How can I retrieve the openSearch:totalResults attribute using feedparser?
I have a blogger API result which looks a bit like this (I have cut out some stuff to make it compact here)
<feed xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom' xmlns:openSearch='http://a9.com/-/spec/opensearch/1.1/' xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' gd:etag='W/"CUYMQ348fyp7ImA9WB9UFkU."'><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-blogID.postpostID..comments</id><updated>2007-12-14T17:46:22.077-08:00</updated><title>Comments on Lizzy's Diary: Quite disagreeable</title> <generator version='7.00' uri='http://www.blogger.com'>Blogger</generator><openSearch:totalResults>1</openSearch:totalResults><openSearch:startIndex>1</openSearch:startIndex>
Currently, I do something like
req = urllib.urlopen(url)urlContent = req.read() feed = feedparser.parse(urlContent)print feed.feed['openSearch_totalResults']
I get an error with the above code that the attribute does not exist. I have confirmed that the feed parser has the namespace by running
print feed['namespaces']
which gives me
{'': u'http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom', u'gd': u'http://schemas.google.com/g/2005', u'thr': u'http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0', u'openSearch': u'http://a9.com/-/spec/opensearchrss/1.0/'}
