help please with REXML
in [Ruby]
|
From: Ben Morse on 16 Jul 2010 01:23 hello, I am trying to make a simple ruby script that can look at a set of xml files, and make a set of folders based on the content of the XML files. As it stands I can import the data with REXML, but when I run the script I get a set of errors(I posted below the code) talking about TypeError. Take a look below and let me know what you think.. ________________________CODE_________________________ #!/usr/bin/ruby require 'rexml/document' include REXML jnumber_file = File.new("XML_EXPORT/export_j_number.xml") jname_file = File.new("XML_EXPORT/export_j_name.xml") cnumber_file = File.new("XML_EXPORT/export_cnumber.xml") cname_file = File.new("XML_EXPORT/export_c_name.xml") jnumber_file = Document.new(jnumber_file) jname_file = Document.new(jname_file) cnumber_file = Document.new(cnumber_file) cname_file = Document.new(cname_file) puts jnumber_file puts jname_file puts cnumbe_file puts cname_file class Job attr_accessor :client_num, :client_name, :job_num, :job_name; def generate_files() # print "Client Num is " + @client_num.to_s + "\n" client_dir = @client_num.to_s + "_" + @client_name job_dir = @job_num.to_s + "_" + @job_name if(! File.exist?(client_dir)) Dir.mkdir(client_dir); end Dir.mkdir(client_dir+"/"+job_dir); Dir.mkdir(client_dir+"/"+job_dir+"/parent"); Dir.mkdir(client_dir+"/"+job_dir+"/parent/old"); Dir.mkdir(client_dir+"/"+job_dir+"/parent/current"); Dir.mkdir(client_dir+"/"+job_dir+"/children"); Dir.mkdir(client_dir+"/"+job_dir+"/children/old"); Dir.mkdir(client_dir+"/"+job_dir+"/children/current"); end end j = Job.new j.client_name = cname j.client_num = cnumberfile j.job_name = cname j.job_num = jname_file j.generate_files() ____________________________END CODE_________________________ ____________________________ERROE____________________________ director_v3.rb:28:in `+': can't convert REXML::Document into String (TypeError) from director_v4.rb:28:in `generate_files' from director_v4.rb:50 ____________________________END ERROR________________________ Anything yall can see to help would be awsome!

From: Mark T on 16 Jul 2010 02:08 If you can afford the time to install Nokogiri, this might be a good direction to take. It has better mindshare at the moment. Anyways, could you re-run with the formatting below? (One typo found). MarkT #================================= require 'rexml/document' include REXML class Job attr_accessor :client_num, :client_name, :job_num, :job_name def generate_files() client_dir = @client_num.to_s + "_" + @client_name job_dir = @job_num.to_s + "_" + @job_name unless File.exist?(client_dir) then Dir.mkdir(client_dir) end Dir.mkdir(client_dir+"/"+job_dir) Dir.mkdir(client_dir+"/"+job_dir+"/parent") Dir.mkdir(client_dir+"/"+job_dir+"/parent/old") Dir.mkdir(client_dir+"/"+job_dir+"/parent/current") Dir.mkdir(client_dir+"/"+job_dir+"/children") Dir.mkdir(client_dir+"/"+job_dir+"/children/old") Dir.mkdir(client_dir+"/"+job_dir+"/children/current") end end def declareFiles jnumber_file = File.new("XML_EXPORT/export_j_number.xml") jname_file = File.new("XML_EXPORT/export_j_name.xml") cnumber_file = File.new("XML_EXPORT/export_cnumber.xml") cname_file = File.new("XML_EXPORT/export_c_name.xml") jnumber_file = Document.new(jnumber_file) jname_file = Document.new(jname_file) cnumber_file = Document.new(cnumber_file) cname_file = Document.new(cname_file) end j = Job.new j.client_name = cname j.client_num = cnumberfile j.job_name = cname j.job_num = jname_file j.declareFiles puts jnumber_file, jname_file, cnumber_file, cname_file j.generate_files() #=================================
