txml is a module to parse XML files to a json-like object
Reading and searching throug an .xml file or string Using 'sample.xml'
>>> from txml import XmlParser
>>> source = 'sample.xml'
>>> parser = XmlParser(source=source)
>>> products = parser.search_nodes(tag='controller')The products object is a generator of all matched instances of the tag controller. The results can only be accessed once. If the results require multiple accesses then the generator should be converted to a list. If no parameters are passed to the method, the entire xml-source will be returned in the
>>> product_list = list(product)
>>> len(product_list)
3Let's look at the first entry. A dictionary of the element is returned containing the elements attributes in a nested dictionary elem and a dictionary containing the a list of all of the elements child nodes in children. Even sub nodes(grandchildren) are returned.
>>> product_list[0]
{'element': {'attr': {
'type': 'usb',
'index': '0'},
'text': '\n ',
'tag': 'controller'}
'children': [{'children': [],
'element': {
'attr': {'name': 'usb0'},
'text': None,
'tag': 'alias'}},
{'children': [],
'element': {
'attr': {'type': 'pci', 'domain': '0x0000',
'bus': '0x00', 'slot': '0x01',
'function': '0x2'},
'text': None,
'tag': 'address'}}] }The txml module can also search for node which match a set of attributes. Any number of attributes can be passed and the function will return any node containing the matching attributes.
>>> product = parser.search_node_attr(tag='controller', type='usb')
>>> len(list(product))
1
>>> product
{'elem': {'type': 'usb', 'index': '0',
'text': '\n ',
'tag': 'controller'}
'children': [{'children': [],
'elem': {
'attr' : {'name': 'usb0'},
'text': None, 'tag': 'alias'}},
{'children': [],
'elem': {'attr' {
'type': 'pci', 'domain': '0x0000',
'bus': '0x00', 'slot': '0x01',
'function': '0x2'},
'text': None,
'tag': 'address'}}] }Clone this repo, and enjoy.
