The ``E`` Element factory for generating XML documents.

"""Element generator factory.
|
|
|
|
Unlike the ordinary Element factory, the E factory allows you to pass in
|
|
more than just a tag and some optional attributes; you can also pass in
|
|
text and other elements. The text is added as either text or tail
|
|
attributes, and elements are inserted at the right spot. Some small
|
|
examples::
|
|
|
|
>>> from lxml import etree as ET
|
|
>>> from lxml.builder import E
|
|
|
|
>>> ET.tostring(E("tag"))
|
|
'<tag/>'
|
|
>>> ET.tostring(E("tag", "text"))
|
|
'<tag>text</tag>'
|
|
>>> ET.tostring(E("tag", "text", key="value"))
|
|
'<tag key="value">text</tag>'
|
|
>>> ET.tostring(E("tag", E("subtag", "text"), "tail"))
|
|
'<tag><subtag>text</subtag>tail</tag>'
|
|
|
|
For simple tags, the factory also allows you to write ``E.tag(...)`` instead
|
|
of ``E('tag', ...)``::
|
|
|
|
>>> ET.tostring(E.tag())
|
|
'<tag/>'
|
|
>>> ET.tostring(E.tag("text"))
|
|
'<tag>text</tag>'
|
|
>>> ET.tostring(E.tag(E.subtag("text"), "tail"))
|
|
'<tag><subtag>text</subtag>tail</tag>'
|
|
|
|
Here's a somewhat larger example; this shows how to generate HTML
|
|
documents, using a mix of prepared factory functions for inline elements,
|
|
nested ``E.tag`` calls, and embedded XHTML fragments::
|
|
|
|
# some common inline elements
|
|
A = E.a
|
|
I = E.i
|
|
B = E.b
|
|
|
|
def CLASS(v):
|
|
# helper function, 'class' is a reserved word
|
|
return {'class': v}
|
|
|
|
page = (
|
|
E.html(
|
|
E.head(
|
|
E.title("This is a sample document")
|
|
),
|
|
E.body(
|
|
E.h1("Hello!", CLASS("title")),
|
|
E.p("This is a paragraph with ", B("bold"), " text in it!"),
|
|
E.p("This is another paragraph, with a ",
|
|
A("link", href="http://www.python.org"), "."),
|
|
E.p("Here are some reserved characters: <spam&egg>."),
|
|
ET.XML("<p>And finally, here is an embedded XHTML fragment.</p>"),
|
|
)
|
|
)
|
|
)
|
|
|
|
print ET.tostring(page)
|
|
|
|
Here's a prettyprinted version of the output from the above script::
|
|
|
|
<html>
|
|
<head>
|
|
<title>This is a sample document</title>
|
|
</head>
|
|
<body>
|
|
<h1 class="title">Hello!</h1>
|
|
<p>This is a paragraph with <b>bold</b> text in it!</p>
|
|
<p>This is another paragraph, with <a href="http://www.python.org">link</a>.</p>
|
|
<p>Here are some reserved characters: <spam&egg>.</p>
|
|
<p>And finally, here is an embedded XHTML fragment.</p>
|
|
</body>
|
|
</html>
|
|
|
|
For namespace support, you can pass a namespace map (``nsmap``)
|
|
and/or a specific target ``namespace`` to the ElementMaker class::
|
|
|
|
>>> E = ElementMaker(namespace="http://my.ns/")
|
|
>>> print(ET.tostring( E.test ))
|
|
<test xmlns="http://my.ns/"/>
|
|
|
|
>>> E = ElementMaker(namespace="http://my.ns/", nsmap={'p':'http://my.ns/'})
|
|
>>> print(ET.tostring( E.test ))
|
|
<p:test xmlns:p="http://my.ns/"/>
