Yes, you said that already.

What part are you stuck on?

- have you managed to read the XML into node-red?
- have you managed to convert the XML to JS Object?
- Have you got anything showing in chart?

I guess you mean [this article](https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S221282712100127X)? I dont think the author is on this forum & that article doesnt seem to have any attachments

Sorry but what you are saying makes no sense.

An XML file can be read directly by Node-RED using the core file-in and XML nodes. But what that has to do with "compare with Node-RED", we can't understand. If you mean that you want to compare two different versions of an XML file, that would make sense - is that what you are trying to do?
