pyhpecw7.utils.xml.lib.data_element_maker()[source]
pyhpecw7.utils.xml.lib.elem_to_dict(elem, ns, key_map, value_map={})[source]

Convert an XML etree.Element to a desired dictionary as specified by the key map and value map. :param elem: An ancestor element

of the tags specified in the key map.
Parameters:
  • ns (string) – The namespace to use when searching for XML tags.
  • key_map (dict) – A mapping from desired dictionary keys to XML tag names.
  • value_map (dict) – A mapping from XML tag names to dictionaries of mappings from XML text values to desired dictionary values.
Returns:

The desired dictionary.
