The tricky bit is converting the xml you have into the csv or text data
you want.
And to do that, you need to understand the structure of the xml data that
you are receiving and how the xml nodes and their attributes and values
should be mapped into the csv file you want to create.
Unfortunately I don't think that there is a single standard mechanism for
doing that bit, although there are some tools and libraries that can help.
