XML to Rust Converter

Convert XML to Rust models with nested structure support for fast code generation.

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

  • Generate Rust structs for serde JSON parsing quickly.
  • Bootstrap typed models for APIs and CLI tools.
  • Reduce manual struct authoring for nested payloads.

Type mapping notes

  • JSON fields map to Rust struct fields with inferred scalar types.
  • Nested objects map to nested Rust structs.
  • Arrays map to Vec<T> with inferred element types.

Implementation tips

  • Review integer width and float precision for production payloads.
  • Add serde attributes for key renames when needed.
  • Organize generated models in a dedicated module tree.

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

#[derive(Debug, Serialize, Deserialize)]
pub struct UserModel {
    pub id: i64,
    pub name: String,
    pub active: bool,
    pub roles: Vec<String>,
}

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.

Can generated Rust models work with serde?

Yes. Generated Rust structs are designed as serde-friendly model bases for JSON serialization workflows.
