I am starting to study some web technologies to integrate content, markup, layout, styling

  • 0

I am starting to study some web technologies to integrate content, markup, layout, styling and behaviors of stuff for personal use (NOT web developing for now) and am amazed with the power of JQuery selectors and functions.

I have heard that there are some ways to use javascript “outside” a browser, to do some DOM selection, manipulation, etc. I wonder if JQuery could be used that way too.

So, what I would like to do is:

  • Using some programming/scripting language (I use Python), access a XML file and parse its DOM;
  • Programmatically manipulate and modify the DOM with javascript/jquery selectors and functions;
  • Save the results to (possibly another) XML file.

    If you like jQuery syntax, check out pyQuery:

    from pyquery import PyQuery

_ = PyQuery('<body><p></p></body>')
_("p").text("hello").css({'color': 'red'})
print _.html()


>>> <p style="color: red">hello</p>
