html5rdf is a pure-python library for parsing HTML to DOMFragment objects for the use in RDFLib.
html5rdf is a fork of html5lib-python. See below for the html5lib README.
----
It is designed to conform to the WHATWG HTML specification, as is implemented by all major
web browsers.
htm5lib-modern is designed as a drop-in replacement for ``html5lib`` that exposes a new
``html5lib`` module without Python 2 support and without the legacy dependencies on
``six``, and ``webencodings``. Note, you should not have the old deprecated ``html5lib``
and ``html5lib-modern`` in your dependency tree at the same time, because they alias.
Usage
-----
Simple usage follows this pattern:
.. code-block:: python
import html5rdf
with open("mydocument.html", "rb") as f:
document = html5rdf.parse(f)
or:
.. code-block:: python
import html5rdf
document = html5rdf.parse("<p>Hello World!")
By default, the ``document`` will be an ``xml.etree`` element instance.
Whenever possible, html5lib chooses the accelerated ``ElementTree``
implementation.
Two other tree types are supported: ``xml.dom.minidom`` and
``lxml.etree``. To use an alternative format, specify the name of
a treebuilder:
.. code-block:: python
import html5rdf
with open("mydocument.html", "rb") as f:
lxml_etree_document = html5rdf.parse(f, treebuilder="lxml")
When using with ``urllib.request`` (Python 3), the charset from HTTP
should be pass into html5rdf as follows:
.. code-block:: python
from urllib.request import urlopen
import html5rdf
with urlopen("http://example.com/") as f:
document = html5rdf.parse(f, transport_encoding=f.info().get_content_charset())
To have more control over the parser, create a parser object explicitly.
For instance, to make the parser raise exceptions on parse errors, use:
.. code-block:: python
import html5rdf
with open("mydocument.html", "rb") as f:
parser = html5rdf.HTMLParser(strict=True)
document = parser.parse(f)
When you're instantiating parser objects explicitly, pass a treebuilder
class as the ``tree`` keyword argument to use an alternative document
format:
.. code-block:: python
import html5rdf
parser = html5rdf.HTMLParser(tree=html5rdf.getTreeBuilder("dom"))
minidom_document = parser.parse("<p>Hello World!")
More documentation is available at https://html5lib.readthedocs.io/.
Installation
------------
html5rdf works on CPython 3.8+ and PyPy. To install:
.. code-block:: bash
$ pip install html5rdf
The goal is to support a (non-strict) superset of the versions that `pip
supports
<https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/installing/#python-and-os-compatibility>`_.
Optional Dependencies
---------------------
The following third-party libraries may be used for additional
functionality:
- ``lxml`` is supported as a tree format (for both building and
walking) under CPython (but *not* PyPy where it is known to cause
segfaults);
- ``genshi`` has a treewalker (but not builder); and
- ``chardet`` can be used as a fallback when character encoding cannot
be determined.
Bugs
----
Please report any bugs on the `issue tracker
<https://github.com/html5lib/html5lib-python/issues>`_.
Tests
-----
Unit tests require the ``pytest`` and ``mock`` libraries and can be
run using the ``pytest`` command in the root directory.
Test data are contained in a separate `html5lib-tests
<https://github.com/html5lib/html5lib-tests>`_ repository and included
as a submodule, thus for git checkouts they must be initialized::
$ git submodule init
$ git submodule update
If you have all compatible Python implementations available on your
system, you can run tests on all of them using the ``tox`` utility,
which can be found on PyPI.
