Verschachteltes XML in Excel übertragen

Die Aufgabe war, die in xml als Subtasks ineinander verschachtelten Tasks einer GANT- Projektplanung einzulesen und diese Verschachtelung als Gruppierung in Excel zu übertragen. Hier die Python- Lösung:

readgant.py

#!/usr/bin/env python3
import sys
import openpyxl
from datetime import datetime
from xml.etree import ElementTree
 
def recursive_tasks(parent_task_list, level, allocations):
    result = []
    for task in parent_task_list.findall("task"):
        if task.get("id") not in allocations:
            allocs = []
        else:
            allocs = allocations[task.get("id")]
        result.append(
            {
                "level": level,
                "data": [
                    task.get("name"),
                    datetime. strptime(task.get("start"), '%Y-%m-%d'),
                    int(task.get("duration")),
                    int(task.get("complete")),
                    ", ".join(allocs),
                ],
            }
        )
        result = result + recursive_tasks(task, level + 1, allocations)
    return result
