我正在尝试使用elementTree的iterparse函数根据文本过滤节点并将它们写入新文件。我使用iterparse因为输入文件很大(100+ MB)
input.xml中
<xmllist>
<page id="1">
<title>movie title 1</title>
<text>this is a moviein theatres/text>
</page>
<page id="2">
<title>movie title 2</title>
<text>this is a horror film</text>
</page>
<page id="3">
<title></title>
<text>actor in film</text>
</page>
<page id="4">
<title>some other topic</title>
<text>nothing related</text>
</page>
</xmllist>
预期输出(文字中包含“电影”或“电影”的所有页面)
<xmllist>
<page id="1">
<title>movie title 1</title>
<text>this is a movie<n theatres/text>
</page>
<page id="2">
<title>movie title 2</title>
<text>this is a horror film</text>
</page>
<page id="3">
<title></title>
<text>actor in film</text>
</page>
</xmllist>
当前代码
import xml.etree.cElementTree as etree
from xml.etree.cElementTree import dump
output_file=open('/tmp/outfile.xml','w')
for event, elem in iter(etree.iterparse("/tmp/test.xml", events=('start','end'))):
if event == "end" and elem.tag == "page": #need to add condition to search for strings
output_file.write(elem)
elem.clear()
如何根据页面的文本属性添加正则表达式进行过滤?
答案 0 :(得分:2)
你正在寻找一个孩子,而不是一个属性,所以最简单的方法是分析标题,因为它在迭代中“经过”并记住结果,直到你得到结果页面的结尾:
import re
good_page = False
for event, elem in iter(etree.iterparse("/tmp/test.xml", events=('start','end'))):
if event == 'end':
if elem.tag = 'title':
good_page = re.search(r'film|movie', elem.text)
elif elem.tag == 'page':
if good_page:
output_file.write(elem)
good_page = False
elem.clear()
re.search
如果找不到则会返回None
,而if
会将其视为错误,因此我们会避免编写没有标题的网页以及标题为文字与您想要的RE不符。
