Fast HTML5 Parser with CSS selectors (based on new lexborisov's HTML5 parser lexbor). This is successor of myhtml and expected to be faster and use less memory. Usage is almost equal to myhtml.
Add this to your application's shard.yml:
dependencies:
lexbor:
github: kostya/lexborAnd run shards install (Installation require cmake, make sure it installed)
require "lexbor"
html = <<-HTML
<html>
<body>
<div id="t1" class="red">
<a href="/#">O_o</a>
</div>
<div id="t2"></div>
</body>
</html>
HTML
lexbor = Lexbor::Parser.new(html)
lexbor.nodes(:div).each do |node|
id = node["id"]?
if first_link = node.scope.nodes(:a).first?
href = first_link["href"]?
link_text = first_link.inner_text
puts "div with id #{id} have link [#{link_text}](#{href})"
else
puts "div with id #{id} have no links"
end
end
# Output:
# div with id t1 have link [O_o](/#)
# div with id t2 have no links
require "lexbor"
html = <<-HTML
<html>
<body>
<table id="t1">
<tr><td>Hello</td></tr>
</table>
<table id="t2">
<tr><td>123</td><td>other</td></tr>
<tr><td>foo</td><td>columns</td></tr>
<tr><td>bar</td><td>are</td></tr>
<tr><td>xyz</td><td>ignored</td></tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>
HTML
lexbor = Lexbor::Parser.new(html)
p lexbor.css("#t2 tr td:first-child").map(&.inner_text).to_a
# => ["123", "foo", "bar", "xyz"]
p lexbor.css("#t2 tr td:first-child").map(&.to_html).to_a
# => ["<td>123</td>", "<td>foo</td>", "<td>bar</td>", "<td>xyz</td>"]git clone https://github.com/kostya/lexbor.git
