I like to use zip and zip-filter with xml files. For example (suppose clojure.zip is aliased as zip and clojure.contrib.zip-filter.xml is aliased as zf):
(def bo-zip (zip/xml-zip (xml/parse "http://api.twitter.com/1/statuses/ friends/barackobama.xml" Then I can use zip-filters to get the info I want. To get all the user id's: (zf/xml-> bo-zip :user :id zf/text) To get screen names: (zf/xml-> bo-zip :user :screen_name zf/text) To get both at once, use juxt (normally I would give the filters names ahead of time, to improve readablity): ((juxt #(zf/xml-> % :user :id zf/text) #(zf/xml-> % :user :screen_name zf/text)) bo-zip) That gives you a vector of two lists. You could interleave them, and turn them into a hash map, or deal with them as is. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
