delb is a library that provides an ergonomic model for XML encoded text documents (e.g. TEI-XML_) for the Python programming language. It fills a gap for the humanities-related field of software development towards the excellent (scientific) communities in the Python ecosystem.

For a more elaborated discussion see the Design chapter of the documentation.

.. _TEI-XML: https://tei-c.org

Features

  • Loads documents from various source types. This is customizable and extensible.
  • XML DOM types are represented by distinct classes.
  • A completely type-annotated API.
  • Consistent design regarding names and callables' signatures.
  • Shadows comments and processing instructions by default.
  • Querying with XPath and CSS expressions.

Development status

You're invited to submit tests that reflect desired use cases or are merely of theoretical nature. Of course, any kind of proposals for or implementations of improvements are welcome as well.

snakesist_ is an eXist-db client that uses delb to expose database resources.

Kurt Raschke noted in 2010_::

In a DOM-based implementation, it would be relatively easy […] But lxml doesn't use text nodes; instead it uses [text] and [tail] properties to hold text content.
