Using Javascript I want to import an XML from url and then convert it to JSON

Using Javascript... I am trying to figure out how to import the xml from here:
http://gamebattles.majorleaguegaming.com/xboxone/call-of-duty-black-ops-iii/team/team-cnk/stats.xml
and then convert it into Json so I can use it with AngularJS and display it on a front end app.
Any help would be appreciated.

Joe -
You can use jQuery to get the data from that URL and parse the XML.
https://api.jquery.com/jquery.get/
https://api.jquery.com/jQuery.parseXML/
From there you need to determine whether you want to convert it into JSON or use it as is. There is not a simple and clean way to convert XML to JSON due to the attributes fields present, but here is an example of some code to do it:
https://davidwalsh.name/convert-xml-json
If you are having cross domain issues, you will need to request that data server side with PHP, Java, Node.js or your back end of choice. You can do it with such things like this:
JAVA : http://docs.oracle.com/javaee/6/api/javax/servlet/http/HttpServletRequest.html
PHP: http://php.net/manual/en/function.file-get-contents.php
Node.js : https://davidwalsh.name/nodejs-http-request

Convert XML to JSON with pebble.js

I am writing a small application for my Pebble. The intent is to send web services to a server and then process the XML response. The problem here is that Pebble.JS does not support XML responses, only text or JSON responses. I am looking for a way to convert the response to JSON to easily make use of the information. I cannot find a working way for Pebble.JS to accomplish this.
Does anyone know how to get the attributes and the child elements (with its attributes) of the XML in JSON in Pebble.JS?
Thanks!

You could use a Node XML Parser like this one (https://github.com/Leonidas-from-XIV/node-xml2js) and make it compatible to a "browser" with Browserify (https://github.com/substack/node-browserify).
Browserify usage:
browserify raw-app.js -o compiled-app.js
I think you need to have nodejs installed too but this isn´t a big problem.
Here some code which written on-the-fly:
var xml2js = require('xml2js');
var xml = "<root>This is a root object!<child>This a child</child></root>"
xml2js.parseString(xml, function (error, result) {
console.log(result); // JSObject
});

The issue is that jQuery Mobile does not support responses coming in as XML. I have quite annoyingly run into this issue before. The way I got around it was by creating my own JSON Object with the expected response tags in the following way:
var IDs = message.match(/<id>(.*?)<\/id>/g);
var tempID = IDs[0].replace('<id>','').replace('</id>','');
That's just a part from my actual project that I was working on this for. It will require a little bit of modifying as per your needs to get it to how you want it. You likely will want to have that second line inside a loop with some other arrays from your .match() calls, when making your JSON Object. At the end, you need to use the JSON.parse(...); function call to assign a variable the JSON addressable object you've made.

Creating JSON object from text file values

I want to convert the plaintext Public Suffix List to JSON object so as to use it in my script. I just want the list of TLD's.
The list is here https://publicsuffix.org/list/effective_tld_names.dat
My initial thought was to regex match the file for suffix list but I don't know how to regex files in javascript. I'm kind of new to javascript.
Anyone having idea, how to achieve this. Thank You

First off, the list doesn't seem to be allowed to do cross-domain, so direct AJAX to the resource isn't possible.
What you can do is have your server load it for you (PHP: file_get_contents, JS: http.get). Then, implement a parser. I'm not familiar with the format of the file, but you can read the file line by line, skip blank lines and lines with //. Then load them into an array (PHP: array_push, JS: Array.prototype.push), serialize (PHP: json_encode, JS: JSON.serialize) and ship as JSON to your app.

How should I parse XML-like data in JavaScript?

I have data sets similar to this:
<NDL>
<REPLICA 4925770B:0025BA85>
<VIEW OF64623968:A2336DB0-ON49256C46:002ACF42>
<NOTE OFA52D3E8C:0ED3F84A-ON605F586A:5D1C1FAA>
<HINT>CN=YW8LN6/O=TDK-JP</HINT>
<REM>Database 'Shunya Sato', View '受信ボックス', Document '[Requirement management system - Feature #125] (New) Collect example of LN link'</REM>
</NDL>
I need to retrieve the content enclosed by the <HINT> tag, and the pseudo-attributes in the , and tags. Is there some lib that could help me out with this, or is the best way to hope that everything will always be in this order and use split/find/other builtin stuff?

Unfortunately, unless you write a custom parser that can turn what you have into XML, you won't be able to use any traditional XML libraries to read your data. The only reason that people can perform XML queries over HTML is because there are clearly defined ways to convert HTML into a DOM, which can then be converted into XML. The same cannot be said for your data.
While your data may resemble XML, the only thing it has in common is the use of < and > to delimit fields. As such, you are probably just better off using string searching and spliting to get the fields you need.

Generate a Word document in JavaScript with Docx.js?

I am trying to use docx.js to generate a Word document but I can't seem to get it to work.
I copied the raw code into the Google Chrome console after amending line 247 to fix a "'textAlign' undefined error"
if (inNode.style && inNode.style.textAlign){..}
Which makes the function convertContent available. The result of which is an Object e.g.
JSON.stringify( convertContent($('<p>Word!</p>)[0]) )
Results in -
"{"string":
"<w:body>
<w:p>
<w:r>
<w:t xml:space=\"preserve\">Word!</w:t>
</w:r>
</w:p>
</w:body>"
,"charSpaceCount":5
,"charCount":5,
"pCount":1}"
I copied
<w:body>
<w:p>
<w:r>
<w:t xml:space="preserve">Word!</w:t>
</w:r>
</w:p>
</w:body>
into Notepad++ and saved it as a file with an extension of 'docx' but when I open it in MS Word but it says 'cannot be opened because there is a problem with the contents'.
Am I missing some attribute or XML tags or something?

You can generate a Docx Document from a template using docxtemplater (library I have created).
It can replace tags by their values (like a template engine), and also replace images in a paid version.
Here is a demo of the templating engine: https://docxtemplater.com/demo/

This code can't work on a JSFiddle because of the ajaxCalls to local files (everything that is in the blankfolder), or you should enter all files in ByteArray format and use the jsFiddle echo API: http://doc.jsfiddle.net/use/echo.html

I know this is an older question and you already have an answer, but I struggled getting this to work for a day, so I thought I'd share my results.
Like you, I had to fix the textAlign bug by changing the line to this:
if (inNode.style && inNode.style.textAlign)
Also, it didn't handle HTML comments. So, I had to add the following line above the check for a "#text" node in the for loop:
if (inNodeChild.nodeName === '#comment') continue;
To create the docx was tricky since there is absolutely no documentation on this thing as of yet. But looking through the code, I see that it is expecting the HTML to be in a File object. For my purposes, I wanted to use the HTML I rendered, not some HTML file the user has to select to upload. So I had to trick it by making my own object with the same property that it was looking for and pass it in. To save it to the client, I use FileSaver.js, which requires a blob. I included this function that converts base64 into a blob. So my code to implement it is this:
var result = docx({ DOM: $('#myDiv')[0] });
var blob = b64toBlob(result.base64, "application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.document");
saveAs(blob, "test.docx");
In the end, this would work for simple Word documents, but isn't nearly sophisticated for anything more. I couldn't get any of my styles to render and I didn't even attempt to get images working. I've since abandoned this approach and am now researching DocxgenJS or some server-side solution.

You are doing the correct thing codewise, but your file is not a valid docx file. If you look through the docx() function in docx.js, you will see that a docx file is actually a zip containing several xml files.

I am using Open Xml SDK for JavaScript.
http://ericwhite.com/blog/open-xml-sdk-for-javascript/
Basically, on web server, I have a empty docx file as new template.
when user in browser click new docx file, I will retrieve the empty docx file as template, convert it to BASE64 and return it as Ajax response.
in client scripts, you convert the BASE64 string to byte array and using openxmlsdk.js to load the byte array as an javascript OpenXmlPackage object.
once you have the package loaded, you can use regular OpenXmlPart to create a real document. (inserting image, creating table/row ).
the last step is stream it out to end user as a document. this part is security related. in my code I send it back to webserver and gets saved temporarily. and prepare a http response to notify end user to download it.
Check the URL above, there are useful samples of doing this in JavaScript.
