Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Extract strings within XML file between different delimiters Post 302602967 by chihung on Tuesday 28th of February 2012 07:52:29 PM

It is safer to use an XML tool to extract the information. Just install perl-XML-XPath
Code:
#!/usr/bin/perl

use XML::XPath;

$filename = 'stdin';
$xpath = XML::XPath->new(ioref => \*STDIN);
$nodes = $xpath->find('//*[@oa_var]');
foreach my $node ($nodes->get_nodelist) {
        print $node->getAttribute('oa_var'), " ";
        $text=$node->getFirstChild();
        if ( $text ) {
                print $text->getData();
        }
        print "\n";
}

XPath::Node(3pm)					User Contributed Perl Documentation					  XPath::Node(3pm)

NAME
XML::XPath::Node - internal representation of a node API
The Node API aims to emulate DOM to some extent, however the API isn't quite compatible with DOM. This is to ease transition from XML::DOM programming to XML::XPath. Compatibility with DOM may arise once XML::DOM gets namespace support. new Creates a new node. See the sub-classes for parameters to pass to new(). getNodeType Returns one of ELEMENT_NODE, TEXT_NODE, COMMENT_NODE, ATTRIBUTE_NODE, PROCESSING_INSTRUCTION_NODE or NAMESPACE_NODE. UNKNOWN_NODE is returned if the sub-class doesn't implement getNodeType - but that means something is broken! The constants are exported by default from XML::XPath::Node. The constants have the same numeric value as the XML::DOM versions. getParentNode Returns the parent of this node, or undef if this is the root node. Note that the root node is the root node in terms of XPath - not the root element node. to_sax ( $handler | %handlers ) Generates sax calls to the handler or handlers. See the PerlSAX docs for details (not yet implemented correctly). MORE INFO
See the sub-classes for the meaning of the rest of the API: o XML::XPath::Node::Element o XML::XPath::Node::Attribute o XML::XPath::Node::Namespace o XML::XPath::Node::Text o XML::XPath::Node::Comment o XML::XPath::Node::PI perl v5.10.1 2003-01-26 XPath::Node(3pm)
