let's say I have a lot of property for rent offers in xml file. Is it possible to create asset listing based on this xml file?

Matrix can read standard RSS format XML using the RSS Reader asset. This is part of the commercial Data package.

3

is it possible to create such asset in php ?
how much is this commercial package?

You can contact the Squiz Sales team (check www.squiz.net for contact information) about the pricing for the commercial packages. All of the code for MySource Matrix is written in PHP.


You could write your own asset in PHP that would read this XML file itself.

You would need to find or be an experienced PHP developer to write assets for MySource Matrix.

    <? echo 'hello'; ?>
and how to implement this asset by matrix…
