I would want to print the following:
<a>
<a> <b>
<a> <b> text: this is node b
<a> <c>
<a> <c> text: this is node c
<a> <c> <d>
<a> <c> <e>
<a> <c> <e> text: this is node e
<a> <f>
<a> <f> this is node f
Is there a simple way to do this? Any help would be appreciated.
in stock ET, using a parent map is probably the easiest way to do this:
http://effbot.org/zone/element.htm#accessing-parents
that is, for a given ET structure "tree", you can do
parent_map = dict((c, p) for p in tree.getiterator() for c in p)
def get_parents(elem):
parents = []
while 1:
elem = parent_map.get(elem)
if elem is None:
break
parents.append(elem)
return reversed(parents)
for elem in tree.getiterator():
print list(get_parents(elem)), elem
</F>
