Appendix F. Additional Python XML Tools
This appendix details some other options for working with Python and XML that didn’t receive much coverage in the book. Python and XML has tried to cover the popular API standards, because they are most likely what is leveraged across multiple programming environments, languages, and even jobs. If you are going to work with XML, you must understand the DOM. Python happens to be a language where all of the standard APIs are available. For all of these reasons, this book focuses on the DOM, XPath, XSLT, SOAP, and others.
In this section, explore some of the alternatives for working with XML from Python. Some of these tools provide equivalent functionality to the tools used elsewhere in the book, but using an implementation that may be more appropriate in another context.
