使用TBXML获取未知数量的元素

我的问题是:如何使用可预测的元素名称提取未知数量的XML元素并获取其属性值?

我使用TBXML(目前为止喜欢它)来解析来自国家气象服务的天气观测数据。

以下是XML的示例(<METAR>元素是相关部分)

<METAR>
    <raw_text>
        KDEN 181953Z 01006KT 10SM FEW080 SCT110 SCT150 31/06 A3007 RMK AO2 SLP093 OCNL LTGCG DSNT SW VIRGA S-SW CB DSNT SW MOV E T03110061
    </raw_text>
    <station_id>KDEN</station_id>
    <observation_time>2014-08-18T19:53:00Z</observation_time>
    <latitude>39.85</latitude>
    <longitude>-104.65</longitude>
    <temp_c>31.1</temp_c>
    <dewpoint_c>6.1</dewpoint_c>
    <wind_dir_degrees>10</wind_dir_degrees>
    <wind_speed_kt>6</wind_speed_kt>
    <visibility_statute_mi>10.0</visibility_statute_mi>
    <altim_in_hg>30.070866</altim_in_hg>
    <sea_level_pressure_mb>1009.3</sea_level_pressure_mb>
    <quality_control_flags>
        <auto_station>TRUE</auto_station>
    </quality_control_flags>
    <sky_condition sky_cover="FEW" cloud_base_ft_agl="8000"/>
    <sky_condition sky_cover="SCT" cloud_base_ft_agl="11000"/>
    <sky_condition sky_cover="SCT" cloud_base_ft_agl="15000"/>
    <flight_category>VFR</flight_category>
    <metar_type>METAR</metar_type>
    <elevation_m>1640.0</elevation_m>
</METAR>

重要的部分是那些<sky_condition>元素及其属性。

随着天气变化,<sky_condition>元素的数量会发生变化。可能只有一个,也有多个。

我最终会按迭代顺序显示它们;这是第一个<sky_condition>元素是最重要的元素,其次是下一个元素。

我使用traverseElement方法迭代XML。我需要获取有多少<sky_condition>个元素的属性并存储它们以供显示。

这是traverseElement方法实现。我传递的参数metarElement代表上面粘贴的XML。

- (void) traverseElement:(TBXMLElement *)element {

    do {
        // Display the name of the element
        NSLog(@"%@",[TBXML elementName:element]);

        // Obtain first attribute from element
        TBXMLAttribute * attribute = element->firstAttribute;

        while (attribute) {
            // Display name and value of attribute to the log window
            NSLog(@"%@->%@ = %@",  [TBXML elementName:element],
                  [TBXML attributeName:attribute],
                  [TBXML attributeValue:attribute]);

            // Obtain the next attribute
            attribute = attribute->next;
        }

        // if the element has child elements, process them
        if (element->firstChild)
            [self traverseElement:element->firstChild];

        // Obtain next sibling element
    } while ((element = element->nextSibling));
}

我知道我需要从<sky_condition>元素中提取属性值并将它们存储在一个数组中(数组?),但是我无法理解我需要编写的条件来完成这个。

非常感谢任何帮助或提示。

我通过创建一些将存储我需要的属性的NSMutableArrays来实现这一目标。在我的@interface

@property (nonatomic) BOOL isSkyClear;
@property (strong, nonatomic) NSMutableArray *fewArray;
@property (strong, nonatomic) NSMutableArray *sctArray;
@property (strong, nonatomic) NSMutableArray *bknArray;
@property (strong, nonatomic) NSMutableArray *ovcArray; 

方法实施- (void) traverseElement:(TBXMLElement *)element {

 do {
        // Display the name of the element
        NSLog(@"%@",[TBXML elementName:element]);

        // Obtain first attribute from element
        TBXMLAttribute * attribute = element->firstAttribute;

        while (attribute) {
            // Display name and value of attribute to the log window

            NSLog(@"%@->%@ = %@",  [TBXML elementName:element],
                [TBXML attributeName:attribute],
                [TBXML attributeValue:attribute]);

            if ([[TBXML attributeValue:attribute] isEqualToString:@"CLR"]) {
                self.isSkyClear = YES;

            } else if ([[TBXML attributeValue:attribute] isEqualToString:@"FEW"]) {
                attribute = attribute->next;
                NSString *cloudBase = [TBXML attributeValue:attribute];
                [self.fewArray addObject:cloudBase];
                break;

            } else if ([[TBXML attributeValue:attribute] isEqualToString:@"SCT"]) {
                attribute = attribute->next;
                NSString *cloudBase = [TBXML attributeValue:attribute];
                [self.sctArray addObject:cloudBase];
                break;

            } else if ([[TBXML attributeValue:attribute] isEqualToString:@"BKN"]) {
                attribute = attribute->next;
                NSString *cloudBase = [TBXML attributeValue:attribute];
                [self.bknArray addObject:cloudBase];
                break;

            } else if ([[TBXML attributeValue:attribute] isEqualToString:@"OVC"]) {
                attribute = attribute->next;
                NSString *cloudBase = [TBXML attributeValue:attribute];
                [self.ovcArray addObject:cloudBase];
                break;                    
            } 

            attribute = attribute->next;   
        }

        // Obtain next sibling element
    } while ((element = element->nextSibling));
}
