Fast HTML Parser

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 <li>, <td> etc).

Install

npm install --save node-html-parser

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

Performance

Faster than htmlparser2!

htmlparser      :26.7111 ms/file ± 170.066
cheerio         :24.2480 ms/file ± 17.1711
parse5          :13.7239 ms/file ± 8.68561
high5           :7.75466 ms/file ± 5.33549
htmlparser2     :5.27376 ms/file ± 8.68456
node-html-parser:2.85768 ms/file ± 2.87784

Tested with htmlparser-benchmark.

Usage

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>

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

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

Global Methods

parse(data[, options])

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

• data, data to parse
• options, parse options

  {
    lowerCaseTagName: false,  // convert tag name to lower case (hurt performance heavily)
    comment: false            // retrieve comments (hurt performance slightly)
    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 given data, return true if the givent data is valid, and return false if not.
