# `xml.parsers.expat` — Análise rápida de XML usando Expat

Aviso

O módulo `pyexpat` não é seguro contra dados construídos de forma maliciosa. Se você precisa processar dados não-confiáveis ou sem autenticação, veja Vulnerabilidades em XML.

O módulo `xml.parsers.expat` é uma interface Python para o analisador XML sem validação do Expat. O módulo fornece um único tipo de extensão, `xmlparser`, que representa o estado atual de um analisador XML. Após um objeto `xmlparser` ter sido criado, vários atributos do objeto podem ser configurados para funções manipuladoras. Quando um documento XML é alimentado no analisador, as funções de tratamento são chamadas para os dados de caracteres e marcação no documento XML.

Este módulo usa o módulo `pyexpat` para fornecer acesso ao analisador sintático Expat. O uso direto do módulo `pyexpat` foi descontinuado.

Este módulo fornece uma exceção e um objeto de tipo:

exception xml.parsers.expat.ExpatError

  A exceção levantada quando o Expat relata um erro. Veja a seção Exceções ExpatError para mais informações sobre como interpretar erros do Expat.

exception xml.parsers.expat.error

  Apelido para `ExpatError`.

xml.parsers.expat.XMLParserType

  O tipo dos valores de retorno da função `ParserCreate()`.

O módulo `xml.parsers.expat` contém duas funções:

xml.parsers.expat.ErrorString(errno)

  Retorna uma string explicativa para um determinado número de erro errno.

xml.parsers.expat.ParserCreate(encoding=None, namespace_separator=None)

  Cria e retorna um novo objeto `xmlparser`. encoding, se especificado, deve ser uma string que nomeia a codificação usada pelos dados XML. Expat não provê tantas codificações quanto Python e seu repertório de codificações não pode ser estendido; provê UTF-8, UTF-16, ISO-8859-1 (Latin1) e ASCII. Se encoding [1] for fornecido, ele substituirá a codificação implícita ou explícita do documento.

  Opcionalmente, o Expat pode fazer o processamento de espaço de nomes XML para você, habilitado ao fornecer um valor para namespace_separator. O valor deve ser uma string de um caractere; uma exceção `ValueError` será levantada se a string tiver um comprimento ilegal (`None` é considerado o mesmo que omissão). Quando o processamento de espaço de nomes estiver ativado, os nomes de tipos de elementos e nomes de atributos que pertencem a um espaço de nomes serão expandidos. O nome do elemento passado para os manipuladores de elemento `StartElementHandler` e `EndElementHandler` será a concatenação do URI do espaço de nomes, o caractere separador do espaço de nomes e a parte local do nome. Se o separador do espaço de nomes for um byte zero (`chr(0)`), então o URI do espaço de nomes e a parte local serão concatenados sem qualquer separador.

  Por exemplo, se namespace_separator for definido como um caractere de espaço (`' '`) e o seguinte documento for analisado:

      <?xml version="1.0"?>
      <root xmlns    = "http://default-namespace.org/"
            xmlns:py = "http://www.python.org/ns/">
        <py:elem1 />
        <elem2 xmlns="" />
      </root>

  `StartElementHandler` receberá as seguintes strings para cada elemento:

      http://default-namespace.org/ root
      http://www.python.org/ns/ elem1
      elem2

  Devido a limitações na biblioteca `Expat` usada por `pyexpat`, a instância `xmlparser` retornada só pode ser usada para analisar um único documento XML. Chame `ParserCreate` para cada documento para fornecer instâncias exclusivas do analisador sintático.

## Objetos XMLParser

`xmlparser` objects have the following methods:

xmlparser.Parse(data[, isfinal])

  Parses the contents of the string data, calling the appropriate handler functions to process the parsed data. isfinal must be true on the final call to this method; it allows the parsing of a single file in fragments, not the submission of multiple files. data can be the empty string at any time.

xmlparser.ParseFile(file)

  Parse XML data reading from the object file. file only needs to provide the `read(nbytes)` method, returning the empty string when there’s no more data.

xmlparser.SetBase(base)

  Sets the base to be used for resolving relative URIs in system identifiers in declarations. Resolving relative identifiers is left to the application: this value will be passed through as the base argument to the `ExternalEntityRefHandler()`, `NotationDeclHandler()`, and `UnparsedEntityDeclHandler()` functions.

xmlparser.GetBase()

  Returns a string containing the base set by a previous call to `SetBase()`, or `None` if `SetBase()` hasn’t been called.

xmlparser.GetInputContext()

  Returns the input data that generated the current event as a string. The data is in the encoding of the entity which contains the text. When called while an event handler is not active, the return value is `None`.

xmlparser.ExternalEntityParserCreate(context[, encoding])

  Create a “child” parser which can be used to parse an external parsed entity referred to by content parsed by the parent parser. The context parameter should be the string passed to the `ExternalEntityRefHandler()` handler function, described below. The child parser is created with the `ordered_attributes` and `specified_attributes` set to the values of this parser.

xmlparser.SetParamEntityParsing(flag)

  Control parsing of parameter entities (including the external DTD subset). Possible flag values are `XML_PARAM_ENTITY_PARSING_NEVER`, `XML_PARAM_ENTITY_PARSING_UNLESS_STANDALONE` and `XML_PARAM_ENTITY_PARSING_ALWAYS`. Return true if setting the flag was successful.

xmlparser.UseForeignDTD([flag])

  Calling this with a true value for flag (the default) will cause Expat to call the `ExternalEntityRefHandler` with `None` for all arguments to allow an alternate DTD to be loaded. If the document does not contain a document type declaration, the `ExternalEntityRefHandler` will still be called, but the `StartDoctypeDeclHandler` and `EndDoctypeDeclHandler` will not be called.

  Passing a false value for flag will cancel a previous call that passed a true value, but otherwise has no effect.

  This method can only be called before the `Parse()` or `ParseFile()` methods are called; calling it after either of those have been called causes `ExpatError` to be raised with the `code` attribute set to `errors.codes[errors.XML_ERROR_CANT_CHANGE_FEATURE_ONCE_PARSING]`.

xmlparser.SetReparseDeferralEnabled(enabled)

  Aviso

  Calling `SetReparseDeferralEnabled(False)` has security implications, as detailed below; please make sure to understand these consequences prior to using the `SetReparseDeferralEnabled` method.

  Expat 2.6.0 introduced a security mechanism called “reparse deferral” where instead of causing denial of service through quadratic runtime from reparsing large tokens, reparsing of unfinished tokens is now delayed by default until a sufficient amount of input is reached. Due to this delay, registered handlers may — depending of the sizing of input chunks pushed to Expat — no longer be called right after pushing new input to the parser. Where immediate feedback and taking over responsiblity of protecting against denial of service from large tokens are both wanted, calling `SetReparseDeferralEnabled(False)` disables reparse deferral for the current Expat parser instance, temporarily or altogether. Calling `SetReparseDeferralEnabled(True)` allows re-enabling reparse deferral.

  Note that `SetReparseDeferralEnabled()` has been backported to some prior releases of CPython as a security fix. Check for availability of `SetReparseDeferralEnabled()` using `hasattr()` if used in code running across a variety of Python versions.

  Adicionado na versão 3.12.3.

xmlparser.GetReparseDeferralEnabled()

  Returns whether reparse deferral is currently enabled for the given Expat parser instance.

  Adicionado na versão 3.12.3.

`xmlparser` objects have the following attributes:

xmlparser.buffer_size

  The size of the buffer used when `buffer_text` is true. A new buffer size can be set by assigning a new integer value to this attribute. When the size is changed, the buffer will be flushed.

xmlparser.buffer_text

  Setting this to true causes the `xmlparser` object to buffer textual content returned by Expat to avoid multiple calls to the `CharacterDataHandler()` callback whenever possible. This can improve performance substantially since Expat normally breaks character data into chunks at every line ending. This attribute is false by default, and may be changed at any time. Note that when it is false, data that does not contain newlines may be chunked too.

xmlparser.buffer_used

  If `buffer_text` is enabled, the number of bytes stored in the buffer. These bytes represent UTF-8 encoded text. This attribute has no meaningful interpretation when `buffer_text` is false.

xmlparser.ordered_attributes

  Setting this attribute to a non-zero integer causes the attributes to be reported as a list rather than a dictionary. The attributes are presented in the order found in the document text. For each attribute, two list entries are presented: the attribute name and the attribute value. (Older versions of this module also used this format.) By default, this attribute is false; it may be changed at any time.

xmlparser.specified_attributes

  If set to a non-zero integer, the parser will report only those attributes which were specified in the document instance and not those which were derived from attribute declarations. Applications which set this need to be especially careful to use what additional information is available from the declarations as needed to comply with the standards for the behavior of XML processors. By default, this attribute is false; it may be changed at any time.

The following attributes contain values relating to the most recent error encountered by an `xmlparser` object, and will only have correct values once a call to `Parse()` or `ParseFile()` has raised an `xml.parsers.expat.ExpatError` exception.

xmlparser.ErrorByteIndex

  Byte index at which an error occurred.

xmlparser.ErrorCode

  Numeric code specifying the problem. This value can be passed to the `ErrorString()` function, or compared to one of the constants defined in the `errors` object.

xmlparser.ErrorColumnNumber

  Column number at which an error occurred.

xmlparser.ErrorLineNumber

  Line number at which an error occurred.

The following attributes contain values relating to the current parse location in an `xmlparser` object. During a callback reporting a parse event they indicate the location of the first of the sequence of characters that generated the event. When called outside of a callback, the position indicated will be just past the last parse event (regardless of whether there was an associated callback).

xmlparser.CurrentByteIndex

  Current byte index in the parser input.

xmlparser.CurrentColumnNumber

  Current column number in the parser input.

xmlparser.CurrentLineNumber

  Current line number in the parser input.

Here is the list of handlers that can be set. To set a handler on an `xmlparser` object o, use `o.handlername = func`. handlername must be taken from the following list, and func must be a callable object accepting the correct number of arguments. The arguments are all strings, unless otherwise stated.

xmlparser.XmlDeclHandler(version, encoding, standalone)

  Called when the XML declaration is parsed. The XML declaration is the (optional) declaration of the applicable version of the XML recommendation, the encoding of the document text, and an optional “standalone” declaration. version and encoding will be strings, and standalone will be `1` if the document is declared standalone, `0` if it is declared not to be standalone, or `-1` if the standalone clause was omitted. This is only available with Expat version 1.95.0 or newer.

xmlparser.StartDoctypeDeclHandler(doctypeName, systemId, publicId, has_internal_subset)

  Called when Expat begins parsing the document type declaration (`<!DOCTYPE ...`). The doctypeName is provided exactly as presented. The systemId and publicId parameters give the system and public identifiers if specified, or `None` if omitted. has_internal_subset will be true if the document contains and internal document declaration subset. This requires Expat version 1.2 or newer.

xmlparser.EndDoctypeDeclHandler()

  Called when Expat is done parsing the document type declaration. This requires Expat version 1.2 or newer.

xmlparser.ElementDeclHandler(name, model)

  Called once for each element type declaration. name is the name of the element type, and model is a representation of the content model.

xmlparser.AttlistDeclHandler(elname, attname, type, default, required)

  Called for each declared attribute for an element type. If an attribute list declaration declares three attributes, this handler is called three times, once for each attribute. elname is the name of the element to which the declaration applies and attname is the name of the attribute declared. The attribute type is a string passed as type; the possible values are `'CDATA'`, `'ID'`, `'IDREF'`, … default gives the default value for the attribute used when the attribute is not specified by the document instance, or `None` if there is no default value (`#IMPLIED` values). If the attribute is required to be given in the document instance, required will be true. This requires Expat version 1.95.0 or newer.

xmlparser.StartElementHandler(name, attributes)

  Called for the start of every element. name is a string containing the element name, and attributes is the element attributes. If `ordered_attributes` is true, this is a list (see `ordered_attributes` for a full description). Otherwise it’s a dictionary mapping names to values.

xmlparser.EndElementHandler(name)

  Called for the end of every element.

xmlparser.ProcessingInstructionHandler(target, data)

  Called for every processing instruction.

xmlparser.CharacterDataHandler(data)

  Called for character data. This will be called for normal character data, CDATA marked content, and ignorable whitespace. Applications which must distinguish these cases can use the `StartCdataSectionHandler`, `EndCdataSectionHandler`, and `ElementDeclHandler` callbacks to collect the required information. Note that the character data may be chunked even if it is short and so you may receive more than one call to `CharacterDataHandler()`. Set the `buffer_text` instance attribute to `True` to avoid that.

xmlparser.UnparsedEntityDeclHandler(entityName, base, systemId, publicId, notationName)

  Called for unparsed (NDATA) entity declarations. This is only present for version 1.2 of the Expat library; for more recent versions, use `EntityDeclHandler` instead. (The underlying function in the Expat library has been declared obsolete.)

xmlparser.EntityDeclHandler(entityName, is_parameter_entity, value, base, systemId, publicId, notationName)

  Called for all entity declarations. For parameter and internal entities, value will be a string giving the declared contents of the entity; this will be `None` for external entities. The notationName parameter will be `None` for parsed entities, and the name of the notation for unparsed entities. is_parameter_entity will be true if the entity is a parameter entity or false for general entities (most applications only need to be concerned with general entities). This is only available starting with version 1.95.0 of the Expat library.

xmlparser.NotationDeclHandler(notationName, base, systemId, publicId)

  Called for notation declarations. notationName, base, and systemId, and publicId are strings if given. If the public identifier is omitted, publicId will be `None`.

xmlparser.StartNamespaceDeclHandler(prefix, uri)

  Called when an element contains a namespace declaration. Namespace declarations are processed before the `StartElementHandler` is called for the element on which declarations are placed.

xmlparser.EndNamespaceDeclHandler(prefix)

  Called when the closing tag is reached for an element that contained a namespace declaration. This is called once for each namespace declaration on the element in the reverse of the order for which the `StartNamespaceDeclHandler` was called to indicate the start of each namespace declaration’s scope. Calls to this handler are made after the corresponding `EndElementHandler` for the end of the element.

xmlparser.CommentHandler(data)

  Called for comments. data is the text of the comment, excluding the leading `'<!-``-'` and trailing `'-``->'`.

xmlparser.StartCdataSectionHandler()

  Called at the start of a CDATA section. This and `EndCdataSectionHandler` are needed to be able to identify the syntactical start and end for CDATA sections.

xmlparser.EndCdataSectionHandler()

  Called at the end of a CDATA section.

xmlparser.DefaultHandler(data)

  Called for any characters in the XML document for which no applicable handler has been specified. This means characters that are part of a construct which could be reported, but for which no handler has been supplied.

xmlparser.DefaultHandlerExpand(data)

  This is the same as the `DefaultHandler()`, but doesn’t inhibit expansion of internal entities. The entity reference will not be passed to the default handler.

xmlparser.NotStandaloneHandler()

  Called if the XML document hasn’t been declared as being a standalone document. This happens when there is an external subset or a reference to a parameter entity, but the XML declaration does not set standalone to `yes` in an XML declaration. If this handler returns `0`, then the parser will raise an `XML_ERROR_NOT_STANDALONE` error. If this handler is not set, no exception is raised by the parser for this condition.

xmlparser.ExternalEntityRefHandler(context, base, systemId, publicId)

  Called for references to external entities. base is the current base, as set by a previous call to `SetBase()`. The public and system identifiers, systemId and publicId, are strings if given; if the public identifier is not given, publicId will be `None`. The context value is opaque and should only be used as described below.

  For external entities to be parsed, this handler must be implemented. It is responsible for creating the sub-parser using `ExternalEntityParserCreate(context)`, initializing it with the appropriate callbacks, and parsing the entity. This handler should return an integer; if it returns `0`, the parser will raise an `XML_ERROR_EXTERNAL_ENTITY_HANDLING` error, otherwise parsing will continue.

  If this handler is not provided, external entities are reported by the `DefaultHandler` callback, if provided.

## Exceções ExpatError

`ExpatError` exceptions have a number of interesting attributes:

ExpatError.code

  Expat’s internal error number for the specific error. The `errors.messages` dictionary maps these error numbers to Expat’s error messages. For example:

      from xml.parsers.expat import ParserCreate, ExpatError, errors

      p = ParserCreate()
      try:
          p.Parse(some_xml_document)
      except ExpatError as err:
          print("Error:", errors.messages[err.code])

  The `errors` module also provides error message constants and a dictionary `codes` mapping these messages back to the error codes, see below.

ExpatError.lineno

  Line number on which the error was detected. The first line is numbered `1`.

ExpatError.offset

  Character offset into the line where the error occurred. The first column is numbered `0`.

## Exemplo

The following program defines three handlers that just print out their arguments.

    import xml.parsers.expat

    # 3 handler functions
    def start_element(name, attrs):
        print('Start element:', name, attrs)
    def end_element(name):
        print('End element:', name)
    def char_data(data):
        print('Character data:', repr(data))

    p = xml.parsers.expat.ParserCreate()

    p.StartElementHandler = start_element
    p.EndElementHandler = end_element
    p.CharacterDataHandler = char_data

    p.Parse("""<?xml version="1.0"?>
    <parent id="top"><child1 name="paul">Text goes here</child1>
    <child2 name="fred">More text</child2>
    </parent>""", 1)

The output from this program is:

    Start element: parent {'id': 'top'}
    Start element: child1 {'name': 'paul'}
    Character data: 'Text goes here'
    End element: child1
    Character data: '\n'
    Start element: child2 {'name': 'fred'}
    Character data: 'More text'
    End element: child2
    Character data: '\n'
    End element: parent

## Content Model Descriptions

Content models are described using nested tuples. Each tuple contains four values: the type, the quantifier, the name, and a tuple of children. Children are simply additional content model descriptions.

The values of the first two fields are constants defined in the `xml.parsers.expat.model` module. These constants can be collected in two groups: the model type group and the quantifier group.

The constants in the model type group are:

xml.parsers.expat.model.XML_CTYPE_ANY

  The element named by the model name was declared to have a content model of `ANY`.

xml.parsers.expat.model.XML_CTYPE_CHOICE

  The named element allows a choice from a number of options; this is used for content models such as `(A | B | C)`.

xml.parsers.expat.model.XML_CTYPE_EMPTY

  Elements which are declared to be `EMPTY` have this model type.

xml.parsers.expat.model.XML_CTYPE_MIXED

xml.parsers.expat.model.XML_CTYPE_NAME

xml.parsers.expat.model.XML_CTYPE_SEQ

  Models which represent a series of models which follow one after the other are indicated with this model type. This is used for models such as `(A, B, C)`.

The constants in the quantifier group are:

xml.parsers.expat.model.XML_CQUANT_NONE

  No modifier is given, so it can appear exactly once, as for `A`.

xml.parsers.expat.model.XML_CQUANT_OPT

  The model is optional: it can appear once or not at all, as for `A?`.

xml.parsers.expat.model.XML_CQUANT_PLUS

  The model must occur one or more times (like `A+`).

xml.parsers.expat.model.XML_CQUANT_REP

  The model must occur zero or more times, as for `A*`.

## Expat error constants

The following constants are provided in the `xml.parsers.expat.errors` module. These constants are useful in interpreting some of the attributes of the `ExpatError` exception objects raised when an error has occurred. Since for backwards compatibility reasons, the constants’ value is the error message and not the numeric error code, you do this by comparing its `code` attribute with `errors.codes[errors.XML_ERROR_CONSTANT_NAME]`.

The `errors` module has the following attributes:

xml.parsers.expat.errors.codes

  A dictionary mapping string descriptions to their error codes.

  Adicionado na versão 3.2.

xml.parsers.expat.errors.messages

  A dictionary mapping numeric error codes to their string descriptions.

Notas de rodapé

[1]

The encoding string included in XML output should conform to the appropriate standards. For example, “UTF-8” is valid, but “UTF8” is not. See https://www.w3.org/TR/2006/REC-xml11-20060816/#NT-EncodingDecl and https://www.iana.org/assignments/character-sets/character-sets.xhtml.
