import { DDEXParser, DDEXBuilder } from 'ddex-suite';

// Parse DDEX XML to structured data
const parser = new DDEXParser();
const result = await parser.parse(xmlContent);

// Access clean, typed data
console.log(result.flat.releases[0].title);

// Modify the data
result.flat.releases[0].title = "Remastered Edition";

// Build back to deterministic XML
const builder = new DDEXBuilder();
const newXml = await builder.build(result.toBuildRequest());
