xml2js Error: Cannot read property ‘toString’ of undefined
I fetch xml file from website and parse it to object, I got a error ` TypeError: Cannot read property ‘toString’ of undefined at Parser.parseString (parser.js:312) at Parser.parseString (parser.js:5) at push../node_modules/xml2js/lib/parser.js.exports.parseString (parser.js:369) at reader (weather_reader.js:32)`
parseString( xml, options, function(err, result) {
console.log(err)
console.log(result)
})
I use fetch to get xml and parseFormString(), this process makes a error, maybe the xml format became different.
const url = "https://weather.gc.ca/rss/city/on-82_e.xml";
fetch(url, {
method:'GET',
mode: 'cors',
})
.then(res => res.text())
.then(
(result) =>{
let parser = new DOMParser();
let xml = parser.parseFromString(result, 'text/xml');
return result;
});
So I try request-promise-native, this time everything is correct.
const rp = require('request-promise-native');
export default async function fetch_data(){
const url = "https://dd.weather.gc.ca/citypage_weather/xml/siteList.xml";
let data = await rp({ uri: url, simple: true });
return data;
}
