CLVIII. XMLReader functions

简介

The XMLReader extension is an XML Pull parser. The reader acts as a cursor going forward on the document stream and stopping at each node on the way.

安装

The XMLReader extension is available in PECL for PHP 5.0 and is included in PHP 5.1 by default. It and can be enabled by adding the argument --with--xmlreader to your configure line. The libxml extension is required.

Example, as requested, with nested nodes.



<?php

ob_start();

?>

<root>

    <folder>

        <name>folder A</name>

        <files>

            <file>

                <name>Afile 1</name>

            </file>

            <file>

                <name>Afile 2</name>

            </file>

        </files>

    </folder>

    <folder>

        <name>folder B</name>

        <files>

            <file>

                <name>Bfile 1</name>

            </file>

            <file>

                <name>Bfile 2</name>

            </file>

        </files>

    </folder>

</root>

<?php

$xmldata = ob_get_contents();

ob_end_clean();



$xml = new XMLReader();

$xml->XML($xmldata);



$data = array();



while ($xml->read())

{

    while($xml->depth<=2    && $xml->nodeType==1)

        $xml->read();

    if ($xml->nodeType==3 && $xml->depth==3) // NodeType 3 : Text Element

    {

        $strFolderName = $xml->value;

        $data[$strFolderName]=array();

        while($xml->depth<=3)

            $xml->read();

        while($xml->depth>=3)

        {

            //xdump();

            if ($xml->nodeType==3)

                $data[$strFolderName][] = $xml->value;

            $xml->read();

        }

    }

}

print_r($data);

echo "\n";

?>



Output :

Array

(

    [folder A] => Array

        (

            [0] => Afile 1

            [1] => Afile 2

        )



    [folder B] => Array

        (

            [0] => Bfile 1

            [1] => Bfile 2

        )



)

DTD Validation



Parser properties can be set using:



  $xml_reader->setParserProperty(XMLReader::CONSTANT_NAME, BoolenValue);



The constant setting in the xmlreader_validatedtd.php example that comes

with the xmlread package results in an error.

Here is how I got it to work...



<?php

$indent = 5; /* Number of spaces to indent per level */



$xml = new XMLReader();

$xml->open("dtdexample.xml");

// CHANGED NEXT TWO LINES TO REMOVE ERROR

// FROM: $xml->setParserProperty(XMLREADER_LOADDTD, TRUE);

$xml->setParserProperty(XMLReader::LOADDTD,  TRUE); 

$xml->setParserProperty(XMLReader::VALIDATE, TRUE);

while($xml->read()) {

    /* Print node name indenting it based on depth and $indent var */

    print str_repeat(" ", $xml->depth * $indent).$xml->name."\n";

    if ($xml->hasAttributes) {

        $attCount = $xml->attributeCount;

        print str_repeat(" ", $xml->depth * $indent)." Number of Attributes: ".$xml->attributeCount."\n";

    }

}

print "\n\nValid:\n";

var_dump($xml->isValid());

?>

Some more documentation (i.e. examples) would be nice :-)



This is how I read some mysql parameters in an xml file:



<?php

    $xml = new XMLReader();

    $xml->open("config.xml");

    $xml->setParserProperty(2,true); // This seems a little unclear to me - but it worked :)



    while ($xml->read()) {

        switch ($xml->name) {

        case "mysql_host":

            $xml->read();

            $conf["mysql_host"] = $xml->value;

            $xml->read();

            break;

        case "mysql_username":

            $xml->read();

            $conf["mysql_user"] = $xml->value;

            $xml->read();

            break;

        case "mysql_password":

            $xml->read();

            $conf["mysql_pass"] = $xml->value;

            $xml->read();

            break;

        case "mysql_database":

            $xml->read();

            $conf["mysql_db"] = $xml->value;

            $xml->read();

            break;

        }

    }



    $xml->close();

?>



The XML file used:

<?xml version='1.0'?>

<MySQL_INIT>

   <mysql_host>localhost</mysql_host>

   <mysql_database>db_database</mysql_database>

   <mysql_username>root</mysql_username>

   <mysql_password>password</mysql_password>

</MySQL_INIT>

Simple function I used while playing around with XMLReader.



<?php

function dump_xmlreader($o) {

    $node_types = array (

        0=>"No node type",

        1=>"Start element",

        2=>"Attribute node",

        3=>"Text node",

        4=>"CDATA node",

        5=>"Entity Reference node",

        6=>"Entity Declaration node",

        7=>"Processing Instruction node",

        8=>"Comment node",

        9=>"Document node",

        10=>"Document Type node",

        11=>"Document Fragment node",

        12=>"Notation node",

        13=>"Whitespace node",

        14=>"Significant Whitespace node",

        15=>"End Element",

        16=>"End Entity",

        17=>"XML Declaration node"

    );



    echo "attributeCount = " . $o->attributeCount . "\n";

    echo "baseURI = " . $o->baseURI . "\n";

    echo "depth = " . $o->depth . "\n";

    echo "hasAttributes = " . ( $o->hasAttributes ? 'TRUE' : 'FALSE' ) . "\n";

    echo "hasValue = " . ( $o->hasValue ? 'TRUE' : 'FALSE' ) . "\n";

    echo "isDefault = " . ( $o->isDefault ? 'TRUE' : 'FALSE' ) . "\n";

    echo "isEmptyElement = " . ( @$o->isEmptyElement ? 'TRUE' : 'FALSE' ) . "\n";

    echo "localName = " . $o->localName . "\n";

    echo "name = " . $o->name . "\n";

    echo "namespaceURI = " . $o->namespaceURI . "\n";

    echo "nodeType = " . $o->nodeType . ' - ' . $node_types[$o->nodeType] . "\n";

    echo "prefix = " . $o->prefix . "\n";

    echo "value = " . $o->value . "\n";

    echo "xmlLang = " . $o->xmlLang . "\n";
