Some PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages.

Informations about the package php-xml-builder

8fold XML Builder for PHP

XML Builder is designed to build a string, not a document object model (DOM) or abstract syntax tree (AST).

For DOM or AST, there are other libraries and native implementations (ex. PHP:DOM and SimpleXML).

You might use XML Builder to generate a string you feed into either PHP:DOM or Simple XML. Or, use the string as the body of an HTTP response.

Use the Element class to create individual nodes within the document.

Use the Document class to generate the doctype declaration and root level element.

Details

The origins of this library was an experiment where PHP was viewed as a "pure" programming language, not a template engine that grew into being a language.

The primary pain point was to maintain the feel of writing human-readable XML (tabs and spaces) while reducing the risk of human error; specifically, mismatched beginning and end tags.

The secondary pain point was that PHP:DOM and SimpleXML felt cumbersome when generating XML and HTML documents.
