Java convert XML to YAML

I need to convert a XML File to YAML. I could not find anything helpful on Google. Is there any similar API like the json in java to convert a XML file to YAML?

You may combine underscore-java and snakeyaml libraries.

Steps:

  • Read xml file to map.

  • Generate yml file from map.

    import com.github.underscore.lodash.Xml;
import java.io.StringWriter;
import org.yaml.snakeyaml.Yaml;

Object result = Xml.fromXml(xml);
Yaml yaml = new Yaml();
StringWriter stringWriter = new StringWriter();
yaml.dump(result, stringWriter);
String yaml = stringWriter.toString();

Other than json, you can use TestNG to convert XML to YAML,

You could use Jackson, it supports XML and YAML (and also JSON, CSV and more).

https://github.com/FasterXML/jackson-dataformat-xml

https://github.com/FasterXML/jackson-dataformat-yaml

Or if it's more easy to understand for you, take two steps: XML -> JSON , JSON -> YAML. Because there are lot's of tutorials for XML -> JSON and YAML is pretty similar to JSON.
