Hi all,
I'm happy to introduce the first release of bridge. A general purpose
XML library for Python and IronPython (and ultimately Jython).
bridge is very simple and light. It basically let you load an XML
document via a set of different parsers (xml.dom, Amara, lxml,
System.Xml) and creates a tree of Elements and Attributes before
releasing the parser resources.
This means that once the document is loaded it is independent from the
underlying parser.
bridge then provides a straightforward interface to navigate through the
tree and manipulate it.
bridge does not try to replace underlying XML engines but offer a common
API so that your applications are less dependent of those engines.
bridge offers a couple of other goodies however to play with the tree of
elements (see the documentation).
== Download ==
* easy_install -U bridge
* Tarballs http://www.defuze.org/oss/bridge/
* svn co https://svn.defuze.org/oss/bridge/
== Documentation ==
http://trac.defuze.org/wiki/bridge
Hope this will help a few people in working with XML without worrying on
which engine they choose to use.
Have fun,
