I don't know pyquery, so there may still be better ways. This is how far I 
got with dir() and the common Python wisdom "Never use range(len(...))":

>>> import pyquery
>>> d = pyquery.PyQuery(filename="horse.xml")
>>> pairs = [(n.attrib["horse"], n.attrib["id"]) for n in d("nomination")]
>>> import pprint
>>> pprint.pprint(pairs)
[('Vergara', '171115'),
 ('Heavens Above', '187674'),
 ('Sweet Fire', '184732'),
 ('Alegria', '181928'),
 ('Piamimi', '158914'),
 ('Blendwell', '171408'),
 ('Adorabeel (NZ)', '166836'),
 ('Mary Lou', '172933'),
 ('Skyline Blush', '182533'),
 ('All Cerise', '171801'),
 ('Gust of Wind (NZ)', '181079')]

pprint is not really necessary, it just gives more readable output than

>>> pairs
[('Vergara', '171115'), ('Heavens Above', '187674'), ('Sweet Fire', 
'184732'), ('Alegria', '181928'), ('Piamimi', '158914'), ('Blendwell', 
'171408'), ('Adorabeel (NZ)', '166836'), ('Mary Lou', '172933'), ('Skyline 
Blush', '182533'), ('All Cerise', '171801'), ('Gust of Wind (NZ)', 
'181079')]

To extract more than one attribute operator.itemgetter comes in handy:

>>> from operator import itemgetter
>>> get = itemgetter("horse", "id", "saddlecloth")
>>> pprint.pprint([get(n.attrib) for n in d("nomination")])
[('Vergara', '171115', '4'),
 ('Heavens Above', '187674', '2'),
 ('Sweet Fire', '184732', '6'),
 ('Alegria', '181928', '7'),
 ('Piamimi', '158914', '11'),
 ('Blendwell', '171408', '10'),
 ('Adorabeel (NZ)', '166836', '3'),
 ('Mary Lou', '172933', '8'),
 ('Skyline Blush', '182533', '9'),
 ('All Cerise', '171801', '5'),
 ('Gust of Wind (NZ)', '181079', '1')]

If you need to do some post-processing use a helper function:

>>> def extract(n):
... attrib = n.attrib
... id = int(attrib["id"])
... name = attrib["horse"].upper()
... return id, name
... 
>>> pprint.pprint([extract(n) for n in d("nomination")])
[(171115, 'VERGARA'),
 (187674, 'HEAVENS ABOVE'),
 (184732, 'SWEET FIRE'),
 (181928, 'ALEGRIA'),
 (158914, 'PIAMIMI'),
 (171408, 'BLENDWELL'),
 (166836, 'ADORABEEL (NZ)'),
 (172933, 'MARY LOU'),
 (182533, 'SKYLINE BLUSH'),
 (171801, 'ALL CERISE'),
 (181079, 'GUST OF WIND (NZ)')]

Oops sorry, everytime I posted I then thought of another resource and kept 
reading.

I have a working messy solution hopefully I can resolve it to something nicer.

You're getting very chatty with yourself, which is fine... but do you
need to quote your entire previous message every time? We really don't
need another copy of your XML file in every post.

Thanks!

What iterable method should I use for Lists of Lists

2016-04-17 Thread Sayth Renshaw 
Hi

I have an XML and using pyquery to obtain the elements within it and then write 
it to csv.

What is the best most reliable way to take dictionaries of each element, and 
print them(csv write later) based on each position so get item 0 of each list 
and then it 1 and so on.

Any other code I post is open to criticism. Because there are many attributes I 
will want to collect my thought is to create a list of lists, again seems a bit 
clunky so could be wrong.

from pyquery import PyQuery as pq


d = pq(filename='20160319RHIL0_edit.xml')
res = d('nomination')
# myAt = pq.each(res.attr('bbid'))
# print(repr(res))
# myAt = [res.eq(i).attr('horse') for i in range(len(res))]
# print(myAt)

nomID = [res.eq(i).attr('horse') for i in range(len(res))]
horseName = [res.eq(i).attr('horse') for i in range(len(res))]
group = [nomID, horseName]

for items in group:
print(items)


This is my source.

If I do this


nomID = [res.eq(i).attr('horse') for i in range(len(res))]
horseName = [res.eq(i).attr('horse') for i in range(len(res))]
print(nomID, horseName)

comes out correctly

In [7]: 171115 Vergara

Since I will be taking another 10 attributes out of nominmation category an 
efficient way that ensures data integrity would be valued.

Thanks

Sayth
