I'm working on the Symfony serializer and I'm trying to generate an XML from the results of a query made on my Mongo database. But I want an XML with a very specific structure. I probably could do that by customizing XmlEncoder but it's probably more complicated than necessary.
I know I could change the default main tag <response> without editing the encoder class, just with a paramater but I haven't found how to customize the rest of the XML file, could I do it in this same way? I guess the answer is yes but I didn't find how to do.
This is the code of my controller:
public function servicesXml (ContentRepository $content): Response
{
$encoder = [new XmlEncoder ('result')];
$normalizer = [new ObjectNormalizer ()];
$serializer = new Serializer ($normalizer, $encoder);
$response = $content-> getContents ();
$tag = [
'@xmlns' => 'http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom',
'#' => $response
];
$response = $serializer-> serialize ($response, 'xml', [
'xml_format_output' => true,
'xml_encoding' => 'utf-8',
'xml_root_node_name' => 'feed']);
return new Response ($response);
}
By default with XmlEncoder, I have something like :
<response>
<item key="0">
<id>1</id>
<header>
<title>Title</title>
<subtitle>Subtitle</subtitle>
<module>
<date>
<time>-292277022657-01-27T08:29:52+0000</time>
</date>
</module>
<author>
<name>Name</name>
</author>
</header>
<body>
<html><![CDATA[<p>Text</p>]]></html>
</body>
<location>
<country_code>??</country_code>
<latitude>0</latitude>
<longitude>0</longitude>
</location>
</item>
</response>
and I hope to have :
<feed xlmns="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom">
<logo>URL</logo>
<entry>
<id>
<title>Title</title>
<notsubtitle>Subtitle</notsubtitle>
