XML to TSV Converter

Kept

• The repeating elements (for example every <book>) become the records, and their child tags become fields
• Attributes are kept as fields named @_attribute, for example @_id
• Codes with leading zeros, like 007, stay text instead of turning into 7
• Saved as UTF-8 with a BOM, with tabs between columns, so commas inside values need no quoting

Good to know

• Only the repeating records are exported. The wrapper elements around them (like <catalog>) are dropped.
• Text mixed with tags inside one element is read as a #text field.
• Tabs and line breaks inside a value are wrapped in quotes automatically so the columns stay aligned.
• Nested objects and lists cannot sit in a table cell, so they are written into the cell as JSON text, for example {"city":"Lviv"}.
