ccnxml

Welcome to the documentation for the ccnxml package, which is a powerful tool for working with XML in your Cocoa projects. With ccnxml, you can parse, generate, and manipulate XML data with ease.

Installation

To install the ccnxml package, you can use either CocoaPods or Swift Package Manager.

Using CocoaPods

To install via CocoaPods, add the following line to your Podfile:

pod 'ccnxml'

Using Swift Package Manager

To install via Swift Package Manager, add the following dependency to your Package.swift file:

dependencies: [
    .package(url: "https://github.com/ccnxyz/ccnxml.git", from: "1.0.0")
]

Getting Started

To get started with the ccnxml package, follow the steps below:

  1. Import the ccnxml module into your project:
    2. import ccnxml
  2. Create an instance of CCNXMLParser or CCNXMLGenerator depending on your needs.
    3. // Example: Creating an instance of CCNXMLParser
let parser = CCNXMLParser()

// Example: Creating an instance of CCNXMLGenerator
let generator = CCNXMLGenerator()
  3. Use the available methods and properties of the parser or generator to parse or generate XML content.
    4. // Example: Parsing an XML file
if let xmlFileURL = Bundle.main.url(forResource: "example", withExtension: "xml") {
    do {
        let xmlData = try Data(contentsOf: xmlFileURL)
        let xmlDoc = try parser.parse(xmlData: xmlData)
        
        // Process the parsed XML document
    } catch {
        print("Error: Unable to parse the XML file.")
    }
}

// Example: Generating XML content
let rootElement = CCNXMLNode(name: "root")
let childElement = CCNXMLNode(name: "child", stringValue: "Hello, World!")
rootElement.addChild(childElement)

let xmlString = generator.generateXMLString(rootElement: rootElement)

API Reference

ccnxml provides a comprehensive set of classes and methods to work with XML data. For detailed information about each class and its methods and properties, refer to the API reference documentation.

You can find the complete API reference here.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter any difficulties while using the ccnxml package, check the common issues and solutions below:

  • Issue: Parsing an XML file returns unexpected results.

    • Solution: Double-check the XML file’s structure and the code used to parse it. Ensure that the XML conforms to the expected format and that the parser settings are correctly configured.

  • Issue: Generating XML content produces invalid XML.

    • Solution: Verify that the XML nodes and attributes being generated are correctly formatted. Ensure that the necessary elements and attributes are added, and that their content adheres to XML syntax rules.

  • Issue: Unable to install the ccnxml package via CocoaPods or Swift Package Manager.

    • Solution: Double-check your project’s configuration and dependencies. Make sure the proper package or pod specification is added, and try reinstalling or updating the package manager to ensure it has the latest version.

Conclusion

Congratulations on setting up and using the ccnxml package! You can now effectively work with XML data in your Cocoa projects. For further assistance, consult the API reference documentation or reach out to the community for support.
