About

XML files can be loaded into a database for further processing.
Howto

Creation
You can create XML file with the templating module.
Loading
Tabulify supports the loading of XML file into a database. See HowTo - How to load XML files into a database with Tabulify
How to see the first lines
By default, Tabulify treats one XML document as one record (line). By printing it, you would see then always the whole document.
If you want to see the first text lines of a document, you need to set the type to text.
Example:
tabli data head --type text xml/relation.xml@howto
The first 10 rows of the data resource (xml\relation.xml@howto):
lines
