simplexrd
=========

[](#simplexrd)

SimpleXRD is an extraordinarily simple parser for [XRD documents](http://docs.oasis-open.org/xri/xrd/v1.0/xrd-1.0.html) written in PHP 5.

This XRD parser supports all the features of XRD which can be translated into its JSON representation under [RFC 6415](http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6415). This means that the parser does not support extensibility under the XRD specification.

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

Using the parser is straightforward. Assuming the XRD code has been loaded into a variable called `$xml`. Then the code is simply

```
$parser = new SimpleXRD();
$parser->load($xml);
$jrd = $parser->parse();
$parser->free();
```

The JSON representation can then be obtained by using `json_encode($jrd)`.

Licensing
---------

[](#licensing)

Licensing information for SimpleXRD can be found in the file COPYING.txt.
