How to use "doc" tag in Nokogiri to build an XML document

I have a problem: I must build an XML document with a <doc> tag. I can use any custom tag except "doc".

I need to use "doc". How can I fix this?

You can add an underscore to the name to prevent it being seen as an existing method. See the section “Special Tags” in the Nokogiri Builder docs.

Something like:

Nokogiri::XML::Builder.new do |xml|
  # Note the underscore here:
  xml.doc_ "A doc tag"
end

This example produces the following XML (the underscore isn’t included in the tag name):

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<doc>A doc tag</doc>
