An attoparsec based html parser. [![Build Status](https://secure.travis-ci.org/alpmestan/taggy.png?branch=master)](http://travis-ci.org/alpmestan/taggy)
|
|
|
|
Currently very WIP but already supports a fairly decent range of common websites. I haven't managed to find a website with which it chokes, using the current parser. The performance is quite promising.

Using `taggy`
|
|
=============
|
|
|
|
_taggy_ has a `taggyWith` function to work on HTML à la _tagsoup_.
|
|
|
|
``` haskell
|
|
taggyWith :: Bool -> LT.Text -> [Tag]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The `Bool` there just lets you specify whether you want to convert the special HTML entities to their corresponding unicode character. `True` means "yes convert them please". This function takes lazy `Text` as input.
|
|
|
|
Or you can use the raw `run` function, which returns a good old `Result` from _attoparsec_.
|
|
|
|
``` haskell
|
|
run :: Bool -> LT.Text -> AttoLT.Result [Tag]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
For example, if you want to read the html code from a file, and print one tag per line, you could do:
|
|
|
|
``` haskell
|
|
import Data.Attoparsec.Text.Lazy (eitherResult)
|
|
import qualified Data.Text.Lazy.IO as T
|
|
import Text.Taggy (run)
|
|
|
|
taggy :: FilePath -> IO ()
|
|
taggy fp = do
|
|
content <- T.readFile fp
|
|
either (\s -> putStrLn $ "couldn't parse: " ++ s)
|
|
(mapM_ print)
|
|
(eitherResult $ run True content)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
But _taggy_ also started providing support for DOM-syle documents. This is computed from the list of tags gained by using `taggyWith`.
|
|
|
|
If you fire up ghci with _taggy_ loaded:
|
|
|
|
``` bash
|
|
$ cabal repl # if working with a copy of this repo
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You can see this `domify` in action.
|
|
|
|
``` haskell
|
|
λ> :set -XOverloadedStrings
|
|
λ> head . domify . taggyWith False $ "<html><head></head><body>yo</body></html>"
|
|
NodeElement (Element {eltName = "html", eltAttrs = fromList [], eltChildren = [NodeElement (Element {eltName = "head", eltAttrs = fromList [], eltChildren = []}),NodeElement (Element {eltName = "body", eltAttrs = fromList [], eltChildren = [NodeContent "yo"]})]})
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Note that the `Text.Taggy.DOM` module contains a function
|
|
that composes `domify` and `taggyWith` for you: `parseDOM`.

Lenses for taggy
|
|
================
|
|
|
|
We (well, mostly Vikram Virma to be honest) have
|
|
put up a companion [taggy-lens](http://github.com/alpmestan/taggy-lens)
|
|
library.
