Re: [Jython-users] Jython with dependencies on lxml

[Stefan R. <Ste...@gm...>]

The website link you posted states the folowing:
lxml - A Pythonic binding for the C libraries libxml2 and libxslt.
 

This makes it difficult to run in Jython. You can try the following:
 
- use JyNI (www.jyni.org)
Since it's still alpha and I never tested with lxml, there's a great chance it will fail.
 
- Jython has some built-in xml capabilities: http://www.jython.org/docs/library/markup.html#structured-markup-processing-tools
Maybe you can use these to replace the dependency on lxml.
 
- You can fork lxml and try to fix its dependencies using Java bindings of libxml2 and libxslt.
https://github.com/rath/libxml2-java
http://xmlsoft.org/XSLT/python.html mentions Java bindings called LibxmlJ as part of GNU classpath.
If you get this working, please consider to make your solution available on github or somewhere.
 
- Use an embedded solution via JPY http://jpy.readthedocs.org/en/latest/intro.html or JEP https://github.com/mrj0/jep

Betreff: [Jython-users] Jython with dependencies on lxml

I am currently looking into using Jython and/or Python for an information federation project. One of the information sources (TAXII) has a Python library dependent on lxml (http://libtaxii.readthedocs.org/en/latest/installation.html[http://libtaxii.readthedocs.org/en/latest/installation.html]) . Others, including my integration models have Java APIs (Eclipse EMF) that are accessible from Jython.
 
Are the dependent libraries (libxml2, linxslt1, zlibg) available in Jython? List I saw was some mention of LXML 4 years ago but nothing recent.
Alternatively, are there any Python libraries for Eclipse EMF or OMG-XMI (The file format used for the models)?
 
Thanks in advance!
