kbrw/sweet_xml

SweetXml is an Elixir library that provides XML parsing capabilities through the \~x sigil and streaming support for large documents. It manages XML processing via internal modules handling DTD rules and ETS storage, while offering various data casting modifiers and error types. The system includes security hardening against XXE attacks and maintains compatibility with modern Elixir versions through regular dependency and configuration updates.

SweetXml now supports streaming large XML files via the new \stream\_tags/3\ function, which allows users to process tags without loading the entire document into memory. Additionally, the \\~x\ sigil has gained new modifiers: \k\ to return results as a Keyword list, \s\ to return values as strings, and \o\ to treat the path as optional (returning \nil\ if not found). The library also adds support for \xmlObj\ records and introduces new error types (\SweetXml.XmerlFatal\ and \SweetXml.DTDError\) for better error handling.

A new internal module, \SweetXml.Options\, has been added to manage DTD (Document Type Definition) processing and ETS (Erlang Term Storage) table lifecycle. This module introduces logic to handle DTD options (\:all\, \:none\, \:internal\_only\, or specific entity allowlists) and integrates with the \:rules\ option to ensure proper setup and cleanup of ETS tables used during XML parsing, addressing previous issues with DTD exception handling and ETS management.

The legacy config/config.exs file, which utilized the deprecated Mix.Config module, has been removed from the project. This change eliminates the old configuration mechanism, likely as part of a migration to a newer configuration approach or to clean up unused boilerplate code.

This release updates the library to version 0.7.5, primarily addressing a binary pattern match warning introduced in Elixir 1.20. It also includes maintenance improvements to the README, such as updated installation instructions and typo fixes, and introduces a \.formatter.exs\ file to standardize code formatting for the project.

(repo-wide) · high confidence

Added test coverage for new and existing capabilities: streaming XML parsing (including port cleanup and error handling), security hardening against XXE and billion-laugh attacks via DTD options, and the new 'f' float cast modifier for the \~x sigil. Also added tests for namespace support and updated existing tests to reflect changes in return types (charlists vs strings) and sigil structure.

test · high confidence

The project mix.exs and mix.lock files have been initialized, establishing the base configuration for the SweetXml library. This includes setting the Elixir requirement to version 1.12 or higher, adding :xmerl and :logger as extra applications, and including ex\_doc as a development dependency for documentation generation. The lock file records the specific versions of ex\_doc and its transitive dependencies (earmark\_parser, makeup, makeup\_elixir, makeup\_erlang, nimble\_parsec) that will be used.
