Publisher review:XIST is an extensible HTML and XML generator. XIST is an extensible HTML and XML generator. XIST is also a XML parser with a very simple and pythonesque tree API.
Every XML element type corresponds to a Python class and these Python classes provide a conversion method to transform the XML tree (e.g. into HTML). XIST can be considered 'object oriented XSLT'. XIST was written as a replacement for the HTML preprocessor HSC, and borrows some features and ideas from it. It also borrows the basic ideas (XML/HTML elements as Python objects) from HTMLgen and HyperText. Requirements: · Python 2.5; · Python Imaging Library; · libxml2 and its Python wrapper (if you want to parse "broken" HTML); · elinks (if you want want to use the function ll.xist.ns.html.astext); · setuptools (if you want to install this package as an egg); · py.test (if you want to run the test suite) · C compiler supported by distutils, if you want to install the source distribution.
XIST 5.8.1 is a Python script for Development Tools scripts design by livinglogic.de.
It runs on following operating system: Windows / Linux / Mac OS / BSD / Solaris and has as system requierments: py.test (if you want to run the test suite)
elinks (if you want want to use the function ll.xist.ns.html.astext);
Python Imaging Library;
libxml2 and its Python wrapper (if you want to parse "broken" HTML);
set.
