Python lxml parsing svg file

Question

I am trying to parse .svg files from http://kanjivg.tagaini.net/ , but I cannot successfully extract the information inside.

Edit 1: (full file) http://www.filedropper.com/0f9ab

The part is 0f9ab.svgas follows:

<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="109" height="109" viewBox="0 0 109 109">
<g id="kvg:StrokePaths_0f9ab" style="fill:none;stroke:#000000;stroke-width:3;stroke-linecap:round;stroke-linejoin:round;">
<g id="kvg:0f9ab" kvg:element="嶺">
    <g id="kvg:0f9ab-g1" kvg:element="山" kvg:position="top" kvg:radical="general">
        <path id="kvg:0f9ab-s1" kvg:type="㇑a" d="M53.26,9.38c0.99,0.99,1.12,2.09,1.12,3.12c0,0.67,0.06,8.38,0.06,13.01"/>
        <path id="kvg:0f9ab-s2" kvg:type="㇄a"
    </g>
</g>
</g>

My .py file:

import lxml.etree as ET

svg = ET.parse('0f9ab.svg')
print(svg)  # <lxml.etree._ElementTree object at 0x7f3a2f659ec8>

# AttributeError: 'lxml.etree._ElementTree' object has no attribute 'tag'
print(svg.tag)

# TypeError: 'lxml.etree._ElementTree' object is not subscriptable
print(svg[0])

# TypeError: 'lxml.etree._ElementTree' object is not iterable
for child in svg:
    print(child)

# None
print(svg.find("./svg"))

# []
print(svg.findall("//g"))

# []
print(svg.xpath("//g"))

purpose

I tried all kinds of operations that I could think of, but nothing gives me any data from the .svg file. I want to extract kanji (Japanese character) in kvg:element="kanji"(which are at different levels of depth).

Question

• Uses the lxmlwrong package for this?
• If not, how do I extract information from my .svg syntax file?

Another solution

• , , kvg:element=", xml /svg.
• xmltodict, kvg:element, .

Answer 1

.parse() ElementTree, . , Element, , .

:

xml = ET.parse('0f9ab.svg')
svg = xml.getroot()
print(svg)  # <lxml.etree._ElementTree object at 0x7f3a2f659ec8>

, .

, .findall() , , :

print(svg.findall(".//{http://www.w3.org/2000/svg}g"))
