The SAX API defines five kinds of handlers: content handlers, DTD handlers,
|
|
|
|
error handlers, entity resolvers and lexical handlers. Applications normally
|
|
|
|
only need to implement those interfaces whose events they are interested in;
|
|
|
|
they can implement the interfaces in a single object or in multiple objects.
|
|
|
|
Handler implementations should inherit from the base classes provided in the
|
|
|
|
module :mod:`xml.sax.handler`, so that all methods get default implementations.

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. class:: ContentHandler
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This is the main callback interface in SAX, and the one most important to
|
|
|
|
applications. The order of events in this interface mirrors the order of the
|
|
|
|
information in the document.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. class:: DTDHandler
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Handle DTD events.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This interface specifies only those DTD events required for basic parsing
|
|
|
|
(unparsed entities and attributes).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. class:: EntityResolver
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Basic interface for resolving entities. If you create an object implementing
|
|
|
|
this interface, then register the object with your Parser, the parser will call
|
|
|
|
the method in your object to resolve all external entities.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. class:: ErrorHandler
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Interface used by the parser to present error and warning messages to the
|
|
|
|
application. The methods of this object control whether errors are immediately
|
|
|
|
converted to exceptions or are handled in some other way.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
.. class:: LexicalHandler
|
|
|
|
|
2021-03-14 09:00:28 +08:00
|
|
|
Interface used by the parser to represent low frequency events which may not
|
2020-08-09 18:50:53 +08:00
|
|
|
be of interest to many applications.
|
|
|
|
|
2007-08-15 22:28:22 +08:00
|
|
|
In addition to these classes, :mod:`xml.sax.handler` provides symbolic constants
|
|
|
|
for the feature and property names.

ContentHandler Objects
|
|
|
|
----------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Users are expected to subclass :class:`ContentHandler` to support their
|
|
|
|
application. The following methods are called by the parser on the appropriate
|
|
|
|
events in the input document:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. method:: ContentHandler.setDocumentLocator(locator)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Called by the parser to give the application a locator for locating the origin
|
|
|
|
of document events.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
SAX parsers are strongly encouraged (though not absolutely required) to supply a
|
|
|
|
locator: if it does so, it must supply the locator to the application by
|
|
|
|
invoking this method before invoking any of the other methods in the
|
|
|
|
DocumentHandler interface.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The locator allows the application to determine the end position of any
|
|
|
|
document-related event, even if the parser is not reporting an error. Typically,
|
|
|
|
the application will use this information for reporting its own errors (such as
|
|
|
|
character content that does not match an application's business rules). The
|
|
|
|
information returned by the locator is probably not sufficient for use with a
|
|
|
|
search engine.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note that the locator will return correct information only during the invocation
|
|
|
|
of the events in this interface. The application should not attempt to use it at
|
|
|
|
any other time.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. method:: ContentHandler.startDocument()
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Receive notification of the beginning of a document.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The SAX parser will invoke this method only once, before any other methods in
|
|
|
|
this interface or in DTDHandler (except for :meth:`setDocumentLocator`).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. method:: ContentHandler.endDocument()
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Receive notification of the end of a document.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The SAX parser will invoke this method only once, and it will be the last method
|
|
|
|
invoked during the parse. The parser shall not invoke this method until it has
|
|
|
|
either abandoned parsing (because of an unrecoverable error) or reached the end
|
|
|
|
of input.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. method:: ContentHandler.startPrefixMapping(prefix, uri)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Begin the scope of a prefix-URI Namespace mapping.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The information from this event is not necessary for normal Namespace
|
|
|
|
processing: the SAX XML reader will automatically replace prefixes for element
|
|
|
|
and attribute names when the ``feature_namespaces`` feature is enabled (the
|
|
|
|
default).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
There are cases, however, when applications need to use prefixes in character
|
|
|
|
data or in attribute values, where they cannot safely be expanded automatically;
|
|
|
|
the :meth:`startPrefixMapping` and :meth:`endPrefixMapping` events supply the
|
|
|
|
information to the application to expand prefixes in those contexts itself, if
|
|
|
|
necessary.

Note that :meth:`startPrefixMapping` and :meth:`endPrefixMapping` events are not
|
|
|
|
guaranteed to be properly nested relative to each-other: all
|
|
|
|
:meth:`startPrefixMapping` events will occur before the corresponding
|
|
|
|
:meth:`startElement` event, and all :meth:`endPrefixMapping` events will occur
|
|
|
|
after the corresponding :meth:`endElement` event, but their order is not
|
|
|
|
guaranteed.

.. method:: ContentHandler.endPrefixMapping(prefix)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
End the scope of a prefix-URI mapping.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
See :meth:`startPrefixMapping` for details. This event will always occur after
|
|
|
|
the corresponding :meth:`endElement` event, but the order of
|
|
|
|
:meth:`endPrefixMapping` events is not otherwise guaranteed.

.. method:: ContentHandler.startElement(name, attrs)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Signals the start of an element in non-namespace mode.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The *name* parameter contains the raw XML 1.0 name of the element type as a
|
2013-08-29 15:28:44 +08:00
|
|
|
string and the *attrs* parameter holds an object of the
|
|
|
|
:class:`~xml.sax.xmlreader.Attributes`
|
2007-08-15 22:28:22 +08:00
|
|
|
interface (see :ref:`attributes-objects`) containing the attributes of
|
|
|
|
the element. The object passed as *attrs* may be re-used by the parser; holding
|
|
|
|
on to a reference to it is not a reliable way to keep a copy of the attributes.
|
|
|
|
To keep a copy of the attributes, use the :meth:`copy` method of the *attrs*
|
|
|
|
object.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. method:: ContentHandler.endElement(name)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Signals the end of an element in non-namespace mode.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The *name* parameter contains the name of the element type, just as with the
|
|
|
|
:meth:`startElement` event.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. method:: ContentHandler.startElementNS(name, qname, attrs)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Signals the start of an element in namespace mode.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The *name* parameter contains the name of the element type as a ``(uri,
|
|
|
|
localname)`` tuple, the *qname* parameter contains the raw XML 1.0 name used in
|
|
|
|
the source document, and the *attrs* parameter holds an instance of the
|
2013-08-29 15:28:44 +08:00
|
|
|
:class:`~xml.sax.xmlreader.AttributesNS` interface (see
|
|
|
|
:ref:`attributes-ns-objects`)
|
2007-08-15 22:28:22 +08:00
|
|
|
containing the attributes of the element. If no namespace is associated with
|
|
|
|
the element, the *uri* component of *name* will be ``None``. The object passed
|
|
|
|
as *attrs* may be re-used by the parser; holding on to a reference to it is not
|
|
|
|
a reliable way to keep a copy of the attributes. To keep a copy of the
|
|
|
|
attributes, use the :meth:`copy` method of the *attrs* object.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Parsers may set the *qname* parameter to ``None``, unless the
|
|
|
|
``feature_namespace_prefixes`` feature is activated.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. method:: ContentHandler.endElementNS(name, qname)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Signals the end of an element in namespace mode.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The *name* parameter contains the name of the element type, just as with the
|
|
|
|
:meth:`startElementNS` method, likewise the *qname* parameter.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. method:: ContentHandler.characters(content)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Receive notification of character data.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Parser will call this method to report each chunk of character data. SAX
|
|
|
|
parsers may return all contiguous character data in a single chunk, or they may
|
|
|
|
split it into several chunks; however, all of the characters in any single event
|
|
|
|
must come from the same external entity so that the Locator provides useful
|
|
|

*content* may be a string or bytes instance; the ``expat`` reader module
|
|
|
|
always produces strings.

.. note::
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The earlier SAX 1 interface provided by the Python XML Special Interest Group
|
|
|
|
used a more Java-like interface for this method. Since most parsers used from
|
|
|
|
Python did not take advantage of the older interface, the simpler signature was
|
|
|
|
chosen to replace it. To convert old code to the new interface, use *content*
|
|
|
|
instead of slicing content with the old *offset* and *length* parameters.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. method:: ContentHandler.ignorableWhitespace(whitespace)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Receive notification of ignorable whitespace in element content.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Validating Parsers must use this method to report each chunk of ignorable
|
|
|
|
whitespace (see the W3C XML 1.0 recommendation, section 2.10): non-validating
|
|
|
|
parsers may also use this method if they are capable of parsing and using
|
|
|
|
content models.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
SAX parsers may return all contiguous whitespace in a single chunk, or they may
|
|
|
|
split it into several chunks; however, all of the characters in any single event
|
|
|
|
must come from the same external entity, so that the Locator provides useful
|
|
|
|
information.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. method:: ContentHandler.processingInstruction(target, data)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Receive notification of a processing instruction.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Parser will invoke this method once for each processing instruction found:
|
|
|
|
note that processing instructions may occur before or after the main document
|
|
|
|
element.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A SAX parser should never report an XML declaration (XML 1.0, section 2.8) or a
|
|
|
|
text declaration (XML 1.0, section 4.3.1) using this method.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. method:: ContentHandler.skippedEntity(name)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Receive notification of a skipped entity.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Parser will invoke this method once for each entity skipped. Non-validating
|
|
|
|
processors may skip entities if they have not seen the declarations (because,
|
|
|
|
for example, the entity was declared in an external DTD subset). All processors
|
|
|
|
may skip external entities, depending on the values of the
|
|
|
|
``feature_external_ges`` and the ``feature_external_pes`` properties.

|
Resolve the system identifier of an entity and return either the system
|
|
|
|
identifier to read from as a string, or an InputSource to read from. The default
|
|
|
|
implementation returns *systemId*.

ErrorHandler Objects
|
|
|
|
--------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Objects with this interface are used to receive error and warning information
|
2013-08-29 15:28:44 +08:00
|
|
|
from the :class:`~xml.sax.xmlreader.XMLReader`. If you create an object that
|
|
|
|
implements this interface, then register the object with your
|
|
|
|
:class:`~xml.sax.xmlreader.XMLReader`, the parser
|
2007-08-15 22:28:22 +08:00
|
|
|
will call the methods in your object to report all warnings and errors. There
|
|
|
|
are three levels of errors available: warnings, (possibly) recoverable errors,
|
|
|
|
and unrecoverable errors. All methods take a :exc:`SAXParseException` as the
|
|
|
|
only parameter. Errors and warnings may be converted to an exception by raising
|
|
|
|
the passed-in exception object.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. method:: ErrorHandler.error(exception)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Called when the parser encounters a recoverable error. If this method does not
|
|
|
|
raise an exception, parsing may continue, but further document information
|
|
|
|
should not be expected by the application. Allowing the parser to continue may
|
|
|
|
allow additional errors to be discovered in the input document.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. method:: ErrorHandler.fatalError(exception)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Called when the parser encounters an error it cannot recover from; parsing is
|
|
|
|
expected to terminate when this method returns.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. method:: ErrorHandler.warning(exception)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Called when the parser presents minor warning information to the application.
|
|
|
|
Parsing is expected to continue when this method returns, and document
|
|
|
|
information will continue to be passed to the application. Raising an exception
|
|
|
|
in this method will cause parsing to end.

LexicalHandler Objects
|
|
|
|
----------------------
|
|
|
|
Optional SAX2 handler for lexical events.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This handler is used to obtain lexical information about an XML
|
|
|
|
document. Lexical information includes information describing the
|
|
|
|
document encoding used and XML comments embedded in the document, as
|
|
|
|
well as section boundaries for the DTD and for any CDATA sections.
|
|
|
|
The lexical handlers are used in the same manner as content handlers.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Set the LexicalHandler of an XMLReader by using the setProperty method
|
|
|
|
with the property identifier
|
|
|
|
``'http://xml.org/sax/properties/lexical-handler'``.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. method:: LexicalHandler.comment(content)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Reports a comment anywhere in the document (including the DTD and
|
|
|
|
outside the document element).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. method:: LexicalHandler.startDTD(name, public_id, system_id)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Reports the start of the DTD declarations if the document has an
|
|
|
|
associated DTD.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. method:: LexicalHandler.endDTD()
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Reports the end of DTD declaration.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. method:: LexicalHandler.startCDATA()
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Reports the start of a CDATA marked section.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The contents of the CDATA marked section will be reported through
|
|
|
|
the characters handler.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. method:: LexicalHandler.endCDATA()
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Reports the end of a CDATA marked section.
