I want to copy some data from.xml file based on some search value. In below xml file I want to search 0xCCB7B836 ( 0xCCB7B836 )and copy data inside that

d04b41b15e2b13c2
one more example: search value 0xECFBBA1A
and return 0000
or
search value 0xA54E2B5A
and return 30d4

Assuming that we have this xml
data inside a file named test.xml
, you can do something like that:
import xml.etree.ElementTree as ET
tree = ET.parse('test.xml')
root = tree.getroot()
def search_and_copy(query):
for child in root.findall("MEM_SECTOR/MEM_BLOCK"):
if child.find("MEM_BLOCK_CRC").text == query:
return [item.text for item in child.findall("MEM_BLOCK_DATA/*")]
Let's try this search_and_copy()
function out:
>>> search_and_copy("0xCCB7B836")
['4e564d2d52656648', '6173685374617274', '1782af065966579e', '899885d440d3ad67', 'd04b41b15e2b13c2']
>>> search_and_copy("0xA54E2B5A")
['30d4']
We can use xpath , with python's xml etree and elementpath to write a function to retrieve the data:
Breakdown of the code below (within the elementpath.Selector
):
1. the first line looks for elements that have our search string
2. The second line ..
goes back one step to get the parent element
3. Proceeding from the parent element, this line searches for MEM_PAGE_DATA
within the parent element. This element holds the data we are actually interested in.
4. The rest of the code simply pulls the text from the matches
import xml.etree.ElementTree as ET
import elementpath
#wrapped the shared data into a test.xml file
root = ET.parse('test.xml').getroot()
def find_data(search_string):
selector = elementpath.Selector(f""".//*[text()='{search_string}']
//..
//MEM_PAGE_DATA""")
#pull text from the match
result = [entry.text for entry in selector.select(root)]
return result
Test on the strings provided:
find_data("0xCCB7B836")
['4e564d2d52656648',
'6173685374617274',
'1782af065966579e',
'899885d440d3ad67',
'd04b41b15e2b13c2']
find_data("0xECFBBA1A")
['0000']
find_data("0xA54E2B5A")
['30d4']
