XML to Go Converter

Convert XML to Go structs with idiomatic field tags and nested elements, repeated nodes, and attributes.

How to use

  1. Paste XML input from your API payload or sample document.
  2. Select your output target and model options.
  3. Generate, review, and copy the result.

Benefits

  • Handles nested elements, repeated nodes, and attribute groups from XML documents.
  • Reduces manual model writing and naming inconsistencies.
  • Works instantly in browser with copy-ready output.

Best use cases

  • Create Go structs for API clients and microservices quickly.
  • Bootstrap domain models for JSON unmarshalling logic.
  • Reduce manual struct-tag maintenance for nested payloads.

Type mapping notes

  • Struct fields are exported with JSON tags for marshalling.
  • Nested objects map to nested struct types.
  • JSON arrays map to slices using inferred element types.

Implementation tips

  • Review acronym capitalization for idiomatic Go names.
  • Confirm numeric types for large identifiers or decimals.
  • Place generated structs in dedicated model packages.

Sample XML

<user>
  <id>101</id>
  <name>Ada Lovelace</name>
  <active>true</active>
  <roles>
    <role>admin</role>
    <role>editor</role>
  </roles>
  <profile>
    <email>ada@example.com</email>
    <score>9.8</score>
  </profile>
</user>

Sample output

type UserModel struct {
  Id      int      `json:"id"`
  Name    string   `json:"name"`
  Active  bool     `json:"active"`
  Roles   []string `json:"roles"`
}

FAQ

Can I generate nested models from XML?

Yes. Nested XML elements and repeated nodes are converted into structured models for the selected output language.

Can I force generated fields to optional?

Yes. Use the Force Optional toggle in the app toolbar when you need optional fields in the generated output.

Does generated Go code include JSON tags?

Yes. Generated Go structs include json tags so encoding and decoding align with original payload keys.
