针对Yahoo的XML格式的天气预报数据,获取当天和最近几天的天气:
开始解析:
#-*-coding:UTF-8-*-import xml.etree.ElementTree as etreeweatherxml = etree.parse('yahooweather.xml')tree = weatherxml.getroot()for root in tree:# print root #channel 直接的一级子元素pindao = tree.findall('channel')des = pindao[0].find('title')print des.textfor elem in tree.iter(tag='pubDate'): #iter() 深度优先搜素遍历print elem.textfor elem in tree.iter(tag='{http://xml.weather.yahoo.com/ns/rss/1.0}condition'):print elem.attribfor elem in tree.iter(tag='{http://xml.weather.yahoo.com/ns/rss/1.0}forecast'):print elem.attrib
yweather:condition
yweather:forecast
冒号前表示命名空间 通过xml文件可以知道yweather=http://xml.weather.yahoo.com/ns/rss/1.0
结果如下:
