Hi there, I a have a few 1000 xml files that I want to integrate into Drupal.

Can someone outline what kinds of things do I need to learn? Here are a few specific questions I have:

• How do I import the documents into Drupal's DB? Is there an API or a

description of the sql needed?

Check http://drupal.org/node/135530 Also http://drupal.org/project/feedparser http://drupal.org/project/feedapi

• How do I publish those new documents back? I guess I need to create a

new node type, but didn't find a good HowTo. Can I use XSLT transformations to render the content?

I think a study of the above should help answer these.
