如果你使用magento，你有这种类型的关联数组

$test_array = array (
    '0' => array (
            'category_id' => '582',
            'name' => 'Surat',
            'parent_id' => '565',
            'child_id' => '567',
            'active' => '1',
            'level' => '6',
            'position' => '17'
    ),

    '1' => array (
            'category_id' => '567', 
            'name' => 'test',
            'parent_id' => '0',
            'child_id' => '576',
            'active' => '0',
            'level' => '0',
            'position' => '18'
    ),
);

那么最好将关联数组转换为XML格式。在控制器文件中使用此代码。

$this->loadLayout(false);
//header ("content-type: text/xml");
$this->getResponse()->setHeader('Content-Type','text/xml');
$this->renderLayout();

$clArr2xml = new arr2xml($test_array, 'utf-8', 'listdata');
$output = $clArr2xml->get_xml();
print $output; 

class arr2xml
{
var $array = array();
var $xml = '';
var $root_name = '';
var $charset = '';

public function __construct($array, $charset = 'utf-8', $root_name = 'root')
{
    header ("content-type: text/xml");
    $this->array = $array;
    $this->root_name = $root_name;
    $this->charset = $charset;

    if (is_array($array) && count($array) > 0) {
        $this->struct_xml($array);

    } else {
        $this->xml .= "no data";
    }
}

public function struct_xml($array)
{
    foreach ($array as $k => $v) {
        if (is_array($v)) {
            $tag = ereg_replace('^[0-9]{1,}', 'item', $k); // replace numeric key in array to 'data'
            $this->xml .= "<$tag>";
            $this->struct_xml($v);
            $this->xml .= "</$tag>";
        } else {
            $tag = ereg_replace('^[0-9]{1,}', 'item', $k); // replace numeric key in array to 'data'
            $this->xml .= "<$tag><![CDATA[$v]]></$tag>";
        }
    }
}

public function get_xml()
{

    $header = "<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"" . $this->charset . "\"?><" . $this->root_name . ">";
    $footer = "</" . $this->root_name . ">";

    return $header . $this->xml . $footer;
}
}

我希望这对大家都有帮助。

您也可以通过DOM来实现这一点。请参阅下面的代码。

<?php

$el = array();
$command = array();

$dom = new DOMDocument('1.0', 'utf-8');
$dom->formatOutput = true;

$xml_array = [
    'root'=>[
    'Good guy' => [
        'name' => [
            '_cdata' => 'Luke Skywalker'
        ],
        'weapon' => 'Lightsaber'
    ],
    'Bad guy' => [
        'name' => 'Sauron',
        'weapon' => 'Evil Eye'
    ]
        ]
];

convert_xml($xml_array);

if(!empty($el))
{
    $dom->appendChild(end($el));
}

echo $dom->saveXML();

?>

<?php

 function convert_xml($Xml)
{
    global $el, $dom;

        foreach($Xml as $id=>$val)
        {
            if(is_numeric($id))
            {
                $id = "Item".($id);
            }

            $id = str_replace(' ', '-', strtolower($id));

            if(is_array($val))
            {
                $ele = $dom->createElement($id);
                array_push($el, $ele);
                convert_xml($val);
            }
            else
            {
                $ele = $dom->createElement($id, $val);

                if(!empty($el))
                {
                    $com = end($el)->appendChild($ele);
                }
                else
                {
                    $dom->appendChild($ele);
                }

            }
        }

        if(sizeof($el) > 1)
        {
            $child = end($el);
            $com = prev($el)->appendChild($child);
            array_pop($el);
        }
}

?>

<?php
function array_to_xml(array $arr, SimpleXMLElement $xml)
{
    foreach ($arr as $k => $v) {
        is_array($v)
            ? array_to_xml($v, $xml->addChild($k))
            : $xml->addChild($k, $v);
    }
    return $xml;
}

$test_array = array (
    'bla' => 'blub',
    'foo' => 'bar',
    'another_array' => array (
        'stack' => 'overflow',
    ),
);

echo array_to_xml($test_array, new SimpleXMLElement('<root/>'))->asXML();

这里有一个函数帮我解决了这个问题:

就像这样叫它

echo arrayToXml("response",$arrayIWantToConvert);
function arrayToXml($thisNodeName,$input){
        if(is_numeric($thisNodeName))
            throw new Exception("cannot parse into xml. remainder :".print_r($input,true));
        if(!(is_array($input) || is_object($input))){
            return "<$thisNodeName>$input</$thisNodeName>";
        }
        else{
            $newNode="<$thisNodeName>";
            foreach($input as $key=>$value){
                if(is_numeric($key))
                    $key=substr($thisNodeName,0,strlen($thisNodeName)-1);
                $newNode.=arrayToXml3($key,$value);
            }
            $newNode.="</$thisNodeName>";
            return $newNode;
        }
    }

// Structered array for XML convertion. $data_array = array( array( '#xml_tag' => 'a', '#xml_value' => '', '#tag_attributes' => array( array( 'name' => 'a_attr_name', 'value' => 'a_attr_value', ), ), '#subnode' => array( array( '#xml_tag' => 'aa', '#xml_value' => 'aa_value', '#tag_attributes' => array( array( 'name' => 'aa_attr_name', 'value' => 'aa_attr_value', ), ), '#subnode' => FALSE, ), ), ), array( '#xml_tag' => 'b', '#xml_value' => 'b_value', '#tag_attributes' => FALSE, '#subnode' => FALSE, ), array( '#xml_tag' => 'c', '#xml_value' => 'c_value', '#tag_attributes' => array( array( 'name' => 'c_attr_name', 'value' => 'c_attr_value', ), array( 'name' => 'c_attr_name_1', 'value' => 'c_attr_value_1', ), ), '#subnode' => array( array( '#xml_tag' => 'ca', '#xml_value' => 'ca_value', '#tag_attributes' => FALSE, '#subnode' => array( array( '#xml_tag' => 'caa', '#xml_value' => 'caa_value', '#tag_attributes' => array( array( 'name' => 'caa_attr_name', 'value' => 'caa_attr_value', ), ), '#subnode' => FALSE, ), ), ), ), ), ); // creating object of SimpleXMLElement $xml_object = new SimpleXMLElement('<?xml version=\"1.0\"?><student_info></student_info>'); // function call to convert array to xml array_to_xml($data_array, $xml_object); // saving generated xml file $xml_object->asXML('/tmp/test.xml'); /** * Converts an structured PHP array to XML. * * @param Array $data_array * The array data for converting into XML. * @param Object $xml_object * The SimpleXMLElement Object * * @see https://gist.github.com/drupalista-br/9230016 * */ function array_to_xml($data_array, &$xml_object) { foreach($data_array as $node) { $subnode = $xml_object->addChild($node['#xml_tag'], $node['#xml_value']); if ($node['#tag_attributes']) { foreach ($node['#tag_attributes'] as $tag_attributes) { $subnode->addAttribute($tag_attributes['name'], $tag_attributes['value']); } } if ($node['#subnode']) { array_to_xml($node['#subnode'], $subnode); } } }

如果冗长的xml不成问题，可以使用xmlrpc_encode从数组创建xml。 www.php.net/xmlrpc_encode

注意，如果使用关联键和/或数字键，创建的XML会有所不同

<?php
// /params/param/value/struct/member
// there is a tag "member" for each element
// "member" contains a tag "name". its value is the associative key
$xml1 = xmlrpc_encode(array('a'=>'b','c'=>'d'));
$simplexml1 = simplexml_load_string($xml1);
print_r($xml1);
print_r($simplexml1);

// /params/param/value/array/data
// there is a tag "data" for each element
// "data" doesn't contain the tag "name"
$xml2 = xmlrpc_encode(array('a','b'));
$simplexml2 = simplexml_load_string($xml2);
print_r($xml2);
print_r($simplexml2);
?>
