I have the following code:
from lxml import etree
root = etree.fromstring(bytes(xml, encoding="utf-8"))
tree = etree.ElementTree(root)
mynode = "/myNamespace:Message/myNamespace:header/myNamespace:id"
for elem in root.iter():
if tree.getpath(elem) == mynode:
elem.remove
I however can't get the node to be removed. The xml format looks like so:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<abc:Message xmlns:abc="http://www.zyx.com/abc" schemaVersion="1.2">
<abc:header>
<abc:id>888</abc:id>
<abc:id1>888</abc:id1>
</abc:header>
<abc:body>
</abc:body>
</abc:Message>
Where am I go wrong with the remove?
