# Python XML-Microparser Module
[](https://badge.fury.io/py/xmlmicroparser)
The Python **xmlmicroparser** module is a small OOP based XML Parser without DTD / XSLT / SAX functionality.
## 1. Documentation
Documentation including examples can be found at either ./doc or [https://pythondocs.webcodex.de/xml-microparser](https://pythondocs.webcodex.de/xml-microparser).
## 2. Installation
```bash
# install via pip
pip install xmlmicroparser
```
Or download the current Release Zip / Tarball @ [Release 1.0rc1](https://github.com/clauspruefer/python-xml-microparser/releases/tag/1.0rc1) and continue with section **2.2**.
>[!NOTE]
> Since Python 3.3 (PEP 405) Virtual Environments are proposed.
```bash
# setup virtual-env
python3 -m venv .xml-microparser
# activate virtual-env
source .xml-microparser/bin/activate
# upgrade pip
python3 -m pip install --upgrade pip
# install xmlmicroparser module
pip3 install xmlmicroparser
# install dependencies
pip3 install pytest pytest-pep8
```
## 2.1. Dependencies
You need Python3 setuptools to build the package manually. Pytest / PEP-8 packages are required to run tests.
```bash
# install base dependencies
apt-get install python3-setuptools python3-pip python3-pytest python3-pytest-pep8
```
>[!IMPORTANT]
> The following section describes how to install the XML-Microparser package globally. Newer PIP Package Manager Versions prohibit
> this by default. It is possible to override by providing the `--break-system-packages` flag.
## 2.2. Non-Restrictive PIP Install
Do this for a pip system where `--break-system-packages` is not needed.
```bash
# install local pip
sudo pip3 install ./xmlmicroparser-1.0rc1.tar.gz
```
## 2.3. Restrictive PIP Install
Do this for a pip system where `--break-system-packages` is needed.
```bash
# install local pip
sudo pip3 install ./xmlmicroparser-1.0rc1.tar.gz --break-system-packages
```
## 3. Build Manually
Clone git repository and change dir inside.
```bash
# clone and cd into repo
git clone https://github.com/clauspruefer/python-xml-microparser.git
cd python-xml-microparser
```
## 3.1. Build As Non-Root-User
Build python-package with setup-tools (as non root user). This will generate the installable tarball
into `./dist/xmlmicroparser-1.0rc1.tar.gz`.
```bash
# build source distribution
python3 setup.py sdist
```
## 3.2. Install As Root-User
```bash
# install via pip
sudo pip3 install ./dist/xmlmicroparser-1.0rc1.tar.gz --break-system-packages
```
## 4. Run Tests / Pytest
```bash
# run pytest
pytest
```
## 5. Example Usage / Boost::Python
Using the XML-Microparser Module with Boost Python C++ https://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_86_0/libs/python/doc/html/index.html
makes XML configuration handling in C++ projects easy.
