• Fixed character validity checks to work with node.js 4.0 and 5.0. See #161.

[9.0.0] - 2017-05-05

• Removed case conversion options.
• Removed support for node.js 4.0 and 5.0. Minimum required version is now 6.0.
• Fixed valid char filter to use XML 1.1 instead of 1.0. See #147.
• Added options for negative indentation and suppressing pretty printing of text nodes. See #145.

[8.2.2] - 2016-04-08

• Falsy values can now be used as a text node in callback mode.

[8.2.1] - 2016-04-07

• Falsy values can now be used as a text node. See #117.

[8.2.0] - 2016-04-01

• Removed lodash dependency to keep the library small and simple. See #114, #53, and #43.
• Added title case to name conversion options.

[8.1.0] - 2016-03-29

• Added the callback option to the begin export function. When used with a callback function, the XML document will be generated in chunks and each chunk will be passed to the supplied function. In this mode, begin uses a different code path and the builder should use much less memory since the entire XML tree is not kept. There are a few drawbacks though. For example, traversing the document tree or adding attributes to a node after it is written is not possible. It is also not possible to remove nodes or attributes.

var result = '';

builder.begin(function(chunk) { result += chunk; })
  .dec()
  .ele('root')
    .ele('xmlbuilder').up()
  .end();

• Replaced native Object.assign with lodash.assign to support old JS engines. See #111.

[8.0.0] - 2016-03-25

• Added the begin export function. See the wiki for details.
• Added the ability to add comments and processing instructions before and after the root element. Added commentBefore, commentAfter, instructionBefore and instructionAfter functions for this purpose.
• Dropped support for old node.js releases. Minimum required node.js version is now 4.0.

[7.0.0] - 2016-03-21

• Processing instructions are now created as regular nodes. This is a major breaking change if you are using processing instructions. Previously processing instructions were inserted before their parent node. After this change processing instructions are appended to the children of the parent node. Note that it is not currently possible to insert processing instructions before or after the root element.

  root.ele('node').ins('pi');
  // pre-v7
  <?pi?><node/>
  // v7
  <node><?pi?></node>
  

[6.0.0] - 2016-03-20

• Added custom XML writers. The default string conversion functions are now collected under the XMLStringWriter class which can be accessed by the stringWriter(options) function exported by the module. An XMLStreamWriter is also added which outputs the XML document to a writable stream. A stream writer can be created by calling the streamWriter(stream, options) function exported by the module. Both classes are heavily customizable and the details are added to the wiki. It is also possible to write an XML writer from scratch and use it when calling end() on the XML document.

[5.0.1] - 2016-03-08

• Moved require statements for text case conversion to the top of files to reduce lazy requires.
