"""Parse the given XML input and convert it into a dictionary.
`xml_input` can either be a `string` or a file-like object.
If `xml_attribs` is `True`, element attributes are put in the dictionary
among regular child elements, using `@` as a prefix to avoid collisions. If
set to `False`, they are just ignored.
Simple example::
>>> doc = xmltodict.parse(\"\"\"
...
... 1
... 2
...
... \"\"\")
>>> doc['a']['@prop']
u'x'
>>> doc['a']['b']
[u'1', u'2']
If `item_depth` is `0`, the function returns a dictionary for the root
element (default behavior). Otherwise, it calls `item_callback` every time
an item at the specified depth is found and returns `None` in the end
(streaming mode).
The callback function receives two parameters: the `path` from the document
root to the item (name-attribs pairs), and the `item` (dict). If the
callback's return value is false-ish, parsing will be stopped with the
:class:`ParsingInterrupted` exception.
Streaming example::
>>> def handle(path, item):
... print 'path:%s item:%s' % (path, item)
... return True
...
>>> xmltodict.parse(\"\"\"
...
... 1
... 2
... \"\"\", item_depth=2, item_callback=handle)
