【问题描述】：

我正在考虑用 Python 代码创建一个动态 xml ETREE 子元素。

我有一个分层标题来描述书的和平，如下所示：

<Books>
<Booktype List= "Story > Fiction > Young">
#here the rest of book text
</Booktype>
<Booktype List= "Science > Math > Young">
#here the rest of book text
</Booktype>
</Books>

如何获得这样的分层 xml 标签：

<Books>
<Booktype>
  <Story>
    <Fiction>
         <Young>
#here the rest of book text
         </Young>
    </Fiction>
  </Story>
</Booktype>
</Books>

这是我的代码：

import re
import xml.etree.ElementTree as ET
from xml.etree import ElementTree


List= "Story>Fiction>Young"
List = List.split('>')
root = ET.Element('Books')
Booktype =ET.SubElement(root,'Booktype')

for l in List:
  ND = ET.SubElement(Booktype,str(l))
  Booktype.append(ND)

tree = ET.ElementTree(root)
ElementTree.tostring(root,'utf-8')

我得到了这个糟糕的结果：

'<Books><Booktype><Story /><Story /><Story /><Fiction /><Fiction /><Young /><Young /><Story /><Story /><Fiction /><Fiction /><Young /><Young /></Booktype></Books>'

【解决方案1】：

如果你想嵌套列表元素，你必须保留对前一个元素的引用，这样你就可以将子元素添加到它，而不是 Booktype 元素。请参阅示例中的变量currrent。

from xml.etree import ElementTree as ET

xml_string = '''<Books>
<Booktype List= "Story > Fiction > Young">
#here the rest of book text
</Booktype>
<Booktype List= "Science > Math > Young">
#here the rest of book text 2
</Booktype>
</Books>
'''

xml = ET.fromstring(xml_string)
for booktype in xml.findall('Booktype'):
    types = map(lambda x: x.strip(), booktype.get('List').split('>'))
    current = booktype
    for t in types:
        current = ET.SubElement(current, t)
    current.text = booktype.text
    booktype.text = ''
    del booktype.attrib['List']
print ET.tostring(xml,'utf-8')

给我结果：

<Books>
<Booktype><Story><Fiction><Young>
#here the rest of book text
</Young></Fiction></Story></Booktype>
<Booktype><Science><Math><Young>
#here the rest of book text 2
</Young></Math></Science></Booktype>
</Books>

如果你想创建一个全新的结构，你可以这样做：

xml = ET.fromstring(xml_string)
root = ET.Element('Books')
for booktype in xml.findall('Booktype'):
    current = ET.SubElement(root, 'Booktype')
    for t in map(lambda x: x.strip(), booktype.get('List').split('>')):
        current = ET.SubElement(current, t)
    current.text = booktype.text
print ET.tostring(root, 'utf-8')
