# Fast HTML Parser [![NPM version]https://badge.fury.io/js/node-html-parser.png]http://badge.fury.io/js/node-html-parser [![Build Status]https://img.shields.io/endpoint.svg?url=https%3A%2F%2Factions-badge.atrox.dev%2Ftaoqf%2Fnode-html-parser%2Fbadge%3Fref%3Dmain&style=flat]https://actions-badge.atrox.dev/taoqf/node-html-parser/goto?ref=main

Fast HTML Parser is a _very fast_ HTML parser. Which will generate a simplified
DOM tree, with element query support.

Per the design, it intends to parse massive HTML files in lowest price, thus the
performance is the top priority.  For this reason, some malformatted HTML may not
be able to parse correctly, but most usual errors are covered (eg. HTML4 style
no closing `<td>` etc).

## Install

```shell
cargo add node-html-parser
```

> Note: when using Fast HTML Parser in a Typescript project the minimum Typescript version supported is `^4.1.2`.

## Performance

-- 2022-08-10

```shell
html-parser     :24.1595 ms/file ± 18.7667
htmljs-parser   :4.72064 ms/file ± 5.67689
html-dom-parser :2.18055 ms/file ± 2.96136

node-html-parser:2.04288 ms/file ± 1.25203
node-html-parser (last release):2.00527 ms/file ± 1.21317
```

Tested with [htmlparser-benchmark](https://github.com/AndreasMadsen/htmlparser-benchmark).

## Usage

```ts
import { parse } from 'node-html-parser';

const root = parse('<ul id="list"><li>Hello World</li></ul>');

console.log(root.firstChild.structure);
// ul#list
//   li
//     #text

console.log(root.querySelector('#list'));
// { tagName: 'ul',
//   rawAttrs: 'id="list"',
//   childNodes:
//    [ { tagName: 'li',
//        rawAttrs: '',
//        childNodes: [Object],
//        classNames: [] } ],
//   id: 'list',
//   classNames: [] }
console.log(root.toString());
// <ul id="list"><li>Hello World</li></ul>
root.set_content('<li>Hello World</li>');
root.toString();	// <li>Hello World</li>
```

```js
var HTMLParser = require('node-html-parser');

var root = HTMLParser.parse('<ul id="list"><li>Hello World</li></ul>');
```

## Global Methods

### parse(data[, options])

Parse the data provided, and return the root of the generated DOM.

- **data**, data to parse
- **options**, parse options

  ```js
  {
    lowerCaseTagName: false,		// convert tag name to lower case (hurts performance heavily)
    comment: false,           		// retrieve comments (hurts performance slightly)
    fixNestedATags: false,    		// fix invalid nested <a> HTML tags 
    parseNoneClosedTags: false, 	// close none closed HTML tags instead of removing them 
    voidTag: {
      tags: ['area', 'base', 'br', 'col', 'embed', 'hr', 'img', 'input', 'link', 'meta', 'param', 'source', 'track', 'wbr'],	// optional and case insensitive, default value is ['area', 'base', 'br', 'col', 'embed', 'hr', 'img', 'input', 'link', 'meta', 'param', 'source', 'track', 'wbr']
      closingSlash: true	// optional, default false. void tag serialisation, add a final slash <br/>
    },
    blockTextElements: {
      script: true,		// keep text content when parsing
      noscript: true,		// keep text content when parsing
      style: true,		// keep text content when parsing
      pre: true			// keep text content when parsing
    }
  }
  ```

### valid(data[, options])

Parse the data provided, return true if the given data is valid, and return false if not.

## HTMLElement Methods

### trimRight()

Trim element from right (in block) after seeing pattern in a TextNode.

### removeWhitespace()

Remove whitespaces in this sub tree.

### querySelectorAll(selector)

Query CSS selector to find matching nodes.

Note: Full range of CSS3 selectors supported since v3.0.0.

### querySelector(selector)

Query CSS Selector to find matching node. `null` if not found.

### getElementsByTagName(tagName)

Get all elements with the specified tagName.

Note: Use * for all elements.

### closest(selector)

Query closest element by css selector. `null` if not found.

### before(...nodesOrStrings)

Insert one or multiple nodes or text before the current element. Does not work on root.

### after(...nodesOrStrings)

Insert one or multiple nodes or text after the current element. Does not work on root.

### prepend(...nodesOrStrings)

Insert one or multiple nodes or text to the first position of an element's child nodes.

### append(...nodesOrStrings)

Insert one or multiple nodes or text to the last position of an element's child nodes.
This is similar to appendChild, but accepts arbitrarily many nodes and converts strings to text nodes.

### appendChild(node)

Append a node to an element's child nodes.

### insertAdjacentHTML(where, html)

Parses the specified text as HTML and inserts the resulting nodes into the DOM tree at a specified position.

### setAttribute(key: string, value: string)

Set `value` to `key` attribute.

### setAttributes(attrs: Record<string, string>)

Set attributes of the element.

### removeAttribute(key: string)

Remove `key` attribute.

### getAttribute(key: string)

Get `key` attribute. `undefined` if not set.

### exchangeChild(oldNode: Node, newNode: Node)

Exchanges given child with new child.

### removeChild(node: Node)

Remove child node.

### toString()

Same as [outerHTML](#htmlelementouterhtml)

### set_content(content: string | Node | Node[])

Set content. **Notice**: Do not set content of the **root** node.

### remove()

Remove current element.

### replaceWith(...nodes: (string | Node)[])

Replace current element with other node(s).

### classList

#### classList.add

Add class name.

#### classList.replace(old: string, new: string)

Replace class name with another one.

#### classList.remove()

Remove class name.

#### classList.toggle(className: string):void

Toggle class. Remove it if it is already included, otherwise add.

#### classList.contains(className: string): boolean

Returns true if the classname is already in the classList.

#### classList.value

Get class names.

#### clone()

Clone a node.

#### getElementById(id: string): HTMLElement | null

Get element by it's ID.

## HTMLElement Properties

### text

Get unescaped text value of current node and its children. Like `innerText`.
(slow for the first time)

### rawText

Get escaped (as-is) text value of current node and its children. May have
`&amp;` in it. (fast)

### tagName

Get or Set tag name of HTMLElement. Note that the returned value is an uppercase string.

### structuredText

Get structured Text.

### structure

Get DOM structure.

### childNodes

Get all child nodes. A child node can be a TextNode, a CommentNode and a HTMLElement.

### children

Get all child elements, so all child nodes of type HTMLELement.

### firstChild

Get first child node. `undefined` if the node has no children.

### lastChild

Get last child node. `undefined` if the node has no children.

### firstElementChild

Get the first child of type HTMLElement. `undefined` if none exists.

### lastElementChild

Get the first child of type HTMLElement. `undefined` if none exists.

### childElementCount

Get the number of children that are of type HTMLElement.

### innerHTML

Set or Get innerHTML.

### outerHTML

Get outerHTML.

### nextSibling

Returns a reference to the next child node of the current element's parent. `null` if not found.

### nextElementSibling

Returns a reference to the next child element of the current element's parent. `null` if not found.

### previousSibling

Returns a reference to the previous child node of the current element's parent. `null` if not found.

### previousElementSibling

Returns a reference to the previous child element of the current element's parent. `null` if not found.

### textContent

Get or Set textContent of current element, more efficient than [set_content](#htmlelementset_contentcontent-string--node--node).

### attributes

Get all attributes of current element. **Notice: do not try to change the returned value.**

### range

Corresponding source code start and end indexes (ie [ 0, 40 ])

## WASM / 浏览器 & Node.js 使用

本仓库同时支持:

- 作为普通 Rust 库 (native)
- 编译为 WebAssembly,在浏览器或 Node.js 中调用

### 构建前准备

1. 安装 wasm 目标
	```bash
	rustup target add wasm32-unknown-unknown
	```
2. (可选)安装 wasm-pack
	```bash
	cargo install wasm-pack
	```

### Feature 说明

| Feature | 作用 | 默认 | 备注 |
|---------|------|------|------|
| parallel | 启用 rayon 并行 | 启用 | wasm 线程需额外配置,建议 wasm 下关闭 |
| wasm | 启用 wasm-bindgen + panic hook | 关闭 | wasm 构建时启用 |

在 wasm 场景下为避免 rayon 线程问题,建议使用:`--no-default-features --features wasm`。

### 使用 wasm-pack 构建(推荐)

```bash
wasm-pack build --release --target bundler --no-default-features --features wasm
# 或 --target web / nodejs / deno 视使用环境而定
```

输出目录 `pkg/` 中包含:

- `node_html_parser_bg.wasm`
- 对应 JS 绑定与类型声明

### 浏览器示例

```html
<script type="module">
import init, { hello } from './pkg/node_html_parser.js';
await init();
console.log(hello('Browser'));
</script>
```

### Node.js 示例 (ESM)

```js
import init, { hello } from './pkg/node_html_parser.js';
await init();
console.log(hello('Node'));
```

### 直接使用 cargo 构建 (无 JS 包装层)

```bash
cargo build --release --target wasm32-unknown-unknown --no-default-features --features wasm
```

你需要自己加载 `.wasm` 并处理导出(`wasm-bindgen` 生成包装时不需要)。

### Panic 与调试

启用 `wasm` feature 后自动安装 `console_error_panic_hook`,可在浏览器控制台看到 Rust panic 堆栈。

### 并行策略

`total_len` 等内部函数在启用 `parallel` 时使用 rayon 并行;在 wasm 构建关闭 `parallel` 时会自动退化为串行。

### 未来计划(可选)

- 导出完整 HTML Parser API 到 wasm
- 提供更细粒度的 DOM 访问接口
- 带 wasm 线程支持(SharedArrayBuffer 环境)
