Beautiful Elixir DSL for building XML documents.

XM turns Elixir syntax into Saxy simple-form XML nodes, then delegates escaping and encoding to Saxy. It is useful for feeds, sitemaps, service integrations, and any code that needs XML without string concatenation.

Supported syntax

• local calls become XML elements: url do ... end, loc "..."
• keyword arguments become attributes: link href: "/feed.xml", rel: "self"
• tag/2 builds dynamic or namespaced names that are awkward as atoms
• for, if, unless, and case work inside XML blocks
• text/1, comment/1, and cdata/1 create explicit XML node kinds
• remote calls, variables, operators, and normal expressions remain Elixir

Examples

import XM

document do
  urlset xmlns: "http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9" do
    url do
      loc "https://example.com/"
      lastmod Date.utc_today()
    end
  end
end

tree do
  tag "media:thumbnail", url: image_url
end

document/2 requires exactly one root element. Use tree/1 when building fragments to embed in a larger document.
