XML format



<datas>
<data> field1=abc, field2=cde,field3=fgh <data/>
<data> field1=abc, field2=cde,field3=fgh <data/>
</datas>


Bit more complicated, nested format



<datas>
<data> field1=abc, field2=[[field3=fgh, field4=fhg,field5=kjk]] <data/>
<data> field1=abc, field2=cde,field3=fgh <data/>
</datas>


Is there any tool can be use to parse this kind of format to retrieve value of the fields?

  • "Questions asking us to recommend or find a book, tool, software library, tutorial or other off-site resource are off-topic for Stack Overflow as they tend to attract opinionated answers and spam. Instead, describe the problem and what has been done so far to solve it." – Martijn Pieters

    That's just text data, and any structured format in text data is entirely outside of the XML standard. Just parse it like you would a Python string of the format.

  • See a similar question, parsing space-separated key-value pairs: Creating dictionary from space separated key=value string in Python

  • Also look at Extracting key value pairs from string with quotes, which handles quoted values, similar to your nested key-value pairs.

  • And lastly, Split "Nested" String By Parentheses into Nested List is probably interesting too.
