xee

Swiss Army knife tool for XML.

The xee (try -h) allows you to do stuff with XML on the command line.

Features include:

• formatting XML in various ways, including in indented form
• evaluate an XPath expression against an XML document
• a REPL for evaluating XPath expressions.

This implements XPath 3.1.

Usage

Execute an XPath expression

Execute an XPath expression /doc/p against a file foo.xml, result to stdout:

xee xpath /doc/p foo.xml

Interactive shell for XPath

Interactive shell (REPL) to issue multiple xpath expressions against a document:

xee repl

Pretty-print an XML file

Pretty-print foo.xml, result to stdout:

xee indent foo.xml

More Xee

This is built using xee-xpath, a high level API to issue XPath 3.1 expressions in Rust.
