I am trying to implement a function that receives a dynamically number of node names from *args
and concatenates it to my xmltodict.parse()
. Is it possible?
Below is an example of what I'm trying to achieve where *args
would pass 3 arguments (first, second and third node):
def parseXML(xml, *args):
xd = xmltodict.parse(xml)['First_Node']['Second_Node']['Third_Node']
df = pd.json_normalize(xd)
return df
CodePudding user response:
The following should work
def parseXML(xml, *args):
xd = xmltodict.parse(xml)
for arg in args:
xd = xd[arg]
df = pd.json_normalize(xd)
return df
