XML package for Python

The PyXML package is a collection of libraries to process XML with Python. It contains, among other things

• xmlproc: a validating XML parser.
• Expat: a fast non-validating parser.
• sgmlop: a C helper module that can speed-up xmllib.py and sgmllib.py by a factor of 5.
• PySAX: SAX 1 and SAX2 libraries with drivers for most of the parsers.
• 4DOM: A fully compliant DOM Level 2 implementation
• javadom: An adapter from Java DOM implementations to the standard Python DOM binding.
• pulldom: a DOM implementation that supports lazy instantiation of nodes.
• marshal: a module with several options for serializing Python objects to XML, including WDDX and XML-RPC.

Downloads are made available on SourceForge.

The documentation is still being updated and completed.

The package code is being maintained as a SourceForge Project. Discussion of the package, and other aspects of XML processing with Python, is the subject of the XML SIG.
