XML Parser for Ruby

Question

Look for something like xerces to parse the xml file into ruby. I saw my own REXML processor and the other was hpricot (although I cannot find the hpricot documentation, all the links seem to be dead). I am looking for something that will parse an XML document through SAX2 in ruby.

TIA.

Answer 1

I succeeded with the Nokogiri SAX Parser

Answer 2

Beyond those already mentioned, another alternative is probably LibXML

Answer 3

There are two quick BLAST XML parsers for Ruby that are easy to understand with iterative lazy parsing examples using the C extension for low-level XML parsing. Both are based on libxml2 and Nokogiri. Nokogiri, because the performance is swinging. See http://biogems.info for two parsers.
