This is a work in progress…
pip install toolslmtoolslm has some helpers to make it easier to generate XML context from
files, for instance folder2ctx:
print(folder2ctx('samples', prefix=False, file_glob='*.py'))<documents>
<document index="1">
<source>
samples/sample_core.py
</source>
<document_content>
import inspect
empty = inspect.Parameter.empty
models = 'claude-3-opus-20240229','claude-3-sonnet-20240229','claude-3-haiku-20240307'
</document_content>
</document>
</documents>
Many language models work well with XML inputs, but XML can be a bit clunky to work with manually. Therefore, toolslm includes a couple of more streamlined approaches for XML generation.
An XML node contains a tag, optional children, and optional attributes.
xt creates a tuple of these three things, which we will use to general
XML shortly. Attributes are passed as kwargs; since these might conflict
with reserved words in Python, you can optionally add a _ prefix and
it’ll be stripped off.
xt('x-custom', ['hi'], _class='bar')('x-custom', ['hi'], {'class': 'bar'})
Claudette has functions defined for some common HTML elements to create
xt tuples more easily, including these:
from toolslm.xml import div,img,h1,h2,p,hr,htmla = html([
p('This is a paragraph'),
hr(),
img(src='http://example.prg'),
div([
h1('This is a header'),
h2('This is a sub-header', style='k:v'),
], _class='foo')
])
a('html',
[('p', 'This is a paragraph', {}),
('hr', None, {}),
('img', None, {'src': 'http://example.prg'}),
('div',
[('h1', 'This is a header', {}),
('h2', 'This is a sub-header', {'style': 'k:v'})],
{'class': 'foo'})],
{})
To convert a tuple data structure created with xt and friends into
XML, use to_xml, adding the hl parameter to optionally add syntax
highlighting:
to_xml(a, hl=True)<html>
<p>This is a paragraph</p>
<hr />
<img src="http://example.prg" />
<div class="foo">
<h1>This is a header</h1>
<h2 style="k:v">This is a sub-header</h2>
</div>
</html>JSON doesn’t map as nicely to XML as the xt data structure, but for
simple XML trees it can be convenient. The json_to_xml function
handles that conversion:
a = dict(surname='Howard', firstnames=['Jeremy','Peter'],
address=dict(state='Queensland',country='Australia'))
print(json_to_xml(a, 'person'))<person>
<surname>Howard</surname>
<firstnames>
<item>Jeremy</item>
<item>Peter</item>
</firstnames>
<address>
<state>Queensland</state>
<country>Australia</country>
</address>
</person>

generation functionality.
