Parsing Gxl In Python

I need to parse a GXL file (a kind of XML for graph representation) into python. I have the simplest example: V

Solution 1:

The built-in xml.etree.ElementTree would makes things a bit easier. Example:

import xml.etree.ElementTree as ETtree= ET.parse("filename")

for node in tree.findall(".//node/attr/string"):
    node_value = node.text
    dw(node_value)

Solution 2:

Just in case anyone looked for it later, here is how my dk (for reading multiple tags) works with the same xml.etree.ElementTree library:

for edge in tree.findall(".//edge"):
    start= edge.get('from')
    end= edge.get('to')
    dk(start,end)
