Linux C编程之二十 xml-json

一、XML

1. minixml官网地址 

    http://www.msweet.org/projects.php/Mini-XML

    其他解析xml开源库：tinyxml pugixml

    1）包含头文件: mxml.h

    2）编译的时候需要添加动态库: libmxml.so

• -lmxml
• /usr/local/lib

2. minixml安装:

• ./configure --enable-threads=no && make
• sudo make install

3. 新目录需要一个文件头 - 标准

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

• version不可以省略
• encoding可以省略

4. 使用注意事项

• 必须有一个根元素(节点) -- (只有一个)
• xml标签对大小写敏感
• 标签大多成对使用, 有开始, 有结束

<date></date>
<time></time>

5. 标签中可以添加属性

<node date="17/11/2017">
属性值必须加引号

6. 标签注释

    <!-- 这是注释 -->

7. 开源库minixml的使用

（1）跟标签的对应的节点，父亲节点是：文件头节点

（2）生成xml文件

   1）创建一个新的xml文件

mxml_node_t *mxmlNewXML(const char *version);

• 返回新创建的xml文件节点.
• 默认的文件的编码为utf8

   2）删除节点的内存

void mxmlDelete(mxml_node_t *node);

   3）添加一个新的节点

mxml_node_t *mxmlNewElement(
    mxml_node_t *parent, // 父节点
    const char *name // 新节点标签名
);

   4）设置节点的属性名和属性值 

void mxmlElementSetAttr(
    mxml_node_t *node, // 被设置属性的节点
    const char *name, // 节点的属性名
    const char *value // 属性值
);

   5）创建节点的文本内容

mxml_node_t *mxmlNewText ( 
    mxml_node_t *parent, // 节点地址
    int whitespace, // 是否有空白 0
    const char *string // 文本内容
);

   6）保存节点到xml文件

int mxmlSaveFile(
    mxml_node_t *node, // 根节点
    FILE *fp, // 文件指针
    mxml_save_cb_t cb // 默认MXML_NO_CALLBACK
);

（3）解析xml文件

   1）从文件加载xml到内存

mxml_node_t *mxmlLoadFile(
    mxml_node_t *top, // 一般为NULL
    FILE *fp, // 文件指针
    mxml_type_t (*cb)(mxml_node_t *) // 默认
    MXML_NO_CALLBACK
);

    2）获取节点的属性

const char *mxmlElementGetAttr(
    mxml_node_t *node, // 带属性的节点的地址
    const char *name // 属性名
);

   3）获取指定节点的文本内容

const char *mxmlGetText(
    mxml_node_t *node, // 节点的地址
    int *whitespace // 是否有空格
);

   4）跳转到下一个节点

mxml_node_t *mxmlWalkNext(
mxml_node_t *node, // 当前节点
mxml_node_t *top, // 根节点
int descend
);

descend：搜索的规则
         MXML_NO_DESCEND：查看同层级
         MXML_DESCEND_FIRST：查看下一层级的第一个
         MXML_DESCEND：一直向下搜索

   5）查找节点

mxml_node_t *mxmlFindElement(
     mxml_node_t *node, // 当前节点
     mxml_node_t *top, // 根节点
     const char *name, // 查找的标签名
     const char *attr, // 查找的标签的属性，没有属性传NULL
     const char *value, // 查找的标签的属性值，没有属性传NULL
     int descend // 同上 
);

8. 示例

（1）生成下面的xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<bookstore>
    <book category="儿童">
        <title>哈利波特</title>
        <autoro>JK.Rowling</autoro>
        <year>2005</year>
        <price>29.99</price>
    </book>
</bookstore>

#include <stdio.h>
#include "mxml.h"

int main(int argc, const char* argv[])
{
    // 添加文件头
    mxml_node_t* rootNode = mxmlNewXML("1.0");

    // 添加一个新节点
    mxml_node_t *bookStore = mxmlNewElement(rootNode, "bookstore");
    // 添加子节点 - book
    mxml_node_t* book = mxmlNewElement(bookStore, "book");
    // 添加book 的属性
    mxmlElementSetAttr(book, "category", "儿童");
    // 添加标题
    mxml_node_t* title = mxmlNewElement(book, "title");
    mxmlNewText(title, 0, "哈利波特");
    // 添加作者
    mxml_node_t* author = mxmlNewElement(book, "autoro");
    mxmlNewText(author, 0, "JK.Rowling");
    // 添加时间
    mxml_node_t* year = mxmlNewElement(book, "year");
    mxmlNewText(year, 0, "2005");
    // 添加价格
    mxml_node_t* price = mxmlNewElement(book, "price");
    mxmlNewText(price, 0, "29.99");

    // 保存数据到文件
    FILE* fp = fopen("book.xml", "w");
    mxmlSaveFile(rootNode, fp, MXML_NO_CALLBACK);
    fclose(fp);

    return 0;
}

#include <stdio.h>
#include "mxml.h"

int main(int argc, const char* argv[])
{
    // 加载xml文件
    FILE* fp = fopen("book.xml", "r");
    mxml_node_t* root = mxmlLoadFile(NULL, fp, MXML_NO_CALLBACK);

    // 查找book节点
    mxml_node_t* book = mxmlFindElement(root, root, "book", "category", NULL, MXML_DESCEND);
    printf("book attr: %s\n", mxmlElementGetAttr(book, "category"));

    mxml_node_t* node = mxmlWalkNext(book, root, MXML_DESCEND_FIRST);
    printf("    title: %s\n", mxmlGetText(node, 0)); 

    node = mxmlWalkNext(node, root, MXML_NO_DESCEND);
    printf("    author: %s\n", mxmlGetText(node, 0)); 

    node = mxmlWalkNext(node, root, MXML_NO_DESCEND);
    printf("    year: %s\n", mxmlGetText(node, 0)); 

    node = mxmlWalkNext(node, root, MXML_NO_DESCEND);
    printf("    price: %s\n", mxmlGetText(node, 0)); 

    fclose(fp);

    mxmlDelete(root);

    return 0;
}

（2）生成下面的xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<China>
    <City>
        <Name isbig="true">北京</Name>
        <Area>1.641万平方千米</Area>
        <Population>2200万</Population>
    </City>
    <City>
        <Name isbig="false">石家庄</Name>
        <Area>15848平方千米</Area>
        <Population>107万</Population>
    </City>
</China>

#include <stdio.h>
#include <mxml.h>

int main(int argc, const char* argv[])
{
    // 创建xml文件头节点
    mxml_node_t *xml = mxmlNewXML("1.0");

    // 创建xml根节点 - china
    mxml_node_t* china = mxmlNewElement(xml, "China");


    // 创建城市节点
    mxml_node_t* city = mxmlNewElement(china, "City");
    // 添加子节点
    // name
    mxml_node_t* name = mxmlNewElement(city, "Name");
    // 设置标签值
    mxmlNewText(name, 0, "北京");
    mxmlElementSetAttr(name, "isbig", "true");
    // 面积
    mxml_node_t* area = mxmlNewElement(city, "Area");
    mxmlNewText(area, 0, "1.641万平方千米");
    // 人口
    mxml_node_t* popu = mxmlNewElement(city, "Population");
    mxmlNewText(popu, 0, "2200万");

    // 第二个城市节点
    city = mxmlNewElement(china, "City");
    // name
    name = mxmlNewElement(city, "Name");
    mxmlNewText(name, 0, "石家庄");
    mxmlElementSetAttr(name, "isbig", "false");
    area = mxmlNewElement(city, "Area");
    mxmlNewText(area, 0, "15848平方千米");
    popu = mxmlNewElement(city, "Population");
    mxmlNewText(popu, 0, "107万");

    // 将xml内容保存到磁盘
    FILE* fp = fopen("china.xml", "w");
    mxmlSaveFile(xml, fp, MXML_NO_CALLBACK);
    fclose(fp);
    mxmlDelete(xml);
    
    return 0;
}

#include <stdio.h>
#include <mxml.h>

int main(int argc, const char* argv[])
{
    // 从磁盘加载xml文件
    FILE* fp = fopen("china.xml", "r");
    if(fp == NULL)
    {
        printf("fopen error\n");
        return 0;
    }
    // root 节点指向xml文件头
    mxml_node_t* root = mxmlLoadFile(NULL, fp, MXML_NO_CALLBACK);

    // 遍历 - 取出各个节点的值
    // 找到第一个城市节点
    mxml_node_t* city = mxmlFindElement(root, root, "City", NULL, NULL, MXML_DESCEND);
    if(city == NULL)
    {
        printf("xml node not found\n");
        return 0;
    }
    while( city  )
    {
        printf("==================\n");
        // 向下走一个节点
        mxml_node_t* node = mxmlWalkNext(city, root, MXML_DESCEND_FIRST);
        printf("city:   \n");
        printf("    name = %s\n", mxmlGetText(node, NULL));
        // 
        node = mxmlWalkNext(node, root, MXML_NO_DESCEND);
        printf("    area = %s\n", mxmlGetText(node, NULL));
        //
        node = mxmlWalkNext(node, root, MXML_NO_DESCEND);
        printf("    population = %s\n", mxmlGetText(node, NULL));
        // 搜索下一个城市节点
        city = mxmlFindElement(city, root, "City", NULL, NULL, MXML_DESCEND);
    }

    fclose(fp);
    mxmlDelete(root);

    return 0;
}

（3）xml 解析注意问题 

    注意：使用 minixml 开源库生成的 xml 会在一行，如果手动将调整 xml，则解析会有问题。下面的示例相同的xml，只是将在一行的xml进行调整，注意运行查看解析结果。

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<car>
    <factory>
        <name>一汽大众</name>
        <brand>
            <name>高尔夫</name>
            <color>红色</color>
            <price>15万</price>
        </brand>
        <brand>
            <name>速腾</name>
            <color>银白</color>
            <price>18万</price>
        </brand>
        <brand>
            <name>迈腾</name>
            <color>黑灰</color>
            <price>28万</price>
        </brand>
    </factory>
    <factory>
        <brand>
            <name>帕萨特</name>
            <color>黑色</color>
            <price>25万</price>
        </brand>
        <brand>
            <name>POLO</name>
            <color>灰色</color>
            <price>8万</price>
        </brand>
    </factory>
</car>

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><car><factory name="一汽大众"><brand><name>高尔夫</name><color>红色</color><price>15万</price></brand><brand><name>速腾</name><color>银白</color><price>18万</price></brand><brand><name>迈腾</name><color>黑灰</color><price>28万</price></brand></factory><factory name="上海大众"><brand><name>帕萨特</name><color>黑色</color><price>25万</price></brand><brand><name>POLO</name><color>灰色</color><price>8万</price></brand></factory></car>

#include <stdio.h>
#include "mxml.h"

int main(int argc, const char* argv[])
{
    if(argc < 2)
    {
        printf("./a.out filename\n");
        return 0;
    }
    // 加载xml文件
    FILE* fp = fopen(argv[1], "r");
    mxml_node_t* root = mxmlLoadFile(NULL, fp, MXML_NO_CALLBACK);

    // 找到第一个factory节点
    mxml_node_t* factory = mxmlFindElement(root, root, "factory", "name", NULL, MXML_DESCEND);
    // 循环查找
    while( factory  )
    {
        // 打印几点的属性值
        printf("factory attr: %s\n", mxmlElementGetAttr(factory, "name"));

        // 向下移动一个节点
        mxml_node_t* brand = mxmlWalkNext(factory, root, MXML_DESCEND);
        while( brand )
        {
            // name
            mxml_node_t* node = mxmlWalkNext(brand, root, MXML_DESCEND_FIRST);
            printf("    name: %s\n", mxmlGetText(node, 0));
            // color
            node = mxmlWalkNext(node, root, MXML_NO_DESCEND);
            printf("    color: %s\n", mxmlGetText(node, 0));
            // price
            node = mxmlWalkNext(node, root, MXML_NO_DESCEND);
            printf("    price: %s\n", mxmlGetText(node, 0));
            printf("    =========================================\n");

            // 找到下一个品牌节点
            brand = mxmlFindElement(brand, root, "brand", NULL, NULL, MXML_NO_DESCEND);
        }
        // 打印该厂家对应的车辆品牌和属性信息
        // 查找下一个节点
        factory = mxmlFindElement(factory, root, "factory", "name", NULL, MXML_NO_DESCEND);
    }
    mxmlDelete(root);
    fclose(fp);

    return 0;
}

上面代码编译：gcc c文件 -lmxml -lpthread

二、JSON

1. cjson的使用

    压缩包解压缩，直接使用里边的cJSON.c和cJSON.h即可

    链接时还需要加上-lm 表示链接math库

2. json数组

• char array[23] = "slkjflajslfd"; 
• 中括号[整形, 字符串, 布尔类型, json数组, json对象]，比如[123, 123.2, true, false, [12, 34, 56, "hello, world"]]

3. json对象

    {}中是一些键值对

{
    "name":"zhang3", 
    "name2":"li4"
}
key值: 必须是 字符串, 不重复
value值: json对象, json数组, 布尔, 整形, 字符串

4. json数组+json对象

{
    "name":"zhang3", 
    "name2":"li4",
    "张三":{
        "别名":"老王",
        "性别":"男",
        "年龄":34,
        "孩子":["小红", "小绿", "小黑"]
        }
}

5. C语言json开源解析库 - cjson

（1）生成json文件

   1）创建一个json对象

cJSON *cJSON_CreateObject(void);

   2） 往json对象中添加数据成员

void cJSON_AddItemToObject(
    cJSON *object, // json对象
    const char *string, // key值
    cJSON *item // value值（int，string，array，obj）
);

   3）创建一个整型值

cJSON *cJSON_CreateNumber(double num);

   4）创建一个字符串

cJSON *cJSON_CreateString(const char *string);

   5）创建一个json数组

cJSON *cJSON_CreateArray(void); -- 空数组

   6）创建默认有count个整形值的json数组

cJSON *cJSON_CreateIntArray(const int *numbers,int count);

• int arry[] = {8,3,4,5,6};
• cJSON_CreateIntArray(arry, 5);

   7）往json数组中添加数据成员

void cJSON_AddItemToArray(cJSON *array, cJSON *item);

   8）释放jSON结构指针

void cJSON_Delete(cJSON *c)

   9）将JSON结构转化为字符串

char *cJSON_Print(cJSON *item);

• 返回值需要使用free释放
• FILE* fp = fopen();
• fwrite();
• fclose();

（2）解析json文件

   1）将字符串解析为JSON结构

cJSON *cJSON_Parse(const char *value);

   注意：返回值需要使用cJSON_Delete释放

   2）根据键值查找json节点

cJSON *cJSON_GetObjectItem(
    cJSON *object, // 当前json对象
    const char *string // key值
);

   3）获取json数组中元素的个数

int cJSON_GetArraySize(cJSON *array);

   4） 根据数组下标找到对应的数组元素

cJSON *cJSON_GetArrayItem(cJSON *array, int index);

   5）判断是否有可以值对应的键值对

int cJSON_HasObjectItem(cJSON *object, const char *string);

（3）示例

    生成下面的JSON

{
    "奔驰":    {
        "factory":    "一汽大众",
        "last":    31,
        "price":    83,
        "sell":    49,
        "sum":    80,
        "other":    [124, "hello, world", false]
    }
}

#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include "cJSON.h"

int main(int argc, const char* argv[])
{
    // 创建json对象
    cJSON* obj = cJSON_CreateObject(); 

    // 创建子对象 - 品牌
    cJSON* brand = cJSON_CreateObject();
    // 添加键值对
    cJSON_AddItemToObject(brand, "factory", cJSON_CreateString("一汽大众"));
    cJSON_AddItemToObject(brand, "last", cJSON_CreateNumber(31));
    cJSON_AddItemToObject(brand, "price", cJSON_CreateNumber(83));
    cJSON_AddItemToObject(brand, "sell", cJSON_CreateNumber(49));
    cJSON_AddItemToObject(brand, "sum", cJSON_CreateNumber(80));

    // 创建json数组
    cJSON* array = cJSON_CreateArray();
    cJSON_AddItemToArray(array, cJSON_CreateNumber(124));
    cJSON_AddItemToArray(array, cJSON_CreateString("hello, world"));
    cJSON_AddItemToArray(array, cJSON_CreateBool(0));
    cJSON_AddItemToObject(brand, "other", array);

    cJSON_AddItemToObject(obj, "奔驰", brand);

    // 格式化json对象
    char* text = cJSON_Print(obj);
    FILE* fp = fopen("car.json", "w");
    fwrite(text, 1, strlen(text), fp);
    fclose(fp);

    return 0;
}
