The XMLReader class

(PHP 5 >= 5.1.0, PHP 7, PHP 8)

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.

As japos mentioned. Take care how you use isEmptyElement. After you are done looping through the attributes: isEmptyElement will be false.  You can use moveToElement() to move the cursor back to the element and then you can use isEmptyElement like normal again.

The "XML2Assoc" functions noted here should be used with caution... basically they are duplicating the functionality already present in SimpleXML. They may work but they won't scale.

Their are two main uses cases for parsing XML, each suited to either XMLReader or SimpleXML.

1. SimpleXML is an excellent tool for easy access to an XML document tree using native PHP data types. It starts to flounder with massive (> 50M or so) XML documents, as it reads the entire document into memory before it can be processed. SimpleXML will just laugh at you then die when your server runs out of memory (or it will cause a load spike).

2. Aside from the reasoning behind massive XML documents, if you have to deal with massive XML documents, use XMLReader to process them. Don't try and gather an entire XML document into a PHP data structure using XMLReader and a PHP xml2assoc() function, you are reinventing the SimpleXML wheel.
When parsing massive XML documents using XMLReader, gather the data you need to perform an operation then perform it before skipping to the next node. Do not build massive data structures from a massive XML document, your server (and it's admins) will not like you.

Guys, I hope this example will help
you can erase prints showing the process-
and it will be a piece of nice code.

<?php
function xml2assoc($xml, $name)
{
    print "<ul>";

    $tree = null;
    print("I'm inside " . $name . "<br>");
   
    while($xml->read())
    {
        if($xml->nodeType == XMLReader::END_ELEMENT)
        {
            print "</ul>";
            return $tree;
        }
       
        else if($xml->nodeType == XMLReader::ELEMENT)
        {
            $node = array();
           
            print("Adding " . $xml->name ."<br>");
            $node['tag'] = $xml->name;

            if($xml->hasAttributes)
            {
                $attributes = array();
                while($xml->moveToNextAttribute())
                {
                    print("Adding attr " . $xml->name ." = " . $xml->value . "<br>");
                    $attributes[$xml->name] = $xml->value;
                }
                $node['attr'] = $attributes;
            }
           
            if(!$xml->isEmptyElement)
            {
                $childs = xml2assoc($xml, $node['tag']);
                $node['childs'] = $childs;
            }
           
            print($node['tag'] . " added <br>");
            $tree[] = $node;
        }
       
        else if($xml->nodeType == XMLReader::TEXT)
        {
            $node = array();
            $node['text'] = $xml->value;
            $tree[] = $node;
            print "text added = " . $node['text'] . "<br>";
        }
    }
   
    print "returning " . count($tree) . " childs<br>";
    print "</ul>";
   
    return $tree;
}

echo "<PRE>";

$xml = new XMLReader();
$xml->open('test.xml');
$assoc = xml2assoc($xml, "root");
$xml->close();

print_r($assoc);
echo "</PRE>";

?>

It reads this xml:

<test>
    <hallo volume="loud"> me <br/> lala </hallo>
    <hallo> me </hallo>
</test>

Found this in the IXmlReader docs at msdn but it's also valid for XMLReader in PHP.

You should save the value of $isEmptyElement before processing attributes, or call moveToElement to make $isEmptyElement valid after processing attributes.

$isEmptyElement returns FALSE when XMLReader is positioned on an attribute node, even if attribute's parent element is empty.

XML to ASSOCIATIVE ARRAY

Improved algorithm based on Sergey Aikinkulov's. The problem was that it would overwrite nodes if they had the same tag name. Because of that <a><b/><b/><a> would be read as if <a><b/><a/>. This algorithm handles it better and outputs an easy to understand array:

<?php
function xml2assoc($xml) {
    $tree = null;
    while($xml->read())
        switch ($xml->nodeType) {
            case XMLReader::END_ELEMENT: return $tree;
            case XMLReader::ELEMENT:
                $node = array('tag' => $xml->name, 'value' => $xml->isEmptyElement ? '' : xml2assoc($xml));
                if($xml->hasAttributes)
                    while($xml->moveToNextAttribute())
                        $node['attributes'][$xml->name] = $xml->value;
                $tree[] = $node;
            break;
            case XMLReader::TEXT:
            case XMLReader::CDATA:
                $tree .= $xml->value;
        }
    return $tree;
}

?>

Usage:

myxml.xml:
------
<PERSON>
    <NAME>John</NAME>
    <PHONE type="home">555-555-555</PHONE>
</PERSON>
----

<?
    $xml = new XMLReader();
    $xml->open('myxml.xml');
    $assoc = xml2assoc($xml);
    $xml->close();
    print_r($assoc);
?>

Outputs:
Array
(
    [0] => Array
        (
            [tag] => PERSON
            [value] => Array
                (
                    [0] => Array
                        (
                            [tag] => NAME
                            [value] => John
                        )

                    [1] => Array
                        (
                            [tag] => PHONE
                            [value] => 555-555-555
                            [attributes] => Array
                                (
                                    [type] => home
                                )

                        )

                )

        )

)

For reasons that have to do with recursion, it returns an array with the ROOT xml node as the first childNode, rather than to return only the ROOT node.

Take care about how to use XMLReader::$isElementEmpty. I don't know if it is a bug or not, but $isElementEmpty is set for the current context and NOT just for the element. If you move your cursor to an attribute, $isElementEmpty will ALWAYS be false.

<?php
$xml = new XMLReader();
$xml->XML('<tag attr="value" />');
$xml->read();
var_dump($xml->isEmptyElement);
$xml->moveToNextAttribute();
var_dump($xml->isEmptyElement);
?>

will output

(bool) true
(bool) false

So be sure to store $isEmptyElement before moving the cursor.

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>

Next version xml2assoc with some improve fixes:
- no doubled data
- no buffer arrays

<?php
/*
    Read XML structure to associative array
    --
    Using:
    $xml = new XMLReader();
    $xml->open([XML file]);
    $assoc = xml2assoc($xml);
    $xml->close();
*/
    function xml2assoc($xml) {
      $assoc = null;
      while($xml->read()){
        switch ($xml->nodeType) {
          case XMLReader::END_ELEMENT: return $assoc;
          case XMLReader::ELEMENT:
            $assoc[$xml->name][] = array('value' => $xml->isEmptyElement ? '' : xml2assoc($xml));
            if($xml->hasAttributes){
              $el =& $assoc[$xml->name][count($assoc[$xml->name]) - 1];
              while($xml->moveToNextAttribute()) $el['attributes'][$xml->name] = $xml->value;
            }
            break;
          case XMLReader::TEXT:
          case XMLReader::CDATA: $assoc .= $xml->value;
        }
      }
      return $assoc;
    }
?>

Sometimes you have an unusual URL that doesn't actually point to an xml file but still returns xml as output (Like the Battlefield Heroes generated syndication urls). Using get_file_contents(url) you can retrieve the xml data from these urls and pass it as a variable for processing as an XML String.

Unfortunately simpleXML or xml DOM cannot process all xml strings. Some have error boxes added to the end of them (such as Battlefield Heroes syndicated news). These boxes cause an end of file sort of error and closes out the script. XMLReader grabs data from these strings without error.

Please discard my previous note; I pressed 'Add Note' too quickly

About (non-)self-closing tags:

A) <tag></tag>
    $xmlRdr->isEmptyElement => false
    $xmlRdr->hasValue       => false
    $xmlRdr->value          => ''
    $xmlRdr->hasAttributes  => false

B) <tag />
    $xmlRdr->isEmptyElement => true
    $xmlRdr->hasValue       => false
    $xmlRdr->value          => ''
    $xmlRdr->hasAttributes  => false

C) <tag attribute="value"></tag>
    $xmlRdr->isEmptyElement => false
    $xmlRdr->hasValue       => false
    $xmlRdr->value          => ''
    $xmlRdr->hasAttributes  => true

D) <tag attribute="value" />
    $xmlRdr->isEmptyElement => true
    $xmlRdr->hasValue       => false
    $xmlRdr->value          => ''
    $xmlRdr->hasAttributes  => true

... and always use the '===' operator when testing properties

To verify that all nodes are read without error/warning you can use this code:
<?php
$endofxml = false;
$xml_url = "example.xml";
$reader = new XMLReader();
if(!$reader->open($xml_url)){
    print "Error to open XML: $xml_url\n";
} else {
    while ($reader->read()) {
        $firstnode = (!isset($firstnode)) ? $reader->name : $firstnode;
/*
DO SOMETHING
*/
        if ($reader->nodeType == XMLReader::END_ELEMENT && $reader->name == $firstnode) {   
            $endofxml = true;
        }
    }
}
if($endofxml) {
    print "no error found";
} else {
    print "error found";
}
?>

This code is useful to trap $reader->read() error/warning.

print htmlspecialchars($source).'<br/>';
parseXML($xml,0,'');
?>

Output:

0-0 /tag1
1-1 /tag1/text() = this

For those of you getting xml files that do not contain duplicate elements (in the same element), the following converter converts to arrays with key/value mapping (thus overwriting duplicate elements!):

Note this is untested with attributes although I built in support.

<?php
    function xml2assoc($xml, array &$target = array()) {
        while ($xml->read()) {
            switch ($xml->nodeType) {
                case XMLReader::END_ELEMENT:
                    return $target;
                case XMLReader::ELEMENT:
                    $name = $xml->name;
                    $target[$name] = $xml->hasAttributes ? array() : '';
                    if (!$xml->isEmptyElement) {
                        $target[$name] = array();
                        xml2assoc($xml, $target[$name]);
                    }

                    if ($xml->hasAttributes)
                        while($xml->moveToNextAttribute())
                            $target[$name]['@'.$xml->name] = $xml->value;
                    break;
                case XMLReader::TEXT:
                case XMLReader::CDATA:
                    $target = $xml->value;
            }
        }
        return $target;
    }
?>

Just in case someone is confused, if you're wanting to simply pass a string of XML instead of an entire file, you would do this.

<?php
$foo = new XMLReader();
$foo->xml($STRING);
?>

.... where $STRING holds your XML. You cannot pass it like $foo = $STRING or $foo->xml = $STRING.
