xml_parse

(PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7, PHP 8)

xml_parseStart parsing an XML document

Descrição

xml_parse(XMLParser $parser, string $data, bool $is_final = false): int

xml_parse() parses an XML document. The handlers for the configured events are called as many times as necessary.

Parâmetros

parser

A reference to the XML parser to use.

data

Chunk of data to parse. A document may be parsed piece-wise by calling xml_parse() several times with new data, as long as the is_final parameter is set and true when the last data is parsed.

is_final

If set and true, data is the last piece of data sent in this parse.

Valor Retornado

Returns 1 on success or 0 on failure.

For unsuccessful parses, error information can be retrieved with xml_get_error_code(), xml_error_string(), xml_get_current_line_number(), xml_get_current_column_number() and xml_get_current_byte_index().

Nota:

Some errors (such as entity errors) are reported at the end of the data, thus only if is_final is set and true.

Registro de Alterações

Versão Descrição
8.0.0 O parâmetro parser agora espera uma instância de XMLParser; anteriormente, um resource xml válido era esperado.

Exemplos

Exemplo #1 Chunked parsing of large XML documents

This example shows how large XML documents can be read and parsed in chunks, so that it not necessary to keep the whole document in memory. Error handling is omitted for brevity.

<?php
$stream
= fopen('large.xml', 'r');
$parser = xml_parser_create();
// set up the handlers here
while (($data = fread($stream, 16384))) {
xml_parse($parser, $data); // parse the current chunk
}
xml_parse($parser, '', true); // finalize parsing
xml_parser_free($parser);
fclose($stream);

Instead of passing a URL, we can pass the XML content to this class (either you
want to use CURL, Socks or fopen to retrieve it first) and instead of using
array, I'm using separator '|' to identify which data to get (in order to make
it short to retrieve a complex XML data). Here is my class with built-in fopen
which you can pass URL or you can pass the content instead :

p/s : thanks to this great help page.

<?php

class xx_xml {

// XML parser variables
var $parser;
var
$name;
var
$attr;
var
$data = array();
var
$stack = array();
var
$keys;
var
$path;

// either you pass url atau contents.
// Use 'url' or 'contents' for the parameter
var $type;

// function with the default parameter value
function xx_xml($url='http://www.example.com', $type='url') {
$this->type = $type;
$this->url = $url;
$this->parse();
}

// parse XML data
function parse()
{
$data = '';
$this->parser = xml_parser_create();
xml_set_object($this->parser, $this);
xml_set_element_handler($this->parser, 'startXML', 'endXML');
xml_set_character_data_handler($this->parser, 'charXML');

xml_parser_set_option($this->parser, XML_OPTION_CASE_FOLDING, false);

if (
$this->type == 'url') {
// if use type = 'url' now we open the XML with fopen

if (!($fp = @fopen($this->url, 'rb'))) {
$this->error("Cannot open {$this->url}");
}

while ((
$data = fread($fp, 8192))) {
if (!
xml_parse($this->parser, $data, feof($fp))) {
$this->error(sprintf('XML error at line %d column %d',
xml_get_current_line_number($this->parser),
xml_get_current_column_number($this->parser)));
}
}
} else if (
$this->type == 'contents') {
// Now we can pass the contents, maybe if you want
// to use CURL, SOCK or other method.
$lines = explode("\n",$this->url);
foreach (
$lines as $val) {
if (
trim($val) == '')
continue;
$data = $val . "\n";
if (!
xml_parse($this->parser, $data)) {
$this->error(sprintf('XML error at line %d column %d',
xml_get_current_line_number($this->parser),
xml_get_current_column_number($this->parser)));
}
}
}
}

function
startXML($parser, $name, $attr) {
$this->stack[$name] = array();
$keys = '';
$total = count($this->stack)-1;
$i=0;
foreach (
$this->stack as $key => $val) {
if (
count($this->stack) > 1) {
if (
$total == $i)
$keys .= $key;
else
$keys .= $key . '|'; // The saparator
}
else
$keys .= $key;
$i++;
}
if (
array_key_exists($keys, $this->data)) {
$this->data[$keys][] = $attr;
} else
$this->data[$keys] = $attr;
$this->keys = $keys;
}

function
endXML($parser, $name) {
end($this->stack);
if (
key($this->stack) == $name)
array_pop($this->stack);
}

function
charXML($parser, $data) {
if (
trim($data) != '')
$this->data[$this->keys]['data'][] = trim(str_replace("\n", '', $data));
}

function
error($msg) {
echo
"<div align=\"center\">
<font color=\"red\"><b>Error:
$msg</b></font>
</div>"
;
exit();
}
}

?>

And example of retrieving XML data:
p/s: example use to retrieve weather

<?php
include_once "xx_xml.class.php";

// Im using simple curl (the original is in class) to get the contents

$pageurl = "http://xml.weather.yahoo.com/forecastrss?p=MYXX0008&u=c";
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $pageurl );
$thecontents = curl_exec ( $ch );
curl_close($ch);

// We want to pass only a ready XML content instead of URL
// But if you want to use URL , skip the curl functions above and use this
// $xx4 = new xx_xml("url here",'url');

$xx4 = new xx_xml($thecontents,'contents');
// As you can see, we use saparator '|' instead of long array
$Code = $xx4->data ['rss|channel|item|yweather:condition']['code'] ;
$Celcius = $xx4->data ['rss|channel|item|yweather:condition']['temp'] ;
$Text = $xx4->data ['rss|channel|item|yweather:condition']['text'] ;
$Cityname = $xx4->data ['rss|channel|yweather:location']['city'] ;

?>

Hope this helps.

return (
$xml_array);

?>

Returns a well formed array like the structure of the xml-document

<root>
<child1>
<child1child1/>
</child1>
</root>

create an array like
array[root][child1][child1child1]
