XMLDOM Build Status Coverage Status NPM version

A JavaScript implementation of W3C DOM for Node.js, Rhino and the browser. Fully compatible with W3C DOM level2; and some compatible with level3. Supports DOMParser and XMLSerializer interface such as in browser.

Install:

npm install xmldom

Example:

var DOMParser = require('xmldom').DOMParser;
var doc = new DOMParser().parseFromString(
    '<xml xmlns="a" xmlns:c="./lite">\n'+
        '\t<child>test</child>\n'+
        '\t<child></child>\n'+
        '\t<child/>\n'+
    '</xml>'
    ,'text/xml');
doc.documentElement.setAttribute('x','y');
doc.documentElement.setAttributeNS('./lite','c:x','y2');
var nsAttr = doc.documentElement.getAttributeNS('./lite','x')
console.info(nsAttr)
console.info(doc)

  • DOMParser:

    parseFromString(xmlsource,mimeType)
    
    • options extension by xmldom(not BOM standard!!)
    //added the options argument
    new DOMParser(options)
    
    //errorHandler is supported
    new DOMParser({
        /**
         * locator is always need for error position info
         */
        locator:{},
        /**
         * you can override the errorHandler for xml parser

        errorHandler:{warning:function(w){console.warn(w)},error:callback,fatalError:callback}
        //only callback model
