How can I find the installed python-lxml version in a Linux system?
>>> import lxml
>>> lxml.__version__
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute '__version__'
>>> from pprint import pprint
>>> pprint(dir(lxml))
['__builtins__',
'__doc__',
'__file__',
'__name__',
'__package__',
'__path__',
'get_include',
'os']
>>>
Can't seem to find it
Answer
You can get the version by looking at etree:
>>> from lxml import etree
>>> etree.LXML_VERSION
(3, 0, -198, 0)
Other versions of interest can be: etree.LIBXML_VERSION, etree.LIBXML_COMPILED_VERSION, etree.LIBXSLT_VERSION and etree.LIBXSLT_COMPILED_VERSION.
