Go package that converts XML to JSON

This version has removed prefixes in front of arguments and contents on decoding xmls.

It also parses ints(64bit), floats(64 bit) and booleans. If the ints or floats has a leading 0, it is considered a string.

go get -u github.com/oisann/goxml2json

import github.com/oisann/goxml2json

Code example

  package main

  import (
  	"fmt"
  	"strings"

  	xj "github.com/oisann/goxml2json"
  )

  func main() {
  	// xml is an io.Reader
  	xml := strings.NewReader(`<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><hello>world</hello>`)
  	json, err := xj.Convert(xml)
  	if err != nil {
  		panic("That's embarrassing...")
  	}

  	fmt.Println(json.String())
  	// {"hello": "world"}
  }

Input

  <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
  <osm version="0.6" generator="CGImap 0.0.2">
   <bounds minlat="54.0889580" minlon="12.2487570" maxlat="54.0913900" maxlon="12.2524800"/>
   <foo>bar</foo>
   <data type="04" value="4"/>
  </osm>

Output

  {
    "osm": {
      "version": "0.6",
      "generator": "CGImap 0.0.2",
      "bounds": {
        "minlat": 54.0889580,
        "minlon": 12.2487570,
        "maxlat": 54.0913900,

      },

      }
    }
