html5lib in Pure Dart #
This is a pure Dart html5 parser. It's a port of html5lib from Python. Since it's 100% Dart you can use it safely from a script or server side app.
Eventually the parse tree API will be compatible with dart:html, so the same code will work on the client or the server.
Installation #
Add this to your pubspec.yaml (or create it):
dependencies:
html5lib:
git: https://github.com/dart-lang/html5lib.git
Then run the Pub Package Manager (comes with the Dart SDK):
pub install
Usage #
Parsing HTML is easy!
#import('package:html5lib/html5parser.dart', prefix: 'html5parser');
main() {
var document = html5parser.parse(
'<body>Hello world! <a href="www.html5rocks.com">HTML5 rocks!');
print(document.outerHTML);
}
You can pass a String, RandomAccessFile, or list of bytes to parse.
There's also parseFragment for parsing a document fragment, and HTMLParser
if you want more low level control. Finally, you can get the simple DOM tree
types like this:
#import('package:html5lib/treebuilders/simpletree.dart');
Updating #
You can upgrade the library with:
pub update
Disclaimer: the APIs are not finished. Updating may break your code. If that happens, you can check the commit log, to figure out what the change was.
Implementation Status #
Right now the tokenizer, html5parser, and simpletree are working.
These files from the html5lib directory still need to be ported:
ihatexml.pysanitizer.pyfilters/*serializer/*- most of
treebuilders/* treewalkers/*- most of
tests
Running Tests #
All tests should be passing.
# Make sure dependencies are installed
pub install
# Run command line tests
#export DART_SDK=path/to/dart/sdk
tests/run.sh
