Python使用XML操作mapnik,实现复杂标注（Multi line text symbolizer）

test.py

import mapnik
stylesheet = 'world_style.xml'
image = 'world_style.png'
m = mapnik.Map(1200, 800)
mapnik.load_map(m, stylesheet)
m.zoom_all()
mapnik.render_to_file(m, image)
print "rendered image to '%s'" % image

world_style.xml

<Map background-color="#c4dff6" srs="+proj=merc +a=6378137 +b=6378137 +lat_ts=0.0 +lon_0=0.0 +x_0=0.0 +y_0=0.0 +k=1.0 +units=m +nadgrids=@null +wktext +no_defs +over" font-directory="./fonts" maximum-extent="-20037508.34,-20037508.34,20037508.34,20037508.34">

  <Style name="My Style">
    <Rule>
<!-- 复杂标注 -->
    <TextSymbolizer face-name="DejaVu Sans Bold" size="12" placement="point" dy="3" wrap-width="35" allow-overlap="0">
        [NAME]+'-'+[LEVEL]
        ++'
'<Format face-name="DejaVu Sans Oblique" size="9">'-'</Format>
        +'
'<Format face-name="DejaVu Sans Oblique" size="9">'('+[POSTAL]+')'+'-'+[LabelRank]</Format>
    </TextSymbolizer>

    </Rule>
  </Style>

  <Layer name="world" srs="+proj=longlat +ellps=WGS84 +datum=WGS84 +no_defs">
    <StyleName>My Style</StyleName>
    <Datasource>
      <Parameter name="type">shape</Parameter>
      <Parameter name="file">ne_110m_admin_0_countries.shp</Parameter>
    </Datasource>
  </Layer>
</Map>
