Re: [NTG-context] Need help processing XML in luacode

Hello Massi, thanks for you help.

In your tex file, try this:

\startluacode settings = {} docstruktur = {} doclistfile = "doclist.xml"

local striplines = utilities.strings.striplines

cropstring = function(s) -- return striplines(s, "prune and collapse") return striplines(s) end

Well, with this definition I can actually inline that.

local xmltext = xml.text

doc = xml.load(doclistfile, settings)

for v in xml.collected(doc,"/doclist/psdoc/") do -- print (v) -- print (xml.text(v,"/docnr")) local docnr = cropstring(xml.text(v,"/docnr")) print (docnr) local docname = cropstring(xmltext(v,"/docname")) -- es kann mehrere DOCAN geben! local docan = (cropstring(xmltext(v,"/docan"))) local docverantwortlich = (cropstring(xmltext(v,"/docverantwortlich")))

docstruktur[docnr]={ docname = docname, docan = docan, docverantwortlich = docverantwortlich }

Great, that is even shorter.

end \stopluacode

I’m cleaning up my backend code to make it more Lua like. Greetings Axel
