XML ORM -- XML document to Python object mapping
This library is inspired by Django object to relation
layer. XML document
schemas are represented by Python classes with fields corresponding to nested
elements and attributes. Document namespaces and encodings are stored as class
Meta information. Object instances are transparently loaded from XML documents,
with validation on load and save operations. Object-oriented approach allows
reusing of schema elements by inheritance and overriding of XML elements and
attributes represented by Python class members. XML namespaces, serialization
an de-serialization to different encodings and optional schema validation are
supported, along with most common XSD types to Python objects mapping. XSD
inspection utility is provided for conversion of existing XSD schemas to Python
objects (very much work in progress, but usable for simple schemas).
Documentation is work in progress, mostly in Russian. For reference see source
of test.py
which showcases all current features.
