> And generate xml file using python.

A simple example using minidom (a DOM implementation):

>>>from xml.dom.minidom import Document
>>>newdoc = Document()
>>> docindex = newdoc.createElement("docindex") 
<DOM Element: docindex at 135900804>
>>> newdoc.appendChild(docindex) 
<DOM Element: docindex at 136339140>
>>> newdoc.createElement("entry") 
<DOM Element: entry at 136226028> 
>>> docindex.appendChild(entry)
>>> newdoc.toxml() 
'<?xml version="1.0" ?>\n<docindex><entry/></docindex>'

and so on :-) (see
http://python.org/doc/current/lib/module-xml.dom.minidom.html)
