*WHATWG HTML5 specification-compliant, fast and ready for production HTML parsing/serialization toolset for Node and io.js.*
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
I needed fast and ready for production HTML parser, which will parse HTML as a modern browser's parser.
|
||
|
|
Existing solutions were either too slow or their output was too inaccurate. So, this is how parse5 was born.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
**Included tools:**
|
||
|
|
* [Parser](#class-parser) - HTML to DOM-tree parser.
|
||
|
|
* [SimpleApiParser](#class-simpleapiparser) - [SAX](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simple_API_for_XML)-style parser for HTML.
|
||
|
|
* [Serializer](#class-serializer) - DOM-tree to HTML code serializer.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Install
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
$ npm install parse5
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Usage
|
||
|
|
```js
|
||
|
|
var Parser = require('parse5').Parser;
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
//Instantiate parser
|
||
|
|
var parser = new Parser();
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
//Then feed it with an HTML document
|
||
|
|
var document = parser.parse('<!DOCTYPE html><html><head></head><body>Hi there!</body></html>')
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
//Now let's parse HTML-snippet
|
||
|
|
var fragment = parser.parseFragment('<title>Parse5 is fucking awesome!</title><h1>42</h1>');
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Is it fast?
|
||
|
|
Check out [this benchmark](https://github.com/inikulin/node-html-parser-bench).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
Starting benchmark. Fasten your seatbelts...
|
||
|
|
html5 (https://github.com/aredridel/html5) x 0.18 ops/sec ±5.92% (5 runs sampled)
|
||
|
|
htmlparser (https://github.com/tautologistics/node-htmlparser/) x 3.83 ops/sec ±42.43% (14 runs sampled)
|
||
|
|
htmlparser2 (https://github.com/fb55/htmlparser2) x 4.05 ops/sec ±39.27% (15 runs sampled)
|
||
|
|
parse5 (https://github.com/inikulin/parse5) x 3.04 ops/sec ±51.81% (13 runs sampled)
|
||
|
|
Fastest is htmlparser2 (https://github.com/fb55/htmlparser2),parse5 (https://github.com/inikulin/parse5)
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
So, parse5 is as fast as simple specification incompatible parsers and ~15-times(!) faster than the current specification compatible parser available for the node.

### Enum: TreeAdapters
|
||
|
|
Provides built-in tree adapters which can be passed as an optional argument to the `Parser` and `Serializer` constructors.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
#### • TreeAdapters.default
|
||
|
|
Default tree format for parse5.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
#### • TreeAdapters.htmlparser2
|
||
|
|
Quite popular [htmlparser2](https://github.com/fb55/htmlparser2) tree format (e.g. used in [cheerio](https://github.com/MatthewMueller/cheerio) and [jsdom](https://github.com/tmpvar/jsdom)).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
---------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Class: Parser
|
||
|
|
Provides HTML parsing functionality.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
#### • Parser.ctor([treeAdapter, options])
|
||
|
|
Creates new reusable instance of the `Parser`. Optional `treeAdapter` argument specifies resulting tree format. If `treeAdapter` argument is not specified, `default` tree adapter will be used.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`options` object provides the parsing algorithm modifications:
|
||
|
|
##### options.decodeHtmlEntities
|
||
|
|
Decode HTML-entities like `&`, ` `, etc. Default: `true`. **Warning:** disabling this option may cause output which is not conform HTML5 specification.
|
||
|
|
##### options.locationInfo
|
||
|
|
Enables source code location information for the nodes. Default: `false`. When enabled, each node (except root node) has `__location` property, which contains `start` and `end` indices of the node in the source code. If element was implicitly created by the parser it's `__location` property will be `null`. In case the node is not an empty element, `__location` has two addition properties `startTag` and `endTag` which contain location information for individual tags in a fashion similar to `__location` property.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
*Example:*
|
||
|
|
```js
|
||
|
|
var parse5 = require('parse5');
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
//Instantiate new parser with default tree adapter
|
||
|
|
var parser1 = new parse5.Parser();
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
//Instantiate new parser with htmlparser2 tree adapter
|
||
|
|
var parser2 = new parse5.Parser(parse5.TreeAdapters.htmlparser2);
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
#### • Parser.parse(html)
|
||
|
|
Parses specified `html` string. Returns `document` node.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
*Example:*
|
||
|
|
```js
|
||
|
|
var document = parser.parse('<!DOCTYPE html><html><head></head><body>Hi there!</body></html>');
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
#### • Parser.parseFragment(htmlFragment, [contextElement])
|
||
|
|
Parses given `htmlFragment`. Returns `documentFragment` node. Optional `contextElement` argument specifies context in which given `htmlFragment` will be parsed (consider it as setting `contextElement.innerHTML` property). If `contextElement` argument is not specified then `<template>` element will be used as a context and fragment will be parsed in 'forgiving' manner.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
*Example:*
|
||
|
|
```js
|
||
|
|
var documentFragment = parser.parseFragment('<table></table>');
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
//Parse html fragment in context of the parsed <table> element
|
||
|
|
var trFragment = parser.parseFragment('<tr><td>Shake it, baby</td></tr>', documentFragment.childNodes[0]);
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||

|
|
### Class: SimpleApiParser
|
||
|
|
Provides [SAX](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simple_API_for_XML)-style HTML parsing functionality.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
#### • SimpleApiParser.ctor(handlers, [options])
|
||
|
|
Creates new reusable instance of the `SimpleApiParser`. `handlers` argument specifies object that contains parser's event handlers. Possible events and their signatures are shown in the example.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`options` object provides the parsing algorithm modifications:
|
||
|
|
##### options.decodeHtmlEntities
|
||
|
|
Decode HTML-entities like `&`, ` `, etc. Default: `true`. **Warning:** disabling this option may cause output which is not conform HTML5 specification.
|
||
|
|
##### options.locationInfo
|
||
|
|
Enables source code location information for the tokens. Default: `false`. When enabled, each node handler receives `location` object as it's last argument. `location` object contains `start` and `end` indices of the token in the source code.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
*Example:*
|
||
|
|
```js
|
||
|
|
var parse5 = require('parse5');
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
var parser = new parse5.SimpleApiParser({
|
||
|
|
doctype: function(name, publicId, systemId /*, [location] */) {
|
||
|
|
//Handle doctype here
|
||
|
|
},
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
startTag: function(tagName, attrs, selfClosing /*, [location] */) {
|
||
|
|
//Handle start tags here
|
||
|
|
},
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
endTag: function(tagName /*, [location] */) {
|
||
|
|
//Handle end tags here
|
||
|
|
},
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
text: function(text /*, [location] */) {
|
||
|
|
//Handle texts here
|
||
|
|
},
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
comment: function(text /*, [location] */) {
|
||
|
|
//Handle comments here
|
||
|
|
}
|
||
|
|
});
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
#### • SimpleApiParser.parse(html)
|
||
|
|
Raises parser events for the given `html`.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
*Example:*

||
|
|
```js
|
||
|
|
var parse5 = require('parse5');
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
var parser = new parse5.SimpleApiParser({
|
||
|
|
text: function(text) {
|
||
|
|
console.log(text);
|
||
|
|
}
|
||
|
|
});
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
parser.parse('<body>Yo!</body>');

|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|

||
|
|
### Class: Serializer
|
||
|
|
Provides tree-to-HTML serialization functionality.
|
||
|
|
**Note:** prior to v1.2.0 this class was called `TreeSerializer`. However, it's still accessible as `parse5.TreeSerializer` for backward compatibility.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
#### • Serializer.ctor([treeAdapter, options])
|
||
|
|
Creates new reusable instance of the `Serializer`. Optional `treeAdapter` argument specifies input tree format. If `treeAdapter` argument is not specified, `default` tree adapter will be used.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`options` object provides the serialization algorithm modifications:
|
||
|
|
##### options.encodeHtmlEntities
|
||
|
|
HTML-encode characters like `<`, `>`, `&`, etc. Default: `true`. **Warning:** disabling this option may cause output which is not conform HTML5 specification.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
*Example:*
|
||
|
|
```js
|
||
|
|
var parse5 = require('parse5');
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
//Instantiate new serializer with default tree adapter
|
||
|
|
var serializer1 = new parse5.Serializer();
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
//Instantiate new serializer with htmlparser2 tree adapter
|
||
|
|
var serializer2 = new parse5.Serializer(parse5.TreeAdapters.htmlparser2);
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
#### • Serializer.serialize(node)
|
||
|
|
Serializes the given `node`. Returns HTML string.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
*Example:*
|
||
|
|
```js
|
||
|
|
var document = parser.parse('<!DOCTYPE html><html><head></head><body>Hi there!</body></html>');
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
//Serialize document
|
||
|
|
var html = serializer.serialize(document);
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
//Serialize <body> element content
|
||
|
|
var bodyInnerHtml = serializer.serialize(document.childNodes[0].childNodes[1]);
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
---------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Testing
|
||
|
|
Test data is adopted from [html5lib project](https://github.com/html5lib). Parser is covered by more than 8000 test cases.
|
||
|
|
To run tests:
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
$ npm test
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Custom tree adapter
|
||
|
|
You can create a custom tree adapter so parse5 can work with your own DOM-tree implementation.
|
||
|
|
Just pass your adapter implementation to the parser's constructor as an argument:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```js
|
||
|
|
var Parser = require('parse5').Parser;
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
var myTreeAdapter = {
|
||
|
|
//Adapter methods...
|
||
|
|
};
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
//Instantiate parser
|
||
|
|
var parser = new Parser(myTreeAdapter);
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Sample implementation can be found [here](https://github.com/inikulin/parse5/blob/master/lib/tree_adapters/default.js).
|
||
|
|
The custom tree adapter should implement all methods exposed via `exports` in the sample implementation.
|
||
|
