Want to get values from XML in C# in list

Question

Actually I Want to get values from XML in C# in list. There are some specific conditions like. I need to show ruleid, dataprovider, in attribute I want to get name, in conditions in need to get value(20),operator(greaterthan or lessthan) of type="Healthy".

I have attached a image for the example XML.

I tried to parse the data in the following way :

public static void readXml()
    {
        XmlDocument xmldoc = new XmlDocument();
        XmlNodeList xmlnode;
        int i = 0;
        List<Rule> listx = new List<Rule>();

        FileStream fs = new FileStream("C://ConsoleApplication1//sample_manifest.xml", FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read);
        xmldoc.Load(fs);
        xmlnode = xmldoc.GetElementsByTagName("attribute", "condition");
         XmlNodeList list = xmldoc.SelectNodes(@"/psmsmanifiest/rules/rule/attributes");

         foreach (XmlNode node in list)
        {
            foreach (XmlNode childNode in node.ChildNodes)
            {

                //string dataprovider = node["Dataprovider"].Attributes.Item(0);
                var attribute = node["attribute"].InnerXml;
                Console.WriteLine(attribute);
                Console.ReadLine();

         }
        }
    }

Try code below. I fixed the xml tag attribute.

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Xml;
using System.Xml.Linq;

namespace ConsoleApplication1
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            string input =
                "<psmsmanifiest version=\"2\" lastmodified=\"2015-08-06 03:53:06.207\">" +
                  "<rules>" +
                    "<!--sample for runtime data provider-->" +
                    "<rule ruleid=\"8504dcad-f748-4add-9e95-239d5382f1c6\" dataprovider=\"runtime\">" +
                      "<attributes>" +
                        "<attribute name=\"platform.attibute1.value\" type=\"int\">" +
                          "<conditions>" +
                            "<condition type=\"healthy\" operator=\"greaterthan\">100></condition>" +
                            "<condition type=\"unhealthy\" operator=\"greaterthanequal\">100></condition>" +
                          "</conditions>" +
                        "</attribute>" +
                        "<attribute name=\"platform.attibute2.value\" type=\"int\">" +
                          "<conditions>" +
                            "<condition type=\"healthy\" operator=\"greaterthan\">100></condition>" +
                            "<condition type=\"unhealthy\" operator=\"greaterthanequal\">100></condition>" +
                          "</conditions>" +
                        "</attribute>" +
                      "</attributes>" +
                    "</rule>" +
                  "</rules>" +
                "</psmsmanifiest>";

            XDocument doc = XDocument.Parse(input);
            var results = doc.Descendants("rule").Select(x => new
            {
                ruleid = x.Attribute("ruleid").Value,
                dataprovider = x.Attribute("dataprovider").Value,
                attributes = x.Descendants("attribute").Select(y => new
                {
                    name = y.Attribute("name").Value,
                    conditions = y.Descendants("condition").Select(z => new
                    {
                        _type = z.Attribute("type").Value,
                        _operator = z.Attribute("operator").Value,
                        _value = z.Value
                    }).ToList()
                }).ToList()
            }).ToList();
        }
    }
}
