ksconf xml-format¶
See also
Pre-commit hooks
See Pre-commit hooks for more information about how the xml-format
command can be
integrated in your git workflow.
NOTE: While it may work on other XML files, it hasn’t been tested for other files, and therefore is not recommended as a general-purpose XML formatter. Specific awareness of various Simple XML tags is baked into this product.
Note
This command requires the external lxml
Python module.
This package was specifically selected (over the built-in ‘xml.etree’ interface) because it (1) supports round-trip preservation of CDATA blocks, and (2) already ships with Splunk’s embedded Python.
This is an optional requirement, unless you want to use the xml-format
command.
As of v0.12.0, this is not longer installed by the ksconf
package.
However, if you are using pre-commit hooks from the `ksconf-pre-commit repo`_ for the ksconf-xml-format
hook.
