试图用Python解析非常糟糕的XML

Question

我试图在购买域名后使用python解析xml输出。到目前为止，我已经：

#!/usr/bin/python

import sys
from BeautifulSoup import BeautifulSoup, BeautifulStoneSoup

file = sys.argv[1]
xml = open(file).read()
soup = BeautifulStoneSoup(xml)
response = soup.find('ApiResponse')

print response

我使用的XML输出格式非常错误，必须清理。在

^{pr2}$

这是pastebin上的“xml”。在

我试图找到ApiResponse Status，它是ERROR或{}

Answer 1

那里的XML绝对没有问题。在

问题是XML嵌入在JSON中，JSON本身嵌入在某种我无法立即识别的对象中。（我的怀疑是，您刚刚从您用来发出请求的任何框架中抛出了某种对象的repr，这是一件愚蠢的事情……）

所以，以适当的方式解析顶级的东西，不管它是什么格式。（如果您不知道它是从哪里来的，看起来您可以很容易地完成.partition('=>')[-1]）然后用json.loads解析JSON。然后得到结果dict的['content']，这是XML，可以用BeautifulSoup解析它。那你就完了。在

换句话说：

>>> thingy = r''' ok: [162.243.95.241] => {"cache_control": "private", "changed": false, "content": "<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"utf-8\"?>\r\n<ApiResponse Status=\"OK\" xmlns=\"http://api.namecheap.com/xml.response\">\r\n  <Errors />\r\n  <Warnings />\r\n  <RequestedCommand>namecheap.domains.create</RequestedCommand>\r\n  <CommandResponse Type=\"namecheap.domains.create\">\r\n    <DomainCreateResult Domain=\"123er321test.com\" Registered=\"true\" ChargedAmount=\"8.1800\" DomainID=\"33404\" OrderID=\"414562\" TransactionID=\"679462\" WhoisguardEnable=\"false\" FreePositiveSSL=\"false\" NonRealTimeDomain=\"false\" />\r\n  </CommandResponse>\r\n  <Server>WEB1-SANDBOX1</Server>\r\n  <GMTTimeDifference> 5:00</GMTTimeDifference>\r\n  <ExecutionTime>9.008</ExecutionTime>\r\n</ApiResponse>", "content_length": "647", "content_location": "https://api.sandbox.namecheap.com/xml.response", "content_type": "text/xml; charset=utf-8", "date": "Thu, 21 Nov 2013 03:23:51 GMT", "item": "", "redirected": false, "server": "Microsoft-IIS/7.0", "status": 200, "x_aspnet_version": "4.0.30319", "x_powered_by": "ASP.NET"}'''
>>> j = thingy.partition('=>')[-1]
>>> obj = json.loads(j)
>>> xml = obj['content']
>>> soup = BeautifulSoup(xml)
>>> soup
