A framework for XML transformations without boilerplate.
Project description
inxs – A Python framework for XML transformations without boilerplate.
inxs is inexcessive.
inxs is not XSLT.
inxs is ISC-licensed.
inxs is fully documented here: https://inxs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/
At a glimpse
Solving the Wikipedia XSLT example #1:
def extract_person(element):
return element.attrib['username'], element.find('name').text
def append_person(previous_result, result):
lxml_utils.subelement(result, 'name', {'username': previous_result[0]},
text=previous_result[1])
transformation = Transformation(
Rule('person', (extract_person, append_person)),
result_object='context.result', context={'result': etree.Element('root')})
# that's five (or not counting line-breaks: nine) lines less sloc
# than the XSLT implementationSolving the Wikipedia XSLT example #2:
def generate_skeleton(context, e):
context.persons_list = e.ul()
context.html = e.html(
e.head(e.title('Testing XML Example')),
e.body(e.h1('Persons'), context.persons_list))
def extract_person(element, persons):
persons.append((element.find('name').text, element.find('family-name').text))
def list_persons(previous_result, persons_list, e):
persons_list.extend(e.li(f'{x[1]}, {x[0]}') for x in previous_result)
transformation = Transformation(
lib.init_elementmaker(namespace='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'),
generate_skeleton,
Rule('person', extract_person),
lib.sorter('persons', itemgetter(1)),
list_persons,
result_object='context.html', context={'persons': []})
# that's eight (or not counting line-breaks: thirteen) lines less sloc
# than the XSLT implementationHere you can find the source repository and issue tracker of inxs.
