How to use Nokogiri XML Builder with a field that is the word "text"?

Question

I think that “text” should be a special form, because when I use xml.text “hello”, the tag does not appear in the xml document. Regardless of the fact that the tag is simply specified without a. I tried to use send. (: "Text", "hello"), but this also does not work.

Ideas?

Answer 1

I solved this using the "special tags" in Nokigiri.

Answer 2

This means that you need to add an underscore after the tag name.

Just for clarification with an example for someone who can search for it (like I was):

builder = Nokogiri::XML::Builder.new do |xml|
  xml.questions {
    xml.question {
      xml.text_ "What is your name?"
    }
    xml.question {
      xml.text_ "What is your favourite colour?"
    }
  }
end
