Exporting Json data to XML File in Specific folder in angular

Question

I am setting up a Xml Export functionality, whose function is to convert Json data from DB to Xml and save as .xml file in specific folder.

I tried this link https://shekhargulati.com/2017/07/16/implementing-file-save-functionality-with-angular-4/ but don't save as .Xml file.

I already converted the Json data to Xml data using this code

 this.ordertemplateService.GetOrderTemplate().subscribe((res: any) => {
        console.log(res.data);
        var jxmlparser = require('js2xmlparser');
        if (res != null) {
          result = jxmlparser.parse('OrderTemplate',res.data);
          console.log('back to xml -> %s', result);
}

and the Import too(XML to JSON).

let parseString = require('xml2js').parseString;
       let xml = "<root>Hello xml2js!</root>"

       parseString(xml, function (err, result) {
         console.dir(result);
}

But don't know how to move forward. Please brainstorm me with your knowledge.

You cannot save any file from frontend (Angular, Javascript etc) to a specific folder.

Create an API in backend(nodeJs, Php,Java etc), pass the xml Data to it, and then save the file in the desired location

Yes, you can read the xml file, convert it to json in the frontend and then pass the json data to the API – Adrita Sharma Aug 28 '19 at 08:33
