I have a XML file in which I saved some product details: ID, name, price
How can I display these rows in a table? Should I use doctrine? Where should I put the XML file? In public and then install assets?
Here is my products.xml
<products>
<product>
<id>2222</id>
<manufacturer>AMINE</manufacturer>
<name>*AMINE 123 185/65 R15 88 T</name>
<additional>AUSLAUF</additional>
<price>74.24</price>
<availability>4</availability>
<product_image>http://media2.tyre24.de/images/tyre/330-R-w300-h300-br1.jpg</product_image>
</product>
<product>
<id>3333</id>
<manufacturer>AMINE</manufacturer>
<name>*AMINE 456 185/65 R15 88 T</name>
<additional>AUSLAUF</additional>
<price>74.24</price>
<availability>4</availability>

use 'simplexml_load_file($url);' function. This function will convert an XML file into a SimpleXMLElement object, then output keys and elements of the object.
After this 'json_decode(json_encode((array)$var_name),1)' this function will convert the that object to an json object. By using this josn object we can do what ever we want.
public function functionNameAction(){
// Write your code
try {
$simpleXMLElementObject = simplexml_load_file($file_url);
$xml_josn_object = json_decode(json_encode((array)$simpleXMLElementObject),1);
}catch (\Exception $e){
// Handle the exception
}
// Render your template and pass this $xml_josn_object into the template and do what ever you want in that template
}
For reference just Look this
