Frequently asked questions

How are XML attributes handled?

By default, XML attributes are included in the JSON output with an @ prefix. For example, <book id="1"> becomes {"@id": "1"}. You can disable this with the preserve_attributes option.

What happens with repeated sibling elements?

When multiple sibling elements share the same tag name, they're automatically grouped into a JSON array. For example, two <book> elements inside <catalog> become "book": [{...}, {...}].

Is this safe to use with untrusted XML?

Yes. External entity loading is disabled to prevent XXE (XML External Entity) attacks. The parser won't fetch remote resources or read local files referenced in the XML.
