How it works

Laravel XML provides a facade that you can use throughout your application: 
use XML;

// Import XML and cast to models
$notes = XML::import('notes.xml')
    ->cast('note')->to(Note::class)
    ->optimize('camelcase')
    ->get();

// Export arrays to XML
XML::export($data)
    ->rootTag('notes')
    ->toString();
The package integrates seamlessly with Laravel’s service container and supports auto-discovery, so you can start using it immediately after installation.
