xml2node

Import XML-Content from 3rd party systems (or any external content) to Drupal nodes using drupal queue and batch api. This is done either manually by uploading a file and import it with batch api or automatically by providing some hotfolders which will be scanned on cron. The XML files must follow a specific structure.
