Issue with method "attribute" in XMLNode lib #210

Closed dexter1023 closed 5 years ago

dexter1023 commented 5 years ago

Hi, I've got that error while create xml document from object: TypeError: this.attribute is not a function at XMLDocument.element (/node_modules/xmlbuilder/lib/XMLNode.js:131:32) I checked code and there's no implementation of function "attribute".

Can you post your code please?

For anyone wondering, this happens when you try to add an attribute to the document instead of an element. Example:

builder.create({
  root: {
    child: 'value'
  },
  '@attr': 'value'
});

Uncaught TypeError TypeError: this.attribute is not a function

Instead of

builder.create({
  root: {
    child: 'value',
    '@attr': 'value', // root attr, not childs
  },
});

<root attr="value"><child>value</child></root>
