XML-Processor
=============

[](#xml-processor)

PHP XML-Processor based on XMLReader.

The [`XMLProcessor`](src/XmlProcessor.php) walks through the XML-file with the `\XMLReader` and fires events on each node of the `\XMLReader`. So its ease to process huge XML files with low memory usage.

Events
------

[](#events)

The following events are available:

EventXMLReader NodeType

----------

[](#how-to-use)

To process an XML file, you need to create a nodeProcessor class. It has to implement the [`NodeProcessorInterface`](src/NodeProcessor/NodeProcessorInterface.php).

Where you can define `NodeProcessorInterface::getSubscribedEvents` on which events you want to react.

For easier use, you can extend the [`AbstractNodeProcessor`](src/NodeProcessor/AbstractNodeProcessor.php) class and implement one of the following interfaces:

Interfacedescription[`OpenNodeProcessorInterface`](src/NodeProcessor/OpenNodeProcessorInterface.php)To react on opening tags[`CloseNodeProcessorInterface`](src/NodeProcessor/CloseNodeProcessorInterface.php)To react on closing tags[`TextNodeProcessorInterface`](src/NodeProcessor/TextNodeProcessorInterface.php)To react on text between tagsExample
-------

[](#example)

To extract all values of `` nodes of the following XML:

**file.xml**

```

    foo
    bar
    baz

```

Create a simple nodeProcessor class which collect all values of the `` nodes.

**OpenTestNodeProcessor.php**

```
use Netlogix\XmlProcessor\NodeProcessor\AbstractNodeProcessor;
use Netlogix\XmlProcessor\NodeProcessor\OpenNodeProcessorInterface;
use Netlogix\XmlProcessor\NodeProcessor\Context\OpenContext;

class OpenValueNodeProcessor extends AbstractNodeProcessor implements OpenNodeProcessorInterface
{
    const NODE_PATH = 'value';
    private $nodeValues = [];

    public function openElement(OpenContext $context)
    {
        $xml = $context->getXmlProcessorContext()->getXmlReader();
        $node = $xml->expand();
        $this->nodeValues[] = $node->nodeValue;
    }

    function getNodeValues(): array
    {
        return $this->nodeValues;
    }
}
```

Create a new instance of the [`XmlProcessor`](src/XmlProcessor.php) class and attach the new nodeProcessor.

```
require_once 'OpenTestNodeProcessor.php';

require_once 'vendor/autoload.php';

$valueNodeProcessor = new OpenValueNodeProcessor();
$processor = new XMLProcessor([$valueNodeProcessor]);
$processor->processFile('file.xml');

var_dump($valueNodeProcessor->getNodeValues());
```

**result:**

```
array(3) {
  [0]=>
  string(3) "foo"
  [1]=>
  string(3) "bar"
  [2]=>
  string(3) "baz"
}
```
