The TagMogrifier library for PHP

Do you work with PHP and XML often? If you do, you’ve probably noticed it’s very tedious to manipulate XML from PHP. Be it regular expressions, tree walking of DOM nodes, or SAX, all of these alternatives are hard work.

The purpose of this library is to let you perform fast and easy-to-program transformations on XML documents. Instead of having to write your own parser, or directly using the PHP DOM parser, and having to write your own tree walker and such, you only need to instantiate a class, add a few match expressions, and assign a function to process every XML element that matches, DOM-style.

What’s required to use this library?

  • PHP 5.0.0 or newer
  • The PHP XML extension, installed and active (usually packaged in a package named php-xml)
