使用XML模式将XML转换为JSON

Question

我想将XML转换为JSON（确切地说，是OAI-PMH响应）。我当前使用的是node.js xml2js，但问题是JSON非常冗长，可以嵌套和使用多个级别的数组，即使只有一个元素作为子元素，也永远不会超过一个。问题是xml2js对XML文件的架构一无所知，因此必须保守。

我的问题是，是否还有其他（最好是JavaScript）代码会使用XML模式指导转换过程？因此，如果架构定义了XML的类型和结构，那么JSON会比JSON更好地利用它并自动具有正确的类型，而不是不必要的数组级别。

最后，我决定只实现这样一个包：xml4js。

因此，对于来自XML Primer的 XML ：

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<purchaseOrder orderDate="1999-10-20" xmlns="http://www.example.com/PO">
   <shipTo country="US">
      <name>Alice Smith</name>
      <street>123 Maple Street</street>
      <city>Mill Valley</city>
      <state>CA</state>
      <zip>90952</zip>
   </shipTo>
   <billTo country="US">
      <name>Robert Smith</name>
      <street>8 Oak Avenue</street>
      <city>Old Town</city>
      <state>PA</state>
      <zip>95819</zip>
   </billTo>
   <comment>Hurry, my lawn is going wild!</comment>
   <items>
      <item partNum="872-AA">
         <productName>Lawnmower</productName>
         <quantity>1</quantity>
         <USPrice>148.95</USPrice>
         <comment>Confirm this is electric</comment>
      </item>
      <item partNum="926-AA">
         <productName>Baby Monitor</productName>
         <quantity>1</quantity>
         <USPrice>39.98</USPrice>
         <shipDate>1999-05-21</shipDate>
      </item>
   </items>
</purchaseOrder>

如果不使用 XML 模式来指导转换过程，并且打开显式数组，您将得到：

{
  "purchaseOrder": {
    "$": {
      "orderDate": "1999-10-20",
      "xmlns": "http://www.example.com/PO"
    },
    "shipTo": [
      {
        "$": {
          "country": "US"
        },
        "name": [
          "Alice Smith"
        ],
        "street": [
          "123 Maple Street"
        ],
        "city": [
          "Mill Valley"
        ],
        "state": [
          "CA"
        ],
        "zip": [
          "90952"
        ]
      }
    ],
    "billTo": [
      {
        "$": {
          "country": "US"
        },
        "name": [
          "Robert Smith"
        ],
        "street": [
          "8 Oak Avenue"
        ],
        "city": [
          "Old Town"
        ],
        "state": [
          "PA"
        ],
        "zip": [
          "95819"
        ]
      }
    ],
    "comment": [
      "Hurry, my lawn is going wild!"
    ],
    "items": [
      {
        "item": [
          {
            "$": {
              "partNum": "872-AA"
            },
            "productName": [
              "Lawnmower"
            ],
            "quantity": [
              "1"
            ],
            "USPrice": [
              "148.95"
            ],
            "comment": [
              "Confirm this is electric"
            ]
          },
          {
            "$": {
              "partNum": "926-AA"
            },
            "productName": [
              "Baby Monitor"
            ],
            "quantity": [
              "1"
            ],
            "USPrice": [
              "39.98"
            ],
            "shipDate": [
              "1999-05-21"
            ]
          }
        ]
      }
    ]
  }
}

但这个包给了你这个：

{
  "purchaseOrder": {
    "$": {
      "orderDate": "1999-10-20T00:00:00.000Z"
    },
    "shipTo": {
      "$": {
        "country": "US"
      },
      "name": "Alice Smith",
      "street": "123 Maple Street",
      "city": "Mill Valley",
      "state": "CA",
      "zip": 90952
    },
    "billTo": {
      "$": {
        "country": "US"
      },
      "name": "Robert Smith",
      "street": "8 Oak Avenue",
      "city": "Old Town",
      "state": "PA",
      "zip": 95819
    },
    "comment": "Hurry, my lawn is going wild!",
    "items": {
      "item": [
        {
          "$": {
            "partNum": "872-AA"
          },
          "productName": "Lawnmower",
          "quantity": 1,
          "USPrice": 148.95,
          "comment": "Confirm this is electric"
        },
        {
          "$": {
            "partNum": "926-AA"
          },
          "productName": "Baby Monitor",
          "quantity": 1,
          "USPrice": 39.98,
          "shipDate": "1999-05-21T00:00:00.000Z"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}
