使用 Python 从 Word 文档中提取 XML 的困难

Question

I'm trying to extract the XML from a Word document with Python using the code found on this webpage.

I began by creating a test document named test.docx . I then ran the following code:

import zipfile
from lxml import etree

def getXml(docxFilename):
    zip = zipfile.ZipFile(open(docxFilename))
    xmlContent = zip.read("word/document.xml")
    return xmlContent

def getXmlTree(xmlContent):
    return etree.fromstring(xmlContent)

testXml = getXml("test.docx")
print(getXmlTree(testXml))

Running this code produced the error message "File is not a zip file". What did I do wrong?

Answer 1

you need to pass the path of docx file as a argument, not particularly docx file. compress the file and make the path in zip format

ex: "D:/Users/John/docs/data.zip"
