Node XML Stream Parser

node-xml-stream-parser (current version 1.0.12) is a lightweight, fast XML/HTML stream parser designed for Node.js environments. It specializes in processing streaming XML, making it particularly suitable for tasks like parsing RSS, ATOM, or RDF feeds efficiently. The library's focus is on simplicity and performance, emitting events for `opentag`, `closetag`, `text`, `cdata`, and `instruction` as it processes the stream. It differentiates itself from more heavy-weight parsers (like `node-sax`) by offering a streamlined API and intentionally omitting support for less common XML features like comments, DOCTYPES, and ENTITY declarations, optimizing for speed and minimal overhead. It has seen consistent, though not rapid, updates, with the latest publish around 6 years ago on NPM, but GitHub activity suggests some more recent minor updates, making it a `maintenance` status.
