Atom Hopper is used internally as a bridge from products all the +way to collecting revenue, called “Usage.” MaaS and other products send similar +events to it every time user performs an action on a resource +(e.g. creates,updates or deletes). Below is an example of leveraging the API +to create a new XML document. + +```javascript +var et = require('elementtree'); +var XML = et.XML; +var ElementTree = et.ElementTree; +var element = et.Element; +var subElement = et.SubElement; + +var date, root, tenantId, serviceName, eventType, usageId, dataCenter, region, +checks, resourceId, category, startTime, resourceName, etree, xml; + +date = new Date(); + +root = element('entry'); +root.set('xmlns', 'http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom'); + +tenantId = subElement(root, 'TenantId'); +tenantId.text = '12345'; + +serviceName = subElement(root, 'ServiceName'); +serviceName.text = 'MaaS'; + +resourceId = subElement(root, 'ResourceID'); +resourceId.text = 'enAAAA'; + +usageId = subElement(root, 'UsageID'); +usageId.text = '550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000'; + +eventType = subElement(root, 'EventType'); +eventType.text = 'create'; + +category = subElement(root, 'category'); +category.set('term', 'monitoring.entity.create'); + +dataCenter = subElement(root, 'DataCenter'); +dataCenter.text = 'global'; + +region = subElement(root, 'Region'); +region.text = 'global'; + +startTime = subElement(root, 'StartTime'); +startTime.text = date; + +resourceName = subElement(root, 'ResourceName'); +resourceName.text = 'entity'; + +etree = new ElementTree(root); +xml = etree.write({'xml_declaration': false}); +console.log(xml); +``` + +As you can see, both et.Element and et.SubElement are factory methods which +return a new instance of Element and SubElement class, respectively. +When you create a new element (tag) you can use set method to set an attribute. +To set the tag value, assign a value to the .text attribute. + +This example would output a document that looks like this: + +```xml +<entry xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom"> + <TenantId>12345</TenantId> + <ServiceName>MaaS</ServiceName> + <ResourceID>enAAAA</ResourceID> + <UsageID>550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000</UsageID> + <EventType>create</EventType> + <category term="monitoring.entity.create"/> + <DataCenter>global</DataCenter> + <Region>global</Region> + <StartTime>Sun Apr 29 2012 16:37:32 GMT-0700 (PDT)</StartTime> + <ResourceName>entity</ResourceName> +</entry> +``` + +Example 2 – Parsing An XML Document +==================== + +This example shows how to parse an XML document and use simple XPath selectors. +For demonstration purposes, we will use the XML document located at +https://gist.github.com/2554343. + +Behind the scenes, node-elementtree uses Isaac’s sax library for parsing XML, +but the library has a concept of “parsers,” which means it’s pretty simple to +add support for a different parser. + +```javascript +var fs = require('fs'); + +var et = require('elementtree'); + +var XML = et.XML; +var ElementTree = et.ElementTree; +var element = et.Element; +var subElement = et.SubElement; + +var data, etree; + +data = fs.readFileSync('document.xml').toString(); +etree = et.parse(data); + +console.log(etree.findall('./entry/TenantId').length); // 2 +console.log(etree.findtext('./entry/ServiceName')); // MaaS +console.log(etree.findall('./entry/category')[0].get('term')); // monitoring.entity.create +console.log(etree.findall('*/category/[@term="monitoring.entity.update"]').length); // 1 +``` + +Build status +==================== + +[](http://travis-ci.org/racker/node-elementtree) + + +License +==================== + +node-elementtree is distributed under the [Apache license](http://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0.html). |
