I m using
Creating a simple XML file using python
and
inserting newlines in xml file generated via xml.etree.ElementTree in python
but my xml subelement has 2 spaces from left, instead of a tab, how do I switch to a tab for a subelement and not 2 spaces?
Set indent
argument of toprettyxml()
to \\t
:
from xml.dom import minidom
import xml.etree.cElementTree as ET
root = ET.Element("root")
doc = ET.SubElement(root, "doc")
field1 = ET.SubElement(doc, "field1")
field1.set("name", "blah")
field1.text = "some value1"
field2 = ET.SubElement(doc, "field2")
field2.set("name", "asdfasd")
field2.text = "some vlaue2"
dom = minidom.parseString(ET.tostring(root))
print dom.toprettyxml(indent='\t')
prints:
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<root>
<doc>
<field1 name="blah">some value1</field1>
<field2 name="asdfasd">some vlaue2</field2>
</doc>
</root>
