Function Details

xpath()

Test xpath extension functions.
>>> root = SAMPLE_XML
>>> e = etree.XPathEvaluator(root, None, [extension])
>>> e.evaluate("stringTest('you')")
'Hello you'

>>> e.evaluate(u"stringTest('élan')")
u'Hello \xe9lan'

>>> e.evaluate("stringTest('you','there')")
Traceback (most recent call last):

...

>>> e.evaluate("booleanTest(true())")
False

>>> map(tag, e.evaluate("setTest(/body/tag)"))
['tag']

>>> map(tag, e.evaluate("setTest2(/body/*)"))
['tag', 'section']

>>> e.evaluate("argsTest1('a',1.5,true(),/body/tag)")

>>> map(tag, e.evaluate("argsTest2(/body/tag, /body/section)"))
['tag', 'section', 'tag', 'tag']

>>> e.evaluate("resultTypesTest()")
Traceback (most recent call last):
