GopherParse is a Go library that provides functionalities for parsing, manipulating, and formatting HTML and XML documents. It is inspired by the popular JavaScript library Cheerio and aims to offer a fast, flexible, and elegant way to work with HTML and XML content in Go.
To use GopherParse, you need to have Go installed and set up. Then, you can install the package using the go get command:
go get github.com/theifedayo/gopherparseImport the GopherParse package in your Go code:
import "github.com/theifedayo/gopherparse"You can parse HTML and XML documents by using the LoadHTML and LoadXML functions, respectively:
htmlContent := `
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Sample HTML Document</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Hello, World!</h1>
<p>This is a sample HTML document.</p>
</body>
</html>
`
gpObj, err := gopherparse.LoadHTML(htmlContent)
if err != nil {
// Handle error
}
// Now you can work with the GopherParse object.xmlContent := `
<root>
<item>Item 1</item>
<item>Item 2</item>
</root>
`
gpObj, err := gopherparse.LoadXML(xmlContent)
if err != nil {
// Handle error
}
// Now you can work with the GopherParse object.GopherParse also supports reading and parsing HTML and XML content from files:
htmlFilePath := "path/to/your/html/file.html"
gpObj, err := gopherparse.LoadHTMLFile(htmlFilePath)
if err != nil {
// Handle error
}
// Now you can work with the GopherParse object.xmlFilePath := "path/to/your/xml/file.xml"
gpObj, err := gopherparse.LoadXMLFile(xmlFilePath)
if err != nil {
// Handle error
}
// Now you can work with the GopherParse object.You can find elements in the parsed document using FindByTag and FindByClass methods:
h1Elements := gpObj.FindByTag("h1")
// Get all h1 elements in the document
pElements := gpObj.FindByClass("paragraph")
// Get all elements with class "paragraph" in the documentYou can manipulate elements in the document, such as setting their text content using SetText:
gpObj.SetText("h1", "Updated Heading")
// Set text content of all h1 elements to "Updated Heading"To get the HTML representation of the document, you can use the Render method:
htmlString := gpObj.Render()
// Get the HTML string representation of the documentFeel free to contribute to GopherParse by opening issues, submitting pull requests, or suggesting new features. Your contributions are highly appreciated!
