Mapping XML element of basic type with attributes

[gcharita]

Mapping an XML element that have other elements of basic type and attributes:

<Person gender="male">
    <FirstName>First</FirstName>
    <LastName>Last</LastName>
</Person>

is easy:

class Person: XMLMappable {
    var nodeName: String!
    
    var gender: String?
    var firstName: String?
    var lastName: String?
    
    required init(map: XMLMap) {
        
    }
    
    func mapping(map: XMLMap) {
        gender <- map.attributes["gender"]
        firstName <- map["FirstName"]
        lastName <- map["LastName"]
    }
}

But if I try to map an XML element of basic type (like Person below) that have attributes:

<root>
    <Person gender="male">First Last</Person>
</root>

Using this:

class Root: XMLMappable {
    var nodeName: String!
    
    var person: String?
    
    required init(map: XMLMap) {
        
    }
    
    func mapping(map: XMLMap) {
        person <- map["Person"]
    }
}

I am getting nil in person property and using this:

class Root: XMLMappable {
    var nodeName: String!
    
    var person: Person?
    
    required init(map: XMLMap) {
        
    }
    
    func mapping(map: XMLMap) {
        person <- map["Person"]
    }
}

class Person: XMLMappable {
    var nodeName: String!
    
    var gender: String?
    var name: String?
    
    required init(map: XMLMap) {
        
    }
    
    func mapping(map: XMLMap) {
        gender <- map.attributes["gender"]
        //name <- get somehow innertext
    }
}

I am getting correctly the gender attribute but I don't know how to get Person's name.

With the next release (probably 1.4.2) you can map directly the text of the current XML node using the innerText property of XMLMap like:

class Person: XMLMappable {
    var nodeName: String!
    
    var gender: String?
    var name: String?
    
    required init(map: XMLMap) {
        
    }
    
    func mapping(map: XMLMap) {
        gender <- map.attributes["gender"]
        name <- map.innerText
    }
}
