getText method
Returns the text of an element.
Same like bs4element.string
.
- separator
- Strings will be concatenated using this separator.
- strip
If true
, strings will be stripped before being concatenated
(strips whitespace from the beginning and end of each bit of text).
false
by default.
Implementation
@override
String getText({String separator = '', bool strip = false}) {
if (separator.isEmpty && !strip) {
return element?.text ?? _bs4.text;
}
final texts = _bs4.nextParsedAll
.where((node) => node.nodeType == Node.TEXT_NODE)
.map((textNode) => strip ? textNode.data.trim() : textNode.data)
.toList()
..removeWhere((e) => e.isEmpty);
return texts.join(separator);
}
