As mentioned in the README, there are a couple other libraries that do similar or the same thing, including generic TEI parsing libraries which are not specific to GROBID. At scholar.archive.org we had a need to extract header and citation metadata in a structured but non-XML format (eg, JSON or python objects), so we wrote this. It uses only the Python 3 standard library, includes type annotations, and has decent test coverage. It supports both older ~v0.5 era GROBID documents as well as more recent output. We have run the output of tens of millions of PDFs through GROBID and this code.
Wanted to share this new python library for parsing metadata out of GROBID "flavor" TEI-XML:
