Mass Replace while dividing the value

[Caddy D]

I was looking at this: example
similar issue just a different format. My regex skills are a beginner at best, maybe someone can shed light on this for me

[Ekopalypse]

@Caddy-D

the post you linked to uses the xml module, isn’t this an option?

import xml.etree.ElementTree as ET

root = ET.XML(editor.getText())

for max_hp in root.findall(".//max_hp"):
    if max_hp is not None:
        value = float(max_hp.text.strip()) * 0.5
        max_hp.text = "{:.1f}".format(value)

editor.setText(ET.tostring(root))

Concerning your regular expression, you seem to look for <max_hp>"WHATEVER_NUMBER" whereas your example shows <max_hp>158</max_hp> (no quotes)

[Caddy D]

@Ekopalypse ty for your answer, there are different values for <max_hp> in that file. That’s why I look for “Whatever_number”.

[Caddy D]

@Ekopalypse running your script gives me this error in the Python Console:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Program Files\Notepad++\plugins\PythonScript\scripts\calculate3.py", line 4, in <module>
    root = ET.XML(editor.getText())
  File "C:\Program Files\Notepad++\plugins\PythonScript\lib\xml\etree\ElementTree.py", line 1310, in XML
    parser = XMLParser(target=TreeBuilder())
  File "C:\Program Files\Notepad++\plugins\PythonScript\lib\xml\etree\ElementTree.py", line 1482, in __init__
    "No module named expat; use SimpleXMLTreeBuilder instead"
ImportError: No module named expat; use SimpleXMLTreeBuilder instead

I have PythonScript 2.0.0.0 and XML Tools 3.1.1.13 installed
Any ideas?
Ty

[Ekopalypse]

@Caddy-D

how did you install the python script plugin?
Via plugin admin?

[Ekopalypse]

@Caddy-D

The error points to a missing expat library, which afaik is part of Python’s standard library.

I just tried it with a fresh portable and PS2.0.0, seems to work.

[Caddy D]

@Ekopalypse I download it from here: https://github.com/bruderstein/PythonScript/releases “PythonScript_2.0.0.0_x64.msi”
I will try to remove it and install it from the plugin admin

[Caddy D]

how can I remove the .0 after the value? thank you

[Ekopalypse]

@Caddy-D

replace max_hp.text = "{:.1f}".format(value) with max_hp.text = "{}".format(int(value))

[Caddy D]

@Ekopalypse ty, I reinstalled the Python Module by using Notepad++ Plugin Admin, and now I get this new error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Program Files\Notepad++\plugins\PythonScript\scripts\Tests\calculate3.py", line 4, in <module>

    raise err
xml.etree.ElementTree.ParseError: encoding specified in XML declaration is incorrect: line 1, column 30

[Ekopalypse]

@Caddy-D

looks like your xml encoding data is incorrect. Can you post the xml data? If not, only the first few lines?

[Caddy D]

@Ekopalypse it’s a huge file of 154 MB, I will post a bit of it

[Ekopalypse]

@Caddy-D

hmm, looks ok, can you use xml tools to verify if it really is correct?

[Ekopalypse]

@Ekopalypse

ooopppsss - PS is indeed complaining

[Ekopalypse]

@Caddy-D

ahh - not supported by PS2 and it removes the header
No, sorry, using xml module does not work in this case
Back to your regex solution. Gimme a sec.

[Caddy D]

@Ekopalypse I removed the DT stuff on top of the file and still get those errors

@Caddy-D

def regexmath(m):
    return "{}".format(int(float(m.group())*0.5))

editor.rereplace('(?<=<max_hp>)\d+\.*\d*(?=</max_hp>)', regexmath)

will replace the ones without surrounded by quotes.

editor.rereplace('(?<=<max_hp>")\d+\.*\d*(?="</max_hp>)', regexmath)

will replace if surrounded by quotes.

[Caddy D]

@Ekopalypse thank you very much kind sir, it works, have a great and amazing day
