I am using dicttoxml for generating an XML file in Python.
**xml = dicttoxml(obj, item_func = my_item_func, attr_type=False, custom_root='Benefits')**
and it generates a byte XML which I am again converting to string for my XSD validation.
**strxml = bytes.decode(xml, 'utf-8')**
Issue : When the XML is generated it skips many nodes and are replaced by ..., the reason I think it is doing so because the XML file is very big. I don't want it to skip nodes I want the XML file in its entirety. However when this "xml" byte object is rendered on the browser or when I print in debug mode there is no issue and I get the XML in it's entirety. How can I overcome this problem?
Here is the complete code.
from datetime import date
from dicttoxml import dicttoxml
from xml.dom.minidom import parseString
import json
import xmlschema
def response_handler(self,node, mktsegtype):
isvalidxml = False
if node is not None:
obj = json.loads(json.dumps(node,default=lambda o: dict((key, value) for key, value in o.__dict__.items() if value is not None),indent=4,allow_nan=False))
my_item_func = lambda x: 'cvrg' if x == "Covered" else('Insure' if x == "Insurance" else x[:-1])
xml = dicttoxml(obj, item_func = my_item_func, attr_type=False, custom_root='Benefits')
isvalidxml = self.validatexmlwithxsd(xml, mktsegtype)
if(isvalidxml):
return xml
else:
return None
def validatexmlwithxsd(self, xml, mktsegtype):
valid = False
xsd = None
strxml = bytes.decode(xml, 'utf-8')
if(mktsegtype == "XXX"):
xsd = xmlschema.XMLSchema('tests/test_cases/examples/vehicles/vehicles.xsd')
elif(mktsegtype == "YYY"):
xsd = xmlschema.XMLSchema('tests/test_cases/examples/vehicles/boat.xsd')
valid = xsd.is_valid(strxml)
return valid
E.g.of node generated
<cvrg>
<cvrgID>285</cvrgID>
<cvrgCoveredRtl>1</cvrgCoveredRtl>
<cvrgCoveredMail>1</cvrgCoveredMail>
**<cvrgO...goryAgeLimitMax>**
</cvrgAgeLimitMax>
<cvrgOutOfLimitActionAge></cvrgOutOfLimitActionAge>
<cvrgOutOfLimitActionGender></cvrgOutOfLimitActionGender>
</cvrg>
<cvrg>
<cvrgID>559</cvrgID>
<cvrgCoveredRtl>2</cvrgCoveredRtl>
<cvrgCoveredMail>2</cvrgCoveredMail>
<cvrgOutOfLimitActionAge></cvrgOutOfLimitActionAge>
<cvrgOutOfLimitActionGender></cvrgOutOfLimitActionGender>
</cvrg>
Update 1: - I tried to capture the print output to a variable, based on below url Python: Assign print output to a variable.
s = StringIO()
print(xml, file=s,flush=True)
result = s.getvalue()
In this case also I getting a truncated XML nodes(with...) but as I mentioned in my original post when I print the byte object in the debug window or render it into the browser I am getting the entire XML. Any suggestion or help!!!
