How do you replace a tag name in XML in suitescript from file.file object?

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

To replace a tag name in XML in SuiteScript from a file.file object, you can use the

N/xml

module. This module provides methods for parsing and generating XML documents. Here's a general approach: 1. Load the file using the

N/file

module and get its contents. 2. Parse the XML content using

N/xml

module's

xml.Parser.fromString

method. 3. Traverse the XML document and find the tag you want to replace using the

getElementsByTagName

method. 4. Replace the tag name with the new name. 5. Convert the updated XML document back to a string using

xml.Parser.toString

method. 6. Create a new file with the updated XML content and save it. Here's a code snippet from the threads that demonstrates how to replace tag values in an XML document:

javascript
const sourceTagStart = '<AddtlRmtInf>';
const sourceTagEnd = '</AddtlRmtInf>';
const destinationTagStart = '<AddtlNtryInf>';
const destinationTagEnd = '</AddtlNtryInf>';

// Extract values between source tags
const tagValues = [];
let startIndex = fileContent.indexOf(sourceTagStart);
let endIndex;
while (startIndex !== -1) {
    endIndex = fileContent.indexOf(sourceTagEnd, startIndex + sourceTagStart.length);
    if (endIndex === -1) {
        log.error({title: 'End tag not found', details: 'The end tag was not found in the file content.'});
        return;
    }
    tagValues.push(fileContent.substring(startIndex + sourceTagStart.length, endIndex));
    startIndex = fileContent.indexOf(sourceTagStart, endIndex + sourceTagEnd.length);
}

// Replace destination tags with values
startIndex = fileContent.indexOf(destinationTagStart);
let tagIndex = 0;
while (startIndex !== -1 && tagIndex < tagValues.length) {
    endIndex = fileContent.indexOf(destinationTagEnd, startIndex + destinationTagStart.length);
    if (endIndex === -1) {
        log.error({title: 'End tag not found', details: 'The end tag was not found in the file content.'});
        return;
    }
    fileContent = fileContent.substring(0, startIndex + destinationTagStart.length) +
        tagValues[tagIndex] +
        fileContent.substring(endIndex);
    tagIndex++;
    startIndex = fileContent.indexOf(destinationTagStart, endIndex + destinationTagEnd.length);
}

// Save the updated file
const updatedFile = file.create({
    name: myFile.name,
    fileType: myFile.fileType,
    contents: fileContent,
    folder: myFile.folder
});
const updatedFileId = updatedFile.save();
log.debug({title: 'Updated File ID', details: updatedFileId});
