Find python lxml version

Question

How can I find the installed python-lxml version in a Linux system?

>>> import lxml
>>> lxml.__version__
Traceback (most recent call last):
  F         


        

Answer 1

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.
