Concepts is clear but try removing the noise from the video. Good Job :)

Thank you for putting this video and the information together. I am a newbie to programming, I have worked a little bit with Javascript and NodeJS, trying to learn Python now, but for me, it is learning by trying to use code to solve a problem. Do you have any info on how to take it a step further and receive an HTTP Post with XML Data and converting it to JSON?

Also could you please share the Python File in your Github Repo?

I have a working Flask program that can accept the XML in the post and log it to console, but have not yet taken it any further. When I tried this with NodeJS, I was only getting about half of the XML file converted and reading online, it looks like Python is the better way to go, and since I am trying to learn Python, I figured I would give it a go. Basically, it would be taking an XML API Post and converting it to JSON. Thanks again

This is not working. I am getting the following every time I try to run it and I have tried several edits:

File "XMLToJSONtest.py", line 21
except Exception as e:
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

And if I comment out the except statement, I get the following errors when I try to run it:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "XMLToJSONtest.py", line 15, in <module>
tree = ET.parse (f)
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/xml/etree/ElementTree.py", line 1182, in parse
tree.parse(source, parser)
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/xml/etree/ElementTree.py", line 656, in parse
parser.feed(data)
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/xml/etree/ElementTree.py", line 1659, in feed
self._raiseerror(v)
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/xml/etree/ElementTree.py", line 1523, in _raiseerror
raise err
syntax error: line 1, column 0

And if I try to run it in Python3, I get the following errors:

python3 XMLToJSONtest.py
File "XMLToJSONtest.py", line 14
for f in glob.glob ("files/*.{}" .format (type)):
^
TabError: inconsistent use of tabs and spaces in indentation

Thanks a lot. Can you share the python file?
