xml是实现不同语言或程序之间进行数据交换的协议,跟json差不多,但json使用起来更简单,不过,古时候,在json还没诞生的黑暗年代,大家只能选择用xml呀,至今很多传统公司如金融行业的很多系统的接口还主要是xml。
xml的格式如下,就是通过<>节点来区别数据结构的:
<?xml version="1.0"?> <data> <country name="Liechtenstein"> <rank updated="yes">2</rank> <year>2008</year> <gdppc>141100</gdppc> <neighbor name="Austria" direction="E"/> <neighbor name="Switzerland" direction="W"/> </country> <country name="Singapore"> <rank updated="yes">5</rank> <year>2011</year> <gdppc>59900</gdppc> <neighbor name="Malaysia" direction="N"/> </country> <country name="Panama"> <rank updated="yes">69</rank> <year>2011</year> <gdppc>13600</gdppc> <neighbor name="Costa Rica" direction="W"/> <neighbor name="Colombia" direction="E"/> </country> </data>
xml协议在各个语言里的都 是支持的,在python中可以用以下模块操作xml
import xml.etree.ElementTree as ET tree = ET.parse("xml_test.xml") #open root = tree.getroot() #f.seek(0) print(root.tag) #遍历xml文档 for child in root: #data 下一层的关键词country print(child.tag, child.attrib) print('----i start----') for i in child: print(i.tag,i.text) print('----i stop----') #只遍历year 节点 print('----year----') for node in root.iter('year'): print(node.tag,node.text)
运行结果
data country {'name': 'Liechtenstein'} ----i start---- rank 2 year 2008 gdppc 141100 neighbor None neighbor None ----i stop---- country {'name': 'Singapore'} ----i start---- rank 5 year 2011 gdppc 59900 neighbor None ----i stop---- country {'name': 'Panama'} ----i start---- rank 69 year 2011 gdppc 13600 neighbor None neighbor None ----i stop---- ----year---- year 2008 year 2011 year 2011
修改和删除xml文档
import xml.etree.ElementTree as ET tree = ET.parse("xml_test.xml") #open root = tree.getroot() #f.seek(0) #修改 for node in root.iter('year'): #只从下一层里面找 new_year = int(node.text) + 1 node.text = str(new_year) node.set("attr_test","yes") #设置属性 tree.write("xmltest.xml") #删除node for country in root.findall('country'): #findall 找到所有的 country rank = int(country.find('rank').text) if rank > 50: root.remove(country) tree.write('output.xml')
自己创建xml文件
import xml.etree.ElementTree as ET root = ET.Element("namelist") #root name = ET.SubElement(root,"name",attrib={"enrolled":"yes"}) age = ET.SubElement(name,"age",attrib={"checked":"no"}) sex = ET.SubElement(name,"sex") sex.text = '33' name2 = ET.SubElement(root,"name",attrib={"enrolled":"no"}) age = ET.SubElement(name2,"age") age.text = '19' et = ET.ElementTree(root) #生成文档对象 et.write("build_out.xml", encoding="utf-8", xml_declaration=True) ET.dump(root) #打印生成的格式
