parsing xml in angular2 to be rendered in the view

Question

Do I need to parse my xml to get the data from the xml to render in the html? I'm currently getting a local .xml file using http.get request and in console log its showing all the information that's in the xml file I think its just reading it.

Question is how to convert xml into json format in angular2?

I tried the console.log(data.title) but this is returning me as unidentified

getXml() {
   this.http.get('../../xmlConf/dashboard_journey.xml')
    .map(response => response.text())
    .subscribe(data => {
        if(data) {
            console.log('fetching your xml');
            console.log(data); // this shows me everything
        }
    });
}

xml

<xml>
<journey>
    <title>Click and Collect</title>
    <shortDesc>
        <short_desc_1>lorem</short_desc_1>
        <short_desc_2>lorem</short_desc_2>
    </shortDesc>
    <longDesc>
        lorem
    </longDesc>
    <imageName>
        <img src="/journey_images/clickandcollect.jpg" alt="Click and Collect"/>
    </imageName>
</journey>

Using the answer below

var parser = new DOMParser();
xmlData = parser.parseFromString(data, "application/xml");

console.log of the above code:

Currently doing for loop to iterate the parsed xml, however in my view its only giving me one object. ngFor only iterates objects that is in an array.

for (var i = 0; i <= newFormat.childNodes.length; i++) {
                this.title = newFormat.getElementsByTagName('title')[i].childNodes[0].nodeValue;
                this.desc = newFormat.getElementsByTagName('desc')[i].childNodes[0].nodeValue;
                console.log(this.title + ' = ' +  this.desc);
            }

view:

<li>{{ title }}</li>

You can use DOMParser

You simply pass your data variable to DOMParser then you can access elements by reference

Example

var parser = new DOMParser();
xmlData = parser.parseFromString(data, "application/xml");
