App Inventor 2 with XML parsing support

[seangx]

Hi guys, I added XML parsing support to Web component since it's asked by many users and is widely used in many APIs. Do not hesitate to try it and give feedbacks!
I put detailed information in the design document https://docs.google.com/document/d/1QKVo-ylGLhCHqV5JcAnA4QwMfw30T7-ZS4EuC6CU-3c/edit?usp=sharing , and this pull request in github: https://github.com/mit-cml/appinventor-sources/pull/86

great! looking forward to that block!

my suggestion is to rename it to XmlTextDecode similar to the JsonTextDecode block

Taifun

[seangx]

Ok, to keep the naming style.

Great example aia file.

I wish the Block Editor docs for blocks like this had links to sushi-sized use case screenshots like this ...

Scott was right, the link to proposal should be https://docs.google.com/document/d/1_R_lKg2dzrBUeCn6luLOSVL2iwWlXFlMKejOpBm-g68/edit

Could this be implemented into the AI Classic code as well?

Hi, I have AI2LiveComplete. Please How do I add this feature to it?

These are proposals to solicit feedback from others and don't exist in any versions.

FYI, I'm also working on alternatives for JSON parsing; see attached.

@Hossein: why don't you just convert the JSON into a list and use the lookup in pairs block instead?

Could someone help me with parsing the 'code' in the '<yweather:condition' tag from this xml file http://weather.yahooapis.com/forecastrss?w=28218&u=c

e.g.

The 28 in <yweather:condition text="Showers in the Vicinity" code="28" temp="13" date="Tue, 06 May 2014 7:49 pm BST"/>

Thank You for helping.

Thank you, where can I find the class parse, is it on this thread?

[Jos Flores]

Please do not hijack threads, and keep programming questions in the
programming forums. Thanks!
