Importing XML or CSV to Grav as separate posts

• Without any information about the content of XML there is not much to say.
• “There’s one old plugin that supposed to do it”
  Which plugin?

Feed Us
I installed it, and from what I can tell, it’s simply a plugin where you add the code to the template and it will display them on a page. Handy for some things, but not what I’m looking for.

• “I did see one post on importing from a XML feed”
  Which post?

Import custom xml feed

Does anybody knows a solution for importing a custom xml feed to a page content? I found the plugin Twig-Feeds. But it can´t handle custom feeds like this: http://ender-zuggal.at.news.atikon.at/content/klienteninfo.xml Any way to use this feed with grav?

The response is to create a plugin, which I’m ok if I have to do it, but I’ve never done one like this, and obviously not for Grav.

• “but I’m not seeing a way to import them into Grav as actual posts”.
  Grav is a flat file CMS, which means that posts are a folder containing a plain file. “Importing” is a matter of creating files.

I understand that, that’s the problem. If it was a database, I could build something to import what I have. It’s the pulling the info and separating out the posts to individual files that I’m lost on. I don’t actually think you can do it with a plugin, but if anyone knows a script or method that can do it externally, that at least lets me have the individual posts that I can work with. Given that I have almost 200 posts to import, anything to cut down on the manual work would be very helpful!
