foo'
    ]
]
```
