  Parsing XML messages in kdb+

  Posted by usr19031906 on December 2, 2021 at 12:00 am

  I have a table which includes an XML  column which I need to parse.

  Are there any libraries/parsers out there which I can use or do I have to do it manually?

  Hi Alex,

  Thanks for your question!

  There is no direct way to read XML into q, however one of our KX experts  has previously shared a utility he wrote called qxml using embedPy to extract XML data into a kdb+ process.

  Another route you could take might be to use .j.k if you are able to convert the XML to JSON (which q can natively parse).

  Hope this helps!

  Thanks,

  Laura
