In Node.js, you could create this using [jsdom](https://github.com/jsdom/jsdom) as follows: + +```js +const { JSDOM } = require("jsdom"); + +const { document } = new JSDOM().window; +const node = document.createElement("akomaNtoso"); +``` + +Then, you use this package as follows: + + +```js +const serialize = require("w3c-xmlserializer"); + +console.log(serialize(node)); +// => '<akomantoso xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"></akomantoso>' +``` + +## `requireWellFormed` option + +By default the input DOM tree is not required to be "well-formed"; any given input will serialize to some output string. You can instead require well-formedness via + +```js +serialize(node, { requireWellFormed: true }); +``` + +which will cause `Error`s to be thrown when non-well-formed constructs are encountered. [Per the spec](https://w3c.github.io/DOM-Parsing/#dfn-require-well-formed), this largely is about imposing constraints on the names of elements, attributes, etc. + +As a point of reference, on the web platform: + +* The [`innerHTML` getter](https://w3c.github.io/DOM-Parsing/#dom-innerhtml-innerhtml) uses the require-well-formed mode, i.e. trying to get the `innerHTML` of non-well-formed subtrees will throw. +* The [`xhr.send()` method](https://xhr.spec.whatwg.org/#the-send()-method) does not require well-formedness, i.e. sending non-well-formed `Document`s will serialize and send them anyway. |
