(PHP 5, PHP 7, PHP 8)

simplexml_import_domConstruye un objeto SimpleXMLElement a partir de un objeto XML o HTML

Descripción

simplexml_import_dom(object $node, ?string $class_name = SimpleXMLElement::class): ?SimpleXMLElement

simplexml_import_dom() toma un nodo de un documento DOM y lo transforma en nodo SimpleXML. Este nuevo objeto puede entonces ser utilizado como un objeto nativo SimpleXML.

Parámetros

node

Un elemento DOM

class_name

Este parámetro opcional permite que simplexml_load_string() retorne un objeto de la clase especificada. Esta clase debe extender la clase SimpleXMLElement.

Valores devueltos

Retorna un objeto SimpleXMLElement o null en caso de fallo.

Errores/Excepciones

Lanza una TypeError cuando un node no-XML o no-HTML es pasado.

Historial de cambios

Versión Descripción
8.4.0 Se añade soporte para Dom\Document.
8.4.0 Esta función ahora lanza una TypeError en lugar de una ValueError cuando un node no-XML o no-HTML es pasado.

Ejemplos

Ejemplo #1 Importar un DOMDocument

<?php
$dom
= new DOMDocument;
$dom->loadXML('<books><book><title>blah</title></book></books>');
if (!
$dom) {
echo
'Error durante el análisis del documento';
exit;
}

$s = simplexml_import_dom($dom);

echo
$s->book[0]->title;
?>

El ejemplo anterior mostrará :

blah

Ejemplo #2 Importar un Dom\Document

<?php
$dom
= Dom\XMLDocument::createFromString('<books><book><title>blah</title></book></books>');

$s = simplexml_import_dom($dom);

echo
$s->book[0]->title;
?>

El ejemplo anterior mostrará :

Why not just:simplexml_import_dom(dom_import_simplexml($SimpleXmlNode))

/*If tags in DOM have text and some part of this text is surrounded by other tag, simple_import_dom object doesn't contain position of child tag, so rendering it back to html/xml can be a problem. Printing such a node is also peculiar. Eg.*///////////////////////$text = "<body><p>Some text before <em>italic </em>and after text.</p></body>";$dom = new DOMDocument;$dom->loadHTML($text);$result = simplexml_import_dom($dom);echo $result->p;////////////////////////Prints ://Some text before and after text.print_r($result->p);//Prints://SimpleXMLElement Object ( [em] => italic )print_r($result->p->em)//does more or less the same://SimpleXMLElement Object ( [0] => italic )var_dump($result->p);//Prints://object(SimpleXMLElement)#8 (1) { ["em"]=> string(7) "italic " }var_dump($result->p->em)//object(SimpleXMLElement)#9 (1) { [0]=> string(7) "italic " }//butecho $result->p->em;//prints://italic

simplexml_import_dom() will accept DOMNodes or other SimpleXMLElements.  This has a useful purpose if you are extending the SimpleXMLElement class and would prefer the xpath() method to return your class extension instead of basic SimpleXMLElements.  For example:class MySimpleXML extends SimpleXMLElement{    public function xpath($xpath){         $return = array();        $simpleXmls = parent::xpath($xpath); // run SimpleXMLElement xpath, returning an array of SimpleXMLElements        foreach($simpleXmls as $xml){            $return[] = simplexml_import_dom($xml,'MySimpleXML'); // copy SimpleXMLElement, returning as MySimpleXML instance        }        return $return;    }}Now I can create an instance of MySimpleXML, run an xpath, and get my results back as an array of MySimpleXML elements instead of the native SimpleXMLElement:$mySimpleXml = new mySimpleXml('<root><node/></root>');$array = $mySimpleXml->xpath('/root/node'); // returns array with a single MySimpleXml object
