Badgerhash

Convert XML to a Ruby Hash using the BadgerFish convention: http://badgerfish.ning.com/

The resulting Hash can be easily converted to JSON using a JSON library.

The reference implementation of the generators use REXML for parsing the given XML. REXML is included in the Ruby Standard Library so no depencies are introduced. Nevertheless, this library provides interfaces that allow using alternate parsers if performance is a concern.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'badgerhash'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install badgerhash

require "badgerhash"
require "stringio"

xml = StringIO.new("<alice>bob</alice>")
xml_stream =  Badgerhash::XmlStream.create(xml)

puts xml_stream.to_badgerfish.inspect
