I am trying to get a list of elements with a specific xsd type with lxml 2.x and I can't figure out how to traverse the xsd for specific types.
Example of schema:
<xsd:element name="ServerOwner" type="srvrs:string90" minOccurs="0">
<xsd:element name="HostName" type="srvrs:string35" minOccurs="0">
Example xml data:
<srvrs:ServerOwner>John Doe</srvrs:ServerOwner>
<srvrs:HostName>box01.example.com</srvrs:HostName>
The ideal function would look like:
elements = getElems(xml_doc, 'string90')
def getElems(xml_doc, xsd_type):
** xpath or something to find the elements and build a dict
return elements
