Hi all, I'm happy to introduce the first release of bridge. A general purpose XML library for Python and IronPython (and ultimately Jython).
bridge is very simple and light. It basically let you load an XML document via a set of different parsers (xml.dom, Amara, lxml, System.Xml) and creates a tree of Elements and Attributes before releasing the parser resources. This means that once the document is loaded it is independent from the underlying parser. bridge then provides a straightforward interface to navigate through the tree and manipulate it. bridge does not try to replace underlying XML engines but offer a common API so that your applications are less dependent of those engines. bridge offers a couple of other goodies however to play with the tree of elements (see the documentation). == Download == * easy_install -U bridge * Tarballs http://www.defuze.org/oss/bridge/ * svn co https://svn.defuze.org/oss/bridge/ == Documentation == http://trac.defuze.org/wiki/bridge Hope this will help a few people in working with XML without worrying on which engine they choose to use. Have fun, -- Sylvain Hellegouarch http://www.defuze.org -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-announce-list Support the Python Software Foundation: http://www.python.org/psf/donations.html
