What the font bro? 😅 Can't read, I think I am too old

Awesome

Thank you, Francesco, for taking the time to review this library's different functions. You have greatly helped me finish a much-needed script for our localization engineering tasks. Notably, adding text to an existing tag saved the day.

Thanks for saving my day Francesco :)

nice vid thanks

After editing the xml file, I don't want the ns tag in each line. What should I do?

Can you show us how to parse a Tableau dashboard file (*.twb)? It's an XML file, Tableau just renamed it. I am trying to create a data dictionary from the .twb file.

Thank you Francesco for explaining this concept so easily with a demo.

Thanks a lot for the great tutorial. Your approach to XML parsing was spot-on for me and it was exactly what I was looking for to get started on XML parsing.

Excellent man! This is what I was looking for :)

Nice job Francesco, thank you. I do have a question regarding your last example. How do you get x.tag without the namespace in it ?

That's how it is supposed to be taught. I have been browsing the courses on how to do it and they all are complicated. Thankfully found this video. Thanks a lot. Great job!

thank you

Tried to find a solutuion on stackoverflow and other pages, and this video was the solution, good examples, good explanation with actual codes run. Thank you!

Francesco, thank you. Thanks to you I now somewhat understand what is happening in the XML file I have, I did not know that is contained name spaces. Within the first 6 minutes, I am writing this before I have read the comments or watched the whole video. You have saved me hours of coding as I was going to write my own parser. All the other video sorta, kinds, neglected this small detail! Now after reading the comments, I see you have helped a LOT of people, thank you again.

Thanks a lot. It saved lot of my time

Have you stopped created videos?

Thank yopu so much, I was beginning to think I was cursed to manually write a text parser for these xml files forever.

Really excellent explanation. Thank you so much.

Really cristal clear tutorial, I understand a lot of things I dindn't understand on XML namespaces, Thanks a lot Guy!

Is there a way to change sub-element instead of the whole element string? let's say for example that I want to change W with SW but not the name, and I need to do it in a loop so I can't put the name string inside as it changes anytime, is there a way to call the specific sub element?

can you mass edit multiple files?

this code is specific to specific xml, the code should be generic for any XML, if tags are missing it should add the missing tags

Hi, How to write the content of etree.dump to an xml file?

Thanks a lot for this video. I couldn't grasp the concepts properly even after reading from books. This video made it look like piece of cake.

Great video. Thanks

Thanks for this video, I needed to parse xml from a variable instead of a file and found this : xml_data_tree = ET.fromstring(received_packet)

Hi Francesco, i'm getting error while parsing xml file since it is having special words. kindly hep me to avoid this error. Error : xml.etree.ElementTree.ParseError: not well-formed (invalid token): line 277, column 366

Hi. I have this xmlns and i tried every solution and i can't read the XML with this namespace: <VisioDocument xmlns='urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:visio'> ..... </VisioDocument> Some idea to solve this? :/ it is a xml, but the extension file is .vdx

Thank you! Spended almost two days trying to resolve namespace issue, and than found this video, thank you.

thank you for this

Hi Francesco, In my xml closing tag is missing for example, Current xml - <data> <country name="Liechtenstein"> <rank>1</rank> <year>2008</year> <gdppc>141100</gdppc> <neighbor name="Austria" direction="E"/> <neighbor name="Switzerland" direction="W"/> </country> Expected xml - <data> <country name="Liechtenstein"> <rank>1</rank> <year>2008</year> <gdppc>141100</gdppc> <neighbor name="Austria" direction="E"/> <neighbor name="Switzerland" direction="W"/> </country> </data> Can you please help me with this?

thanks a lot

I know it's a bit late, but you can correct the XML layout after adding a new subelement by using the Indent method of ElementTree. This refreshes the automatic indent for the whole tree (or element). You may need to specify "space = ' '" (4 spaces) to override the default setting, to match the default layout for the dump method. ET.indent (tree, space = ' ') # for entire tree ET.indent (elm, space = ' ', level = 1) # for just the element although I did have problems with inconsistent spacing trying to just indent the element!! :O

Thanks, it's very clear, most of the tutorials cover only the non namespaces xml

Super helpful, thanks a lot!

Brilliant !!!

Hey man! You just helped me to finish my parser! I do not know how, but I finally was able to find and change a text in each specific element in my XML file. I still do not understand, why I have to register the namespace, but it did the work perfectly. Your vide was really helpful. I didn't understood 70% of it for the 1st time, but now it's more clear to me. Thanks man!

Merge XML files using python,can you please make video on this top

That was SO helpful Dude. Thank you so much.

Hi Francesco Cento. I would like to know how to implement below two use cases 1) Incorrect type of data inside an element, for e.g string inside an element that is supposed to have an integer. 2) Missing element: An element that must be present according to XSD is not present in the XML. Could you please suggest any idea on this ? thanks

This was a huge help. Thank you!

Superb, exactly what I needed to know. Thank you

Increase your font size before doing tutorials. its quite complicated to read texts. anyway goodjob

Hi Francesco, Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us. I have a doubt if we want to get a element based on the value of other element , how can we do. I want if attachment is local, print symid.
