python - xmltodict 抛出 ExpatError: no element found

Question

我想以编程方式将 XML 文件存储到数据库中，然后我将转换、分析和可视化数据。由于我比任何其他语言都更精通 python，所以我想将 XML 放入 MongoDB。所以我尝试首先使用 xmltodict 将 XML 转换为 JSON。我正在使用 colabs，但它不断抛出以下 ExpatError。

!pip install -q xlrd
!git clone https://github.com/martinblech/xmltodict.git
!pip install xmltodict

import xmltodict
import json
import pprint

 from google.colab import files
 files.upload() #here I upload customer.xml

with open('customer.xml') as fd:
doc = xmltodict.parse(fd.read())

pp = pprint.PrettyPrinter(indent=4)
pp.pprint(json.dumps(doc))

ExpatError                                Traceback (most recent call last)

      3 
      4 pp = pprint.PrettyPrinter(indent=4)
      5 pp.pprint(json.dumps(doc))

    328     return handler.item
