What is XML to JavaScript Converter?

This tool parses XML into a JavaScript-friendly object shape. It can preserve attributes, wrap the XML root element, infer numbers and booleans, and format the result as a const declaration, ES module default export, CommonJS export, IIFE, or bare expression.

How to Use XML to JavaScript Converter

1

Paste XML into the input panel.

2

Choose an output style.

3

Set the variable name when using a declaration or export style.

4

Toggle root wrapping, attributes, scalar inference, quotes, and semicolons.

5

Copy the generated JavaScript.

Common Use Cases

  • Embedding XML sample data in JavaScript tests.
  • Migrating XML fixtures into JS object literals.
  • Creating mock data modules from XML feeds.
  • Inspecting how XML maps into a JSON-like object shape.

Example Input and Output

A simple XML settings document becomes a const object declaration.

XML input
<settings><theme>dark</theme><retries>3</retries></settings>
JavaScript output
const xmlData = {
  settings: {
    theme: "dark",
    retries: 3,
  },
};

Tip

Use ES module output when you want to import the converted XML fixture into tests or demos.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is my XML uploaded?
No. Conversion runs locally in your browser.
