python - Search Text and replace with lxml -

-

i need search text in multi-line xml file have multiple tags. xml file looks 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <nc:data xmlns:nc="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:netconf:base:1.0">     <system xmlns="http://www.abc.xyz">       <context>             <name>context_1</name>             <host>                 <name>xyz</name>                 <tag1>                     <name>pqr</name>                     <role>s1</role>                     <tag2>test</tag2>                 </tag1>                 <tag2>                     <name>pqr</name>                     <role>s1</role>                     <tag2>test</tag2>                 </tag2>                           </host>       </context>     </system> </nc:data>

i want search appearances of text "test" in xml file , list parent tag in output. unfortunately unable so.

the python code have written : 

import os import xml  import sys  xml.dom import minidom import xml.etree.elementtree et  def xml_parsing():     '''      open('file.xml', 'rt') f:         tree = et.parse(f)         node in tree.findall('.//context'):             print node, node.tag, node.attrib             url = node.attrib.get('tag1')             print url   xml_parsing()

i getting blank result output , unable beyond it. have tried both elementtree , lxml. believe has search pattern trying find using findall.

please advise expert comments should tried now.

i tried sax way , code this:

xmldoc = minidom.parse('file.xml') reflist = xmldoc.getelementsbytagname('tag1') print reflist[0].toxml()

but returns me complete line other value between tags.

xpath expression find element, regardless of element name , location in xml document, having text value equals test //*[text()='test'] or alternatively //*[.='test'].

consider following working lxml example demonstrate finding such elements , update value :

from lxml import etree et  xml = '''<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <nc:data xmlns:nc="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:netconf:base:1.0">     <system xmlns="http://www.abc.xyz">       <context>             <name>context_1</name>             <host>                 <name>xyz</name>                 <tag1>                     <name>pqr</name>                     <role>s1</role>                     <tag2>test</tag2>                 </tag1>                 <tag2>                     <name>pqr</name>                     <role>s1</role>                     <tag2>test</tag2>                 </tag2>                           </host>       </context>     </system> </nc:data>'''  tree = et.fromstring(xml) node in tree.xpath("//*[.='test']"):     #update node value new text 'foo'     node.text = 'foo'     print et.tostring(node)

output :

<tag2 xmlns="http://www.abc.xyz" xmlns:nc="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:netconf:base:1.0">foo</tag2>  <tag2 xmlns="http://www.abc.xyz" xmlns:nc="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:netconf:base:1.0">foo</tag2>

asp.net - 'System.Web.HttpContext' does not contain a definition for 'GetOwinContext' Mystery -

i realize question might seem trivial some, it's these types of things find myself fighting quite bit , want make sense of despite seeming losing battle in .net (for me anyway). so, if following: using system.web; ... applicationuser user = system.web.httpcontext.getowincontext().getusermanager<applicationusermanager>().findbyid(system.web.httpcontext.user.identity.getuserid()); that produces error in title , red getowincontext() , error cannot resolve symbol 'getowincontext()' however, if following (remove system.web in front of httpcontext ), works expected (or @ least no errors): using system.web; ... applicationuser user = httpcontext.getowincontext().getusermanager<applicationusermanager>().findbyid(system.web.httpcontext.user.identity.getuserid()); however, if (same line that's working using system.web commented out): //using system.web; ... applicationuser user = httpcontext.getowincontext().getusermana...

mercurial graft feature, can it copy? -

there new feature in mercurial 3, called 'graft' (graft local). job of moving change-set different branch. is there way "copy" change-set branch? i interested in in moving stuff qa branch production branch, still need code reside in qa. want copy. found , have tried few things, maybe it'll become clear more tinkering , reading... does have better way of 'cherry picking' change-sets move cross branch (or trunk)??? graft copies changesets, doesn't move them. hg graft (emphasis mine): this command uses mercurial's merge logic copy individual changes other branches without merging branches in history graph. known 'backporting' or 'cherry-picking' . default, graft copy user, date, , description source changesets.
