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。
一、xml格式如下,就是通过<>节点来区别数据结构的
1 <?xml version="1.0"?> 2 <data> 3 <country name="Liechtenstein"> 4 <rank updated="yes">2</rank> 5 <year>2008</year> 6 <gdppc>141100</gdppc> 7 <neighbor name="Austria" direction="E"/> 8 <neighbor name="Switzerland" direction="W"/> 9 </country> 10 <country name="Singapore"> 11 <rank updated="yes">5</rank> 12 <year>2011</year> 13 <gdppc>59900</gdppc> 14 <neighbor name="Malaysia" direction="N"/> 15 </country> 16 <country name="Panama"> 17 <rank updated="yes">69</rank> 18 <year>2011</year> 19 <gdppc>13600</gdppc> 20 <neighbor name="Costa Rica" direction="W"/> 21 <neighbor name="Colombia" direction="E"/> 22 </country> 23 </data>
二、xml协议在各个语言里都是支持的,在python中可以用以下模块操作xml
-
1、遍历文档和节点
1 import xml.etree.ElementTree as ET 2 tree = ET.parse("xml test.xml")#打开xml文件 3 root = tree.getroot()#f.seek 4 print(root.tag) # =>data,打印tag标签 5 # 遍历xml文档 6 for child in root: 7 print(child.tag,child.attrib) 8 for i in child: 9 print(i.tag,i.text) 10 11 # 只遍历year节点 12 for node in root.iter(‘year‘): 13 print(node.tag,node.text)
-
2、修改和删除xml的内容
1 import xml.etree.ElementTree as ET 2 tree = ET.parse("xml test.xml") 3 root = tree.getroot() 4 #修改 5 for node in root.iter(‘year‘): 6 new_year = int(node.text)+1 7 node.text = str(new_year) 8 node.set("updated","yes") 9 tree.write("xml test.xml") 10 11 #删除 12 for country in root.findall("country"): 13 rank = int(country.find(‘rank‘).text) 14 if rank > 50: 15 root.remove(country) 16 tree.write("output.xml")
-
3、自己创建xml文件
1 #自己创建xml文档 2 import xml.etree.ElementTree as ET 3 new_xml = ET.Element("namelist") 4 name = ET.SubElement(new_xml,"name",attrib={"enrolled":"yes"}) 5 age = ET.SubElement(name,"age",attrib={"checked":"no"}) 6 sex = ET.SubElement(name,"sex") 7 sex.text = ‘33‘ 8 name2 = ET.SubElement(new_xml,"name",attrib={"enrolled":"no"}) 9 age = ET.SubElement(name2,"age") 10 age.text = ‘19‘ 11 et = ET.ElementTree(new_xml) #生成文档对象 12 et.write("test.xml", encoding="utf-8",xml_declaration=True) 13 ET.dump(new_xml) #打印生成的格式
