正在使用分析xml

Question

我试图解析来自Amazon产品广告API的XML响应，这是XML

<?xml version="1.0" ?>
    <ItemLookupResponse xmlns="http://webservices.amazon.com/AWSECommerceService/2010-11-01"> <OperationRequest>

              <ASIN>B000XR2UU8</ASIN>
          </Item>
       </Items>
    </ItemLookupResponse>

我感兴趣的是Items中的Item标记，所以基本上所有的xml都是由amazon以字符串形式返回的，我将其解析如下：

^{pr2}$

items是items元素，但到目前为止没有成功，它一直返回None/Empty，im i missing something，还是有其他方法可以实现这一点？在

Answer 1

命名空间问题。在

您可以按照this question或{a2}的第一个答案中的说明，将名称空间放在所有项的前面。一个可能更简单的解决方案是通过如下快速破解忽略名称空间：

xml_hacked_namespace = raw_xml.replace(' xmlsn=', ' xmlnamespace=')
doc = fromstring(xml_hacked_namespace)
item_list = doc.findall('.//Item')

如果您发现您正在使用xml做大量工作，那么您可能还对签出lxml感兴趣。它更快，并提供了一些额外的方法，有些人觉得很好拥有。在

Answer 2

这是一个命名空间问题。这是有效的：

from xml.etree import ElementTree as ET

XML = """<?xml version="1.0" ?>

NS = "{http://webservices.amazon.com/AWSECommerceService/2010-11-01}"

doc = ET.fromstring(XML)
Item_elems = doc.findall(".//" + NS + "Item")  # All Item elements in document

print Item_elems

输出：

^{pr2}$

更接近您自己代码的变体：

NS = "{http://webservices.amazon.com/AWSECommerceService/2010-11-01}"
doc = ET.fromstring(XML)
items = doc[1]                           # Items element

first_item = items.find(NS + 'Item')     # First direct Item child
all_items =  items.findall(NS + 'Item')  # List of all direct Item children
