blog-parser is a Java library to parse blog exports into strongly-typed data object model. This is particularly useful when you want to allow your application to import data from existing blogs.

Usage

Initialize the right parser for your blog export and pass it the file contents of the export, like

File file = new File("blogger-export.xml");
String xml = org.apache.commons.io.FileUtils.readFileToString(file);
BloggerParser parser = new BloggerParser();
Blog blog = parser.parse(xml);

or, you may use the utility class BlogParser as:

File file = new File("wordpress-export.xml");
String xml = org.apache.commons.io.FileUtils.readFileToString(file);
Blog blog = BlogParser.parse(xml, BlogType.Wordpress);

and you are done! The Blog object represents the parsed entities.
