AngleSharp.Xml extends the core AngleSharp library with some XML capabilities. This repository is the home of the source for the AngleSharp.Xml NuGet package.
If you just want a configuration that works you should use the following code:
var config = Configuration.Default
.WithXml(); // from AngleSharp.XmlThis will register a parser for XML related content.
Alternatively, you can also the XmlParser directly:
var parser = new XmlParser();
parser.ParseDocument(@"<?xml version=""1.0"" encoding=""ISO-8859-1""?>
<note>
<to>Tove</to>

<heading>Reminder</heading>
<body>Don't forget me this weekend!</body>
</note>"
);The XmlParser supports a variety of options, most notably it can suppress (i.e., not throw on) errors.
The main advantage is that AngleSharp.Xml is part of the AngleSharp ecosystem and integrates well, e.g., by allowing remove XML files to be loaded, interpreting SVG documents or XHTML. A major point is AngleSharp.Xml also contains parts of a DTD parser, which could be used to validate XML documents.
Finally, the integration of AngleSharp.Xml in AngleSharp means that not only HTML documents may refer or use XML freely, but also the other way round. This is therefore as close to XML in a browser as you may get in .NET.
- Fully compliant XML parser
- XML DOM similar to HTML(5)
- DTD parser and validation check
- XML serialization
