I am trying to retrieve data from xml.etree.cElementTree.
i have the following code
*Code Snippet*
import xml.etree.cElementTree as ET
xmldata ="""
<pipeline>
<ep_150>
<stage name="lay" longname="layout" department="layout"
process="production">
<review name="R1" reviewer="sridhar reddy" role="supervisor"
id="p1234">
</review>
</stage>
<stage name="lip" longname="lipsync" department="lipsync"
process="production">
<review name="R2" reviewer="someone" role="supervisor" id="p2345">
</review>
</stage>
<stage name="blk" longname="blocking" department="animation"
process="production">
<review name="R3" reviewer="sudeepth" role="supervisor" id="p4645"
dependson='R1'>
</review>
<review name="R4" reviewer="chandu" role="director" id="p5678">
</review>
</stage>
<stage name="pri" longname="primary" department="animation"
process="production">
<review name="R5" reviewer="sudeepth" role="supervisor" id="p4645"
style="dep" >
</review>
<review name="R6" reviewer="sudeepth" role="bld_supervisor"
id="p2556" style="dep">
</review>
</stage>
<stage name="sec" longname="secondary" department="animation"
process="production">
<review name="R7" reviewer="sha" role="supervisor" id="p1234"
style="dep">
</review>
<review name="R8" reviewer="chandu" role="director" id="p5678">
</review>
</stage>
</ep_150>
</pipeline>
"""
root = ET.fromstring(xmldata)
review = root.findall("./ep_150/stage/review")
print '\n\nreviews for id=p4645\n'
for rev in review:
if rev.attrib['id']=='p4645':
print (rev.attrib['name'])
with the above code i am getting the result as below
reviews for id=p4645
R3
R5
*But i need the output as*
reviewes for id=p4645
blk - R3
pri - R5
i.e, i need the parent tag along with the element using Xpaths.
I know its possible if i iterate through entire tree. But need to use more
loops.
