dwml-to-json

A fork of thataustin/dwml-to-json.

Differences:

• parses also series without end-valid-time
• preserves timezones with Luxon
• appends a type to series name, to distinguish eg. multiple temperature series (real & apparent)
• uses ES modules
• uses Vitest for testing

Pass in a DWML string, get back a JS object.

This is a fairly naive approach to making DWML more approachable in JS.

Installation

npm install dwml-to-json

Example usage

import fs from 'fs';
import dwmlParser from 'dwml-to-json';

const xmlString = fs.readFileSync('path/to/dwml-file', 'utf8');
const parsedData = dwmlParser.parse(xmlString);

What does the JSON look like?

Look at the test file test/parser.test.js to see what the JSON looks like. That JSON is based on the DWML found in test/dwml.xml

Completeness

So far I've only tested precipitation and probability-of-precipitation as those were the only parameters I needed.

But you should be able to include any location-based parameters in your DWML document and recieve them in the JSON response.

Contributing

Please contribute. There were no dwml parsers when I wrote this, so I'd love it if we could all get behind one in the npm community.

Obviously you can fork this, etc, but the better this tool gets the more we all profit.

Testing

Run the tests with:

npm test
