question using pp.parese_medline

[scm1210]

Hi team,

I am trying to parse some medline files I have using the demo'd code on the repo. However, when I run the below code:

import os
import pubmed_parser as pp
import pandas as pd

parsed_articles = pp.parse_medline_xml('/....Dropbox/Collected Texts/test_files/pubmed23n1138.xml',
year_info_only=True,
nlm_category=False,
author_list=False)

I get the following error: Error: it was not able to read a path, a file-like object, or a string as an XML

I've checked that my file exists, etc. but still not too sure what the issue could be. Any advice is helpful, thank you!

Can you open the xml file in a normal text editor? I had these errors frequently, but discovered it was due to broken downloads.

PS: You format code with three backticks (```) on separate lines before and after the code.

Issue seems to be solved.
