Dear Learner,

We hope you are doing good.

I would request you to use the XMLloader.jar to read the XML file. Please download the same from the below link:


Suppose we have input data as:

<Document>
<name>Tejas</name>
</Document>

Now we can read the XML data using the below commands after going in the grunt shell:

register /home/edureka/Desktop/XMLloader.jar;
 
pigdata = load '/xml1.xml' USING XMLLoader('name') as (doc:chararray);
 
values = foreach pigdata GENERATE FLATTEN(REGEX_EXTRACT_ALL(doc,'<name>(.*)</name>')) AS (name:chararray);
 
dump values;
 
Please refer to the below screen shot of the output which we are getting at our end:

 

Please try this and let us know if you face any issue.

I will wait for your response.
