I don't know bulletML and don't have plans for using it, but xml didn't seem
to hard to work with when I needed to. Here's a quick contrived example
based on the "fire" example xml on the website, just to give you a quick
idea of the api. On it's own, it's not too useful.
--Paul
import xml.dom.minidom
# Note that I put some whitespace in the XML, which is parsed as Text
s='<fire> <direction type="absolute">270</direction> <speed>2</speed>
<bulletRef label="rocket"/> </fire>'
dom = xml.dom.minidom.parseString(s)
doc = dom.documentElement
assert doc.tagName == 'fire'
print doc.tagName
for child in doc.childNodes:
if hasattr(child, 'tagName'): # isinstance(child,
xml.dom.minidom.Element) also works...
if child.tagName == 'direction':
outstr = ' direction = ' + child.childNodes[0].data
if child.hasAttribute('type'):
outstr += ', type = ' + child.getAttributeNode('type').value
print outstr
elif child.tagName == 'speed':
print ' speed = ' + child.childNodes[0].data
elif child.tagName == 'bulletRef':
if child.hasAttribute('label'):
print ' bulletRef label = ' +
child.getAttributeNode('label').value
"""
prints:
fire
direction = 270, type = absolute
speed = 2
bulletRef label = rocket
"""
