获取根节点属性

标签: xml xpath

我有一个XML文档,其基本结构如下:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<records timestamp="1264777862">
<record></record>
<record></record>
<record></record>
<record></record>
</records>

到目前为止,我一直在使用以下内容:

$doc = new DOMDocument();
$doc->load('myfile.xml');
$xpath = new DOMXPath($doc);
$timestamp = $xpath->query("/records@timestamp");

但是这给了我一个无效的表达错误。

用于获取根的timestamp属性的正确PHP / XPath表达式语法是什么?

答案 0 :(得分:2)

您现有的PHP代码是什么?你在使用DOMDocument吗? SimpleXML的?

正确的Xpath表达式是'string(/ records / @ timestamp)'

对于SimpleXML,请参阅http://php.net/manual/en/simplexmlelement.xpath.php e.g。

<?php
$string = <<<XML
<records timestamp="1264777862">
<record></record>
<record></record>
<record></record>
<record></record>
</records>

XML;

$xml = new SimpleXMLElement($string);

$result = $xml->xpath('string(/records/@timestamp)');

while(list( , $node) = each($result)) {
    echo $node,"\n";
}

?>

对于DOMXPath,请参阅http://www.php.net/manual/en/domxpath.evaluate.php

<?php

$doc = new DOMDocument;

$doc->load('book.xml');

$xpath = new DOMXPath($doc);

// our query is relative to the records node
$query = 'string(/records/@timestamp)';

$timestamp = $xpath->evaluate($query);
echo $timestamp ."\n";

?>

修改
见上面的编辑。需要在xpath表达式中转换为字符串
