elementtree

from elementtree import ElementTree as ET tree= ET.parse(r'N:\myinternwork\files xml of bus systems\testonieeebus.xml','r') root= tree.getroot() print(root) now the error is in output as it is giving none <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <bookstore> <book category="cooking"> <author>Giada De Laurentiis</author> </book> </bookstore> The following code is enough. You don't need to open the file at beginning. ET.parse will do it for you if you provide the correct path. In your code you import the library as ET and then reassign the same variable by opening the file. So ET.parse() referes to

I have lots of xml files that I need to merge. I have tried this link at merging xml files using python's ElementTree whose code is (Edited as per my need): import os, os.path, sys import glob from xml.etree import ElementTree def run(files): xml_files = glob.glob(files +"/*.xml") xml_element_tree = None for xml_file in xml_files: print xml_file data = ElementTree.parse(xml_file).getroot() # print ElementTree.tostring(data) for result in data.iter('TALLYMESSAGE'): if xml_element_tree is None: xml_element_tree = data insertion_point = xml_element_tree.findall("./BODY/DATA/TALLYMESSAGE")[0] else

I'm working with an XML file which represent an UML model. Here is an example of what it is: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <XMI xmi.version="1.1" xmlns:UML="omg.org/UML13"> <XMI.content> <UML:Model name="Model" xmi.id="_0"> <UML:Namespace.ownedElement> <UML:Package name="Standard" xmi.id="_5"> </UML:Package> </UML:Namespace.ownedElement> </UML:Model> </XMI.content> </XMI> It is a Rhapsody import format. I want to modify this XML file by using ElementTree in Python 2.5. I have at least one problem but I found 2 consequences, here they are: With this simple code: import xml.etree

I want to print all the values of the "ClCompiler" child of "ItemGroup" of my xml file. my python code tree = minidom.parse(project_path) itemgroup = tree.getElementsByTagName('ItemGroup') print (itemgroup[0].toxml()) my result <ItemGroup Label="ProjectConfigurations"> <ProjectConfiguration Include="Debug|Win32"> <Configuration>Debug</Configuration> <Platform>Win32</Platform> </ProjectConfiguration> <ProjectConfiguration Include="Release|Win32"> <Configuration>Release</Configuration> <Platform>Win32</Platform> </ProjectConfiguration> </ItemGroup> <ItemGroup> <ClCompile Include="../../avmedia

I have strings that have empty xml elements in them, like this: >>> s = """fizz buzz <pb n="44"/> bananas""" These strings have been assigned to xml elements using the etree.SubElement method: >>> from lxml import etree as et >>> root = et.Element('root') >>> txt = et.SubElement(root, 'text') >>> txt.text = s >>> et.dump(root) <root> <text>fizz buzz <pb n="44"/> bananas</text> </root> Fiddling about with re.split() and etree's text and tail I can insert a subelement <pb n="44"/> where I want it in txt.text ; however, sometimes I've got multiple occurrences of the <pb/> element in the string,
