Python ElementTree unable to parse xml file correctly -


i trying parse xml file using elementree of python. xml file below:

<app xmlns="test attribute">     <name>sagar</name> </app>

parser code:

from xml.etree.elementtree import elementtree xml.etree.elementtree import element import xml.etree.elementtree etree def parser():     eletree = etree.parse('app.xml')     eleroot = eletree.getroot()     print("tag:"+str(eleroot.tag)+"\nattrib:"+str(eleroot.attrib)) if __name__ == "__main__":     parser()

output:

[sagar@linux parser]$ python test.py tag:{test attribute}app  <------------- should print "app" attrib:{}

when remove "xmlns" attribute or rename "xmlns" attribute else eleroot.tag printing correct value. why can't element tree unable parse tags when have "xmlns" attribute in tag. missing pre-requisite parse xml of format using element tree?

your xml uses attribute xmlns, trying define default xml namespace. xml namespaces used solve naming conflicts, , require valid uri value, such value of "test attribute" invalid, appears troubling parsing of xml etree.

for more information on xml namespaces see xml namespaces @ w3 schools.

edit:

after looking issue further appears qualified name of element when using python's elementtree has form {namespace_url}tag_name. means that, defined default namespace of "test attribute", qualified name of "app" tag infact {test attribute}app, you're getting out of program.
