+html5 parser in dart |
+==================== |
+ |
+This is a pure [Dart][dart] [html5 parser][html5parse]. It's a port of |
+[html5lib](https://github.com/html5lib/html5lib-python) 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][d_html], so |
+the same code will work on the client and the server. |
+ |
+(Formerly known as _html5lib_.) |
+ |
+Installation |
+------------ |
+ |
+Add this to your `pubspec.yaml` (or create it): |
+```yaml |
+dependencies: |
+ html: any |
+``` |
+Then run the [Pub Package Manager][pub] (comes with the Dart SDK): |
+ |
+ pub install |
+ |
+Usage |
+----- |
+ |
+Parsing HTML is easy! |
+```dart |
+import 'package:html/parser.dart' show parse; |
+import 'package:html/dom.dart'; |
+ |
+main() { |
+ var document = parse( |
+ '<body>Hello world! <a href="www.html5rocks.com">HTML5 rocks!'); |
+ print(document.outerHtml); |
+} |
+``` |
+ |
+You can pass a String or list of bytes to `parse`. |
+There's also `parseFragment` for parsing a document fragment, and `HtmlParser` |
+if you want more low level control. |
+ |
+Running Tests |
+------------- |
+ |
+```bash |
+./test/run.sh |
