Module scrapelect::interpreter::filter::builtin

Documentation for scrapelect’s built-in filters.

Conventions used:

• Signature of a filter: value: T | name(arg_1: U_1, ...): V means that name is a filter that takes a pipeline value of type T, has arguments arg_i of type U_i, and returns a value of type V
  • Specifying an arg type with a question mark (e.g., value: Value | dbg(msg: String?): Value) means that that argument (e.g., msg) is optional and can be omitted.
• List shorthand: a List is represented as [a_0, a_1, a_2, ..., a_n] to mean that its elements are a_0, ..., a_n in that order. Indexing starts at 0. This syntax is currently not valid scrapelect, but it is useful to express in documentation.
• Structure shorthand: similarly, a structure is represented as { key_1: value_1, key_2: value_2, … } to indicate that it has keys that correspond to the given values. This is not valid scrapelect, but it is useful in documentation.
• Element shorthand: an inline HTML element (e.g., <a href="github.com/suaviloquence/scrapelect">Link text</a>) is also not valid scrapelect, but is useful to demonstrate how Elements are used in filters.
