I have an XML file looking like this (much more entries in practice) :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>

What I would like to extract is the last part informations "NumEnr", "NumPol", "PMVie" (if it exists). I have been helped to build the following code :
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
import csv
libname = "C:/Users/a61787/Documents/"
with open(libname+'Test.xml') as f_input:
soup = BeautifulSoup(f_input, "lxml")
with open(libname+'b.csv', 'w', newline='', encoding='utf-8') as f_output:
csv_output = csv.writer(f_output)
csv_output.writerow(['Numenr', 'NumPol', 'PMVie'])
for tns in soup.find_all("tns:polrntvie"):
csv_output.writerow(tns.find(entry).text for entry in ['tns:numenr', 'tns:numpol', 'tns:pmvie'])
It works fine where all the items are there but gives me the following error where there are some missing items => AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'text'.
So, I'm looking for a way to test if all desired items are missing or not. If missing, I would like to have an empty string in the csv file for this column.
Not familiar with the xml files. Any help would be appreciated.
