title: "transform.Unmarshal"
description: "`transform.Unmarshal` (alias `unmarshal`) parses the input and converts it into a map or an array. Supported formats are JSON, TOML, YAML, XML and CSV."
date: 2018-12-23
categories: [functions]
menu:
docs:
parent: "functions"
keywords: []
signature: ["RESOURCE or STRING | transform.Unmarshal [OPTIONS]"]
hugoversion: "0.53"
aliases: []
---
The function accepts either a `Resource` created in [Hugo Pipes](/hugo-pipes/) or via [Page Bundles](/content-management/page-bundles/), or simply a string. The two examples below will produce the same map:
```go-html-template
{{ $greetings := "hello = \"Hello Hugo\"" | transform.Unmarshal }}`
```
```go-html-template
{{ $greetings := "hello = \"Hello Hugo\"" | resources.FromString "data/greetings.toml" | transform.Unmarshal }}
```
In both the above examples, you get a map you can work with:
```go-html-template
{{ $greetings.hello }}
```
The above prints `Hello Hugo`.
## CSV Options
Unmarshal with CSV as input has some options you can set:
delimiter
: The delimiter used, default is `,`.
comment
: The comment character used in the CSV. If set, lines beginning with the comment character without preceding whitespace are ignored.:
Example:
```go-html-template
{{ $csv := "a;b;c" | transform.Unmarshal (dict "delimiter" ";") }}
```
## XML data
As a convenience, Hugo allows you to access XML data in the same way that you access JSON, TOML, and YAML: you do not need to specify the root node when accessing the data.
To get the contents of `<title>` in the document below, you use `{{ .message.title }}`:
```
<root>
<message>
<title>Hugo rocks!</title>
<description>Thanks for using Hugo</description>
</message>
</root>
```
The following example lists the items of an RSS feed:
```
{{ with resources.Get "https://example.com/rss.xml" | transform.Unmarshal }}
{{ range .channel.item }}
<strong>{{ .title | plainify | htmlUnescape }}</strong><br />
<p>{{ .description | plainify | htmlUnescape }}</p>
{{ $link := .link | plainify | htmlUnescape }}
<a href="{{ $link }}">{{ $link }}</a><br />
<hr>
{{ end }}
{{ end }}
```
