What is XML to Go Converter?

Building Go microservices or working with Kubernetes and need to convert XML to Go structs? This tool generates clean, efficient Go structs from XML data. Perfect for cloud-native applications, API development, and systems integration.

Instead of manually writing Go structs for XML parsing, paste your XML (eXtensible Markup Language) and get ready-to-use code. The converter automatically generates XML tags for marshaling/unmarshaling with Go's encoding/xml package.

Everything runs in your browser. Your XML never leaves your machine – generate, download, and start using the structs right away. Works perfectly with Go's encoding/xml and all Go versions.

How to Use XML to Go

Follow these steps to convert XML to Go structs. Each step uses the actual buttons and panels on this page.

1

Paste, Upload, or Load Sample

Paste XML into the left XML Input panel, or click Upload to load a file. Click Sample to load example data. Example:

<subscribers><subscriber><subscriberId>SUB-1001</subscriberId><plan>Unlimited 5G</plan><dataUsage>45.2</dataUsage></subscriber></subscribers>

Use Clear to start fresh. You can also validate your XML first if needed.

2

Configure Options

Set Struct Name and Package in the config panel. Toggle XML Tags to enable automatic XML tag generation for marshaling. The right Go Output panel shows the generated structs instantly.

3

Download or Copy

Click Download to save the Go file, or Copy to copy to your clipboard. All processing runs in your browser – your XML never leaves your computer.

When You'd Actually Use This

Microservices

Generate Go structs from XML configs for microservice architectures. Create data models for XML-based API responses or inter-service communication.

API Development

Convert XML API responses to Go structs. Handle SOAP APIs, XML-based web services, or legacy system integrations with generated Go structs.

Cloud-Native Apps

Generate Go structs from XML configurations for cloud applications. Perfect for Kubernetes operators, serverless functions, or containerized services.

System Integration

Generate Go code from XML schemas for enterprise integration. Create data models for EDI, SOAP, or XML-based system-to-system communication.

Common Questions

Is my XML data stored?

Nope. Everything happens right in your browser. Your XML Schema never leaves your computer – we don't even see it.

How are XML elements handled?

XML elements become Go structs. Attributes become struct fields, and nested elements become nested structs or references. Arrays become Go slices. Check out the XPath for more details.

Can I use the generated Go code?

Yes. The generated Go code is valid and ready to use. Drop it into your Go project and start using it. You may want to review and refine the structs for your specific use case.

What about XML tags?

You can enable XML tags in the configuration options. This generates Go structs with XML tags for proper marshaling and unmarshaling with Go's encoding/xml package.

Does it work with large XML files?

Yep. Since everything happens in your browser, it depends on your device. Small to medium XML structures convert instantly. Really huge structures might take a few seconds.

What Go version is supported?

The generated code works with Go 1.13 and later. It uses standard Go features and follows Go conventions for maximum compatibility.
