Simple Python Library to convert JSON to XML
Project description
Simple Python Library to convert JSON to XML
- Free software: Apache Software License 2.0
- Documentation: https://json2xml.readthedocs.io.
Update
The dict2xml project has been integrated in the project itself. This helped with cleaning up the code and making improvements. Long term goal for the project is to reduce the number of dependencies.
Features
It lets you convert json to xml in following ways:
- from a json string
- from a json file
- from an API that emits json data
Usage
The usage is simple:
from json2xml import json2xml from json2xml.utils import readfromurl, readfromstring, readfromjson # get the xml from an URL that return json data = readfromurl("https://coderwall.com/vinitcool76.json") print(json2xml.Json2xml(data).to_xml()) # get the xml from a json string data = readfromstring( '{"login":"mojombo","id":1,"avatar_url":"https://avatars0.githubusercontent.com/u/1?v=4"}' ) print(json2xml.Json2xml(data).to_xml()) # get the data from an URL data = readfromjson("examples/licht.json") print(json2xml.Json2xml(data).to_xml())
Custom Wrappers and indent
By default, a wrapper all and pretty True is set. However, you can change this easily in your code like this:
from json2xml import json2xml from json2xml.utils import readfromurl, readfromstring, readfromjson data = readfromstring( '{"login":"mojombo","id":1,"avatar_url":"https://avatars0.githubusercontent.com/u/1?v=4"}' ) print(json2xml.Json2xml(data, wrapper="all", pretty=True).to_xml())
Outputs this:
<?xml version="1.0" ?> <all> <login type="str">mojombo</login> <id type="int">1</id> <avatar_url type="str">https://avatars0.githubusercontent.com/u/1?v=4</avatar_url> </all>
Omit List item
Assume the following json input
{ "my_items": [ { "my_item": { "id": 1 } }, { "my_item": { "id": 2 } } ], "my_str_items": ["a", "b"] }
By default, items in an array are wrapped in <item></item>.
Default output:
<?xml version="1.0" ?> <all> <my_items type="list"> <item type="dict"> <my_item type="dict"> <id type="int">1</id> </my_item> </item> <item type="dict"> <my_item type="dict"> <id type="int">2</id> </my_item> </item> </my_items> <my_str_items type="list"> <item type="str">a</item> <item type="str">b</item> </my_str_items> <empty type="list"/> </all>
However, you can change this behavior using the item_wrap property like this:
from json2xml import json2xml from json2xml.utils import readfromurl, readfromstring, readfromjson data = readfromstring('{"my_items":[{"my_item":{"id":1} },{"my_item":{"id":2} }],"my_str_items":["a","b"]}') print(json2xml.Json2xml(data, item_wrap=False).to_xml())
Outputs this:
<?xml version="1.0" ?> <all> <my_items type="list"> <my_item type="dict"> <id type="int">1</id> </my_item> <my_item type="dict"> <id type="int">2</id> </my_item> </my_items> <my_str_items type="str">a</my_str_items> <my_str_items type="str">b</my_str_items> </all>
Optional Attribute Type Support
Now, we can also specify if the output xml needs to have type specified or not. Here is the usage:
from json2xml import json2xml from json2xml.utils import readfromurl, readfromstring, readfromjson data = readfromstring( '{"login":"mojombo","id":1,"avatar_url":"https://avatars0.githubusercontent.com/u/1?v=4"}' ) print(json2xml.Json2xml(data, wrapper="all", pretty=True, attr_type=False).to_xml())
Outputs this:
<?xml version="1.0" ?> <all> <login>mojombo</login> <id>1</id> <avatar_url>https://avatars0.githubusercontent.com/u/1?v=4</avatar_url> </all>
The methods are simple and easy to use and there are also checks inside of code to exit cleanly in case any of the input(file, string or API URL) returns invalid JSON.
Testing
This is provided by pytest, which is straight forward.
virtualenv venv -p $(which python3.9) pip install -r requirements-dev.txt python setup.py install pytest
