How to serialize XML document in python using xml.dom library

I'd like to know how I can serialize an XML document in 开发者_开发知识库python specifically using the xml.dom library.

You mean something like:

xml.dom.ext.PrettyPrint(doc, open(name, "w"))

where doc is the XML document and name is the name of the file?

Or, if you have xml.dom.minidom, how about the xml.dom.minidom.writexml function?
