I would like to add information to CDATA in an Xml Tree. Turns out I am not the only one: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/174890/how-to-output-cdata-using-elementtree Can the library be extended to also support CDATA (similar to Comment)? Saves a lot of hacking... |

PR welcome. This is how lxml implements it: https://lxml.de/api.html#cdata Tests are here: https://github.com/lxml/lxml/blob/1a2db33aa8b9619c1caf407167567d5cca0b9019/src/lxml/tests/test_etree.py#L1692-L1749 I guess it won't look perfectly the same in ElementTree in the end, but it might be enough to implement a string wrapper class (or even str subclass?), and then maybe special-case it in the serialiser (probably needed for the escaping). However, anything that relieves the serialiser from doing special work for this exceptional case might be a good idea. |
