How to Convert XML to PHP Classes - Step by Step Guide

Step 1

Input Your XML Schema

Start by adding your XML data that needs to be converted to PHP classes. The tool analyzes the structure to generate appropriate PHP classes with getters, setters, and methods.

Example: Try This XML Data

Copy and paste this XML example to see how it works: 🐘

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<e-commerce-order id="ORD-2024-001" status="confirmed">
  <customer-info>
    <customer-id>CUST-12345</customer-id>
    <name>Maria Rodriguez</name>
    <email>maria.rodriguez@example.com</email>
    <is-premium>true</is-premium>
  </customer-info>
  <order-details>
    <order-date>2024-01-15</order-date>
    <total-amount>299.99</total-amount>
    <currency>USD</currency>
  </order-details>
</e-commerce-order>
Step 2

Configure PHP Options

Customize how your XML is converted to PHP classes! ⚙️ Choose naming conventions and method generation options.

Getters and Setters: Generate getter and setter methods for clean property access
Constructor: Automatic constructor with array-based initialization
JSON methods: Built-in toArray() and toJson() methods for serialization
SimpleXML integration: XML parsing with SimpleXML support
Step 3

Get Generated PHP Code

Watch the transformation! ✨ Your XML structure becomes clean, object-oriented PHP classes.

PHP Code Output

Your XML becomes these PHP classes:

<?php

class ECommerceOrder {
    private $id;
    private $status;
    private $customerInfo;
    private $orderDetails;

    public function __construct($data = []) {
        foreach ($data as $key => $value) {
            if (property_exists($this, $key)) {
                $this->$key = $value;
            }
        }
    }

    public function getId() {
        return $this->id;
    }

    public function toJson() {
        return json_encode($this->toArray());
    }
}

What is XML to PHP Conversion? 🔄

XML to PHP conversion transforms XML schemas into PHP classes with getters, setters, and JSON serialization methods. This process analyzes XML structure and generates PHP classes that can parse and serialize XML data, making it easy to work with XML in PHP applications and web services.

The generated PHP classes include private properties, getter/setter methods, constructors with array initialization, toArray() and toJson() methods for serialization, and integration with SimpleXML for XML parsing, enabling seamless XML processing in PHP applications.

Frequently Asked Questions

What PHP features are included in the generated classes?

The tool generates PHP classes with private properties, getter/setter methods, constructors that accept associative arrays, toArray() and toJson() methods for serialization, and static fromXml() methods for XML parsing with SimpleXML integration.

Are the generated PHP classes compatible with Laravel and other frameworks?

Yes! The generated PHP classes work perfectly with Laravel, Symfony, CodeIgniter, and other PHP frameworks. They integrate seamlessly with Eloquent models, API controllers, and can be used as data transfer objects or service classes.

How does the tool handle complex XML hierarchies in PHP?

Complex XML structures are converted to nested PHP classes with proper relationships. Each XML element becomes a PHP class with appropriate properties and methods, maintaining the hierarchical structure and enabling easy navigation through the object model.

Can I use these classes with SimpleXML for XML parsing?

Absolutely! The generated PHP classes include SimpleXML integration and fromXml() static methods. You can use them to parse XML documents and automatically create PHP objects from XML data, making XML processing in PHP applications much easier.

What PHP naming conventions are used in the generated code?

The tool follows PHP naming conventions: class names use PascalCase, property names use camelCase, and method names follow PHP standards. XML attributes and elements are automatically converted to proper PHP naming conventions with appropriate getters and setters.

Is the XML to PHP converter completely free?

Yes, completely free with no restrictions on XML complexity, file size, or usage frequency. Generate unlimited PHP classes from XML schemas without registration, and download the complete PHP source code for immediate integration into your PHP projects.
