How to insert a CSV within xml element tag using Python?
Hi Team,
I have a CSV file which I have to read through and needs to insert the content within an XML file using Python ONLY ( as most of the code base we have in python only). I managed to find the first part, missing how to insert to XML under "specific" tags.
Code:
cat input.csv
Host,PUBLICIP,PRIVATEIP,RAC
hactive,10.47.47.196,427.47.47.196,01
hpassive,10.47.47.197,47.47.47.197,01
hutility,10.47.47.198,47.47.47.198,01
datanode1,10.47.47.199,47.47.47.199,01
datanode2,10.47.47.207,47.47.47.207,01

Code:
import os,sys
import csv
from xml.etree import ElementTree as ET

str = ""

with open('input.csv', mode='r') as csv_file:
    csv_reader = csv.DictReader(csv_file)
    for row in csv_reader:
        str += '<Host_name="' + row["Host"] + '" Private_Addr="' + row["PRIVATEIP"] + '" Public_Addr="' + row["PUBLICIP"] + '" RACK_NO="' + row["RAC"] + '"/> \n'
    print(str.rstrip())

I want to insert the above output in to the below XML, in between <HostNames>:

Code:
                        <HostNames>
                                <Host name="node3" Pvt_IPADDR="47.47.47.197" Pub_IPADDR="10.47.47.197" RACK_NO="01"/>
                                <! --- The string I formatted , I want to put here" -->
                        </HostNames>


Note: <HostNames> tag can be any where in the config.xml and new "str" I want to put to the end of <HostNames> only.

Any help, really appreciable.

processcsv.py

PROCESSCSV.PY(1)					      Virtualization Support						  PROCESSCSV.PY(1)

NAME

       processcsv.py - process virt-top CSV files

SUMMARY

	virt-top --csv data.csv
	processcsv.py < data.csv

DESCRIPTION

       virt-top is a top(1)-like utility for showing stats of virtualized domains.

       processcsv.py is a simple Python script that post-processes the output of "virt-top --csv".

       It is used like this:

	virt-top --csv data.csv
	processcsv.py < data.csv

       The second command will overwrite the following files in the current directory:

       "global.csv"
	   This contains the global (host) statistics columns from the CSV file.

       "domainNN.csv" (multiple files)
	   For each libvirt domain ID NN, a file is created containing the per-domain statistics from the CSV file.
