Server

This example code opens the meta.xml of the resource it belongs to, and prints all attributes of the <info> node to the console.

local meta = xmlLoadFile ( "meta.xml" )
local info = xmlFindChild ( meta, "info", 0)
if info then
    local attrs = xmlNodeGetAttributes ( info )
    for name,value in pairs(attrs) do
        outputConsole ( name .. " = " .. value )
    end
end
xmlUnloadFile ( meta )

If the meta.xml looked like this:

<meta>
    <info type="gamemode" name="My gamemode" author="me"/>
    ...
</meta>

Then the above code would output (not necessarily in this order):

type = gamemode
name = My gamemode
author = me
