XmlView (class)

Class XmlView

A view class that is used for creating XML responses.

By setting the '_serialize' key in your controller, you can specify a view variable that should be serialized to XML and used as the response for the request. This allows you to omit views + layouts, if your just need to emit a single view variable as the XML response.

In your controller, you could do the following:

$this->set(['posts' => $posts, '_serialize' => true]);

When the view is rendered, the $posts view variable will be serialized into XML.

Note The view variable you specify must be compatible with Xml::fromArray().

You can also define '_serialize' as an array. This will create an additional top level element named <response
