XML to Rust Converter

How to use

1. Paste a representative XML document that mirrors the feed, partner export, or API response your Rust code actually parses.
2. Review the generated structs, nested child types, and collection fields inferred from repeated XML nodes.
3. Copy the output into your crate and add parser glue, rename attributes, or module organization where your production code needs them.

Benefits

• Produces typed Rust transport structs that are easier to maintain than repeated XML tree traversal code.
• Keeps XML-backed ingestion work explicit for services, CLIs, and background jobs.
• Gives Rust teams a clean starting point before layering validation, parser adapters, or domain-specific wrappers.

Best use cases

• Rust services that ingest XML feeds, partner exports, or SOAP-adjacent payloads.
• CLI tools and import pipelines that normalize XML documents into typed transport models.
• Teams documenting legacy XML contracts before custom parser logic is finalized.

XML Rust tips

• Review optional fields, collection shapes, and integer widths before treating generated structs as stable contracts.
• Add parser-specific rename rules or custom deserialization only after the transport shape is reviewed.
• Keep generated structs separate from richer domain types when ownership and invariants diverge later in the pipeline.

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>,
}
