Request your suggestions on best way to convert CSV to XML

CSV u2013 MII should read below data from a file

1,a1,aaaa

1,a1,bbbb

1,a2,cccc

1,a2,dddd

2,a3,eeee

2,a3,ffff

2,a4,gggg

2,a4,hhhh

Intermediate MII XML

<Rowsets>

<Rowset>

<Row>

<Item>1</Item>

</Row>

<Row>

<Item>a1</Item>

Target XML

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>

<mainnode>

<repeatnode1>

<node1_id>1</node1_id>

<repeatnode2>

<node2_id>a1</node2_id>

<repeatnode3>

<name>aaaa</name>

</repeatnode3>

<repeatnode3>

<name>bbbb</name>

</repeatnode3>

</repeatnode2>

<repeatnode2>

<node2_id>a2</node2_id>

<repeatnode3>

<name>cccc</name>

</repeatnode3>

<repeatnode3>

<name>dddd</name>

</repeatnode3>

</repeatnode2>

</repeatnode1>

<repeatnode1>

<node1_id>2</node1_id>

<repeatnode2>

<node2_id>a3</node2_id>

<repeatnode3>

<name>eeee</name>

</repeatnode3>

<repeatnode3>

<name>ffff</name>

</repeatnode3>

</repeatnode2>

</repeatnode1>

</mainnode>

Mapping Points/Constraints

u2022 Repeatnode1,repeatnode2 and repeatnode3 in the output XMl are UNBOUNDED

Actions taken so far:

u2022 Read file using GetFile list Action block

u2022 Assign file content to Text_Loader.StringContentu2013 Using TextLoader action block u2013 Query u2013 Records in this text file may be up to 20000 , will all the records fit to Text_Loader.StringContent?

u2022 Read individual line u2013 Flat_file_Parser action block

u2022 Convert Line string to MII XML using String_List_toXML parser

u2022 Now problem is converting MII XML to XML

Optimal way conversion methodologies are requested.

Thanks

Hi,

There is a custom action action block that does whatever you want.

Please look into the link below:

Thanks for your help. I tried XSLT and it worked

Hi Rajesh,

I would look to an XSLT to transform the xml for your last step.
