XML IonToXml

XML IonToXml

Certified

Convert an ION file to the XML format

Each ION record becomes a child element wrapped under a configurable root element (default: items). The full record set is loaded into memory during conversion; for very large datasets, prefer IonToParquet or IonToJson instead.

yaml
type: io.kestra.plugin.serdes.xml.IonToXml

Read a CSV file, transform it and store the transformed data as an XML file.

yaml
id: ion_to_xml
namespace: company.team

tasks:
  - id: download_csv
    type: io.kestra.plugin.core.http.Download
    description: salaries of data professionals from 2020 to 2023 (source ai-jobs.net)
    uri: https://huggingface.co/datasets/kestra/datasets/raw/main/csv/salaries.csv

  - id: avg_salary_by_job_title
    type: io.kestra.plugin.jdbc.duckdb.Query
    inputFiles:
      data.csv: "{{ outputs.download_csv.uri }}"
    sql: |
      SELECT
        job_title,
        ROUND(AVG(salary),2) AS avg_salary
      FROM read_csv_auto('{{ workingDir }}/data.csv', header=True)
      GROUP BY job_title
      HAVING COUNT(job_title) > 10
      ORDER BY avg_salary DESC;
    store: true

  - id: result
    type: io.kestra.plugin.serdes.xml.IonToXml
    from: "{{ outputs.avg_salary_by_job_title.uri }}"
Installation

Our standard Docker images already include this plugin. If you use a -slim image or another setup, install it with the following command:
