The class is designed to convert an XML document into a PHP array and vice versa

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

[](#installation)

The package could be installed with composer:

```
composer require rufov/converter-array-xml

```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

```
use RufovS\ConverterArrayXML\ConverterArrayXML;

$xml =
        Lightsaber

        Sauron
        Evil Eye

_XML;

$result = ConverterArrayXML::xmlToArr($xml);
```

After running this piece of code `$result` will contain:

```
$result = [
    'root' => [
        '_attributes' => [
                'xmlns:xs=' => 'http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema',
                'xmlns:xsi' => 'http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance'
        ],
        'GoodGuy' => [
             '_attributes' => [
                'attr1' => 'value'
            ],
            'name' => [
                '_cdata' => 'Luke Skywalker'
            ],
            'weapon' => 'Lightsaber'
        ],
        'BadGuy' => [
            'name' => 'Sauron',
            'weapon' => 'Evil Eye'
        ]
    ]
];
```

You can also convert an array to xml. This is done as follows:

```
use RufovS\ConverterArrayXML\ConverterArrayXML;

$array = [
    'root' => [
        '_attributes' => [
                'xmlns:xs=' => 'http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema',
                'xmlns:xsi' => 'http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance'
        ],
        'GoodGuy' => [
             '_attributes' => [
                'attr1' => 'value'
            ],
            'name' => [
                '_cdata' => 'Luke Skywalker'
            ],
            'weapon' => 'Lightsaber'
        ],
        'BadGuy' => [
            'name' => 'Sauron',
            'weapon' => 'Evil Eye'
        ]
    ]
];

$result = ConverterArrayXML::arrayToXml($array);
```

At the end you will get the following xml document.

```

        Luke Skywalker]]>
        Lightsaber

        Sauron
        Evil Eye

```
