6. What is xml?
→ extensible markup language
→ it is portable
XML Parser Architectures and APIs
→ T he two most basic and broadly used
APIs to XML data are the SAX and DOM
interfaces.

7. Simple API for XML (SAX) :
→ T his is useful when your documents are larg e or
you have memorylimitations
→ SAX is read-only
Parsing XML with SAX APIs:
→ SAX is a standard interface for event-driven XML parsing
→requires you tocreate your own
subclassing xml.sax.ContentHandler.
ContentHandler
by
→ T he methods startDocument and endDocument are called
at the start and the end of the XML file
●
●

8. → T he ContentHandler is called at the start and end
of each element.
The parse Method:
xml.sax.parse( xmlfile, contenthandler[,
errorhandler])
→ xmlfile:T his is the name of the XML file to read
from
→ contenthandler: This must be a ContentHandler
object
→ errorhandler: If specified, errorhandler must be a
SAX ErrorHandler object.

9. Parsing XML with DOM APIs
→ The Document Object Model, or "DOM," is a
cross-language API from the World Wide Web
Consortium(W3C) for accessing and modifying XML
documents.
→ The DOM is extremely useful for randomaccess applications
→Easiest way to quickly load an XML document
and to create a minidom object using the xml

10. from lxml import etree
from StringIO import StringIO
def parseXML(xmlFile):
f = open(xmlFile)
xml = f.read()
f.close()
tree= etree.parse(StringIO(xml))
print tree.docinfo.doctype
c=etree.iterparse(StringIO(xml)'''
c = etree.iterparse(xmlFile) # other method
for action,entry in c:
text = entry.text
print entry.tag + " => " + text
if __name__ == "__main__":
parseXML('movie.xml')
