#!/usr/bin/env perl =head1 NAME xml-structure-hist =head1 SYNOPSIS xml-structure-hist [-r] [-b] file.xml -r : have the program supply a root node tag -b : show break-downs of element paths (def: raw element counts) =head1 DESCRIPTION For any given xml file, this tool will use a standard xml parser to tabulate the structure of the tags and print (on STDOUT) a tally of how many times each distinct structural element occurs in the file. Use the "-r" option if the input file does not include its own "root" xml tag (e.g. this is typical of Gigaword-style text files, which are just a concatenation of "" elements, with no initial "root" tag containing all the DOCs). For example, given an xml file with these contents: ...... ...... ...... ... ... the default output would be: 1 .root_node 2 .root_node.level1 4 .root_node.level1.level2_a 5 .root_node.level1.level2_a.level3 1 .root_node.level1.level2_a.level3.level4 1 .root_node.level1.level2_b 1 .root_node.level1.level2_b.level3 With the "-b" option, the output would be: 1 .root_node.level1.level2_a 4 .root_node.level1.level2_a.level3 1 .root_node.level1.level2_a.level3.level4 1 .root_node.level1.level2_b.level3 If the example lacked the "root_node" tags, you would use the "-r" option, and the quantities reported for the "level*" tags would be the same as above. =head1 AUTHOR David Graff =cut use strict; use XML::Parser; my $Usage = "$0 [-r] [-b] file.xml\n"; my ( $add_root, $discrete_count ); while ( @ARGV > 1 and $ARGV[0] =~ /-([rb])/ ) { if ( $1 eq 'r' ) { $add_root = shift; } else { $discrete_count = shift; } } die $Usage unless ( @ARGV == 1 and -f $ARGV[0] ); my $counter = 0; my %embedding; my $key = ''; my %hist; my $p = XML::Parser->new( Handlers => { Start => sub{ my $newkey = "$key.$_[1]"; if ( $key and $discrete_count and !exists( $embedding{$key} )) { $embedding{$key}++; $hist{$key}--; $counter++; } $key = $newkey; $hist{$key}++; }, End => sub{ delete $embedding{$key} if ( $discrete_count ); $key =~ s/\.$_[1]$// }, } ); if ( ! $add_root ) { $p->parsefile( $ARGV[0] ); } else { my $xmlstr = "\n"; open( X, '<:utf8', $ARGV[0] ) or die "Unable to read $ARGV[0]: $!\n"; { $/ = undef; $xmlstr .= ; } close X; $xmlstr .= ""; $p->parse( $xmlstr ); } for my $k ( sort keys %hist ) { $_ = $k; if ( $add_root ) { s/.STRUCT_HIST_ROOT_$$//; next unless /\S/; } print "$hist{$k}\t$_\n" unless ( $discrete_count and $hist{$k} <= 0 ); }
