Parse an XML File and Append New Elements
To see the content of the BookSample.xml file that's referenced in this sample, see N/xml Module Script Samples.
The following sample shows how to parse an xml file and append new xml element nodes.
Note:
This sample script uses the require function so that you can copy it into the SuiteScript Debugger and test it. You must use the define function in an entry point script (the script you attach to a script record and deploy). For more information, see SuiteScript 2.x Script Basics and SuiteScript 2.x Script Types.

require(['N/xml','N/file'], function(xml,file) {
var xmlData = file.load('SuiteScripts/BookSample.xml').getContents();
var bookShelf = xml.Parser.fromString({
text: xmlData
});
var newBookNode = bookShelf.createElement("book");
var newTitleNode = bookShelf.createElement("title");
var newTitleNodeValue = bookShelf.createTextNode("");
var newAuthorNode = bookShelf.createElement("author");
var newAuthorNodeValue = bookShelf.createTextNode("");
newBookNode.appendChild(newTitleNode);
newBookNode.appendChild(newAuthorNode);
newTitleNode.appendChild(newTitleNodeValue);
newAuthorNode.appendChild(newAuthorNodeValue);
});
