Constructor Detail

Parser

public Parser(org.jsoup.parser.TreeBuilder treeBuilder)

Create a new Parser, using the specified TreeBuilder

Parameters:

treeBuilder - TreeBuilder to use to parse input into Documents.

Method Detail

parseInput

public Document parseInput(String html,
                           String baseUri)

getTreeBuilder

public org.jsoup.parser.TreeBuilder getTreeBuilder()

Get the TreeBuilder currently in use.

Returns:

current TreeBuilder.

setTreeBuilder

public Parser setTreeBuilder(org.jsoup.parser.TreeBuilder treeBuilder)

Update the TreeBuilder used when parsing content.

Parameters:

treeBuilder - current TreeBuilder

Returns:

this, for chaining

isTrackErrors

public boolean isTrackErrors()

Check if parse error tracking is enabled.

Returns:

current track error state.

setTrackErrors

public Parser setTrackErrors(int maxErrors)

Enable or disable parse error tracking for the next parse.

Parameters:

maxErrors - the maximum number of errors to track. Set to 0 to disable.

Returns:

this, for chaining

getErrors

public List<ParseError> getErrors()

Retrieve the parse errors, if any, from the last parse.

Returns:

list of parse errors, up to the size of the maximum errors tracked.

parse

public static Document parse(String html,
                             String baseUri)

Parse HTML into a Document.

Parameters:

html - HTML to parse

baseUri - base URI of document (i.e. original fetch location), for resolving relative URLs.

Returns:

parsed Document

parseFragment

public static List<Node> parseFragment(String fragmentHtml,
                                       Element context,
                                       String baseUri)

Parse a fragment of HTML into a list of nodes. The context element, if supplied, supplies parsing context.

Parameters:

fragmentHtml - the fragment of HTML to parse

context - (optional) the element that this HTML fragment is being parsed for (i.e. for inner HTML). This provides stack context (for implicit element creation).

baseUri - base URI of document (i.e. original fetch location), for resolving relative URLs.

Returns:

list of nodes parsed from the input HTML. Note that the context element, if supplied, is not modified.

parseXmlFragment

public static List<Node> parseXmlFragment(String fragmentXml,
                                          String baseUri)

Parse a fragment of XML into a list of nodes.

Parameters:

fragmentXml - the fragment of XML to parse

baseUri - base URI of document (i.e. original fetch location), for resolving relative URLs.

Returns:

list of nodes parsed from the input XML.

parseBodyFragment

public static Document parseBodyFragment(String bodyHtml,
                                         String baseUri)

Parse a fragment of HTML into the body of a Document.

Parameters:

bodyHtml - fragment of HTML

baseUri - base URI of document (i.e. original fetch location), for resolving relative URLs.

Returns:

Document, with empty head, and HTML parsed into body

unescapeEntities

public static String unescapeEntities(String string,
                                      boolean inAttribute)

Utility method to unescape HTML entities from a string

Parameters:

string - HTML escaped string

inAttribute - if the string is to be escaped in strict mode (as attributes are)

Returns:

an unescaped string

parseBodyFragmentRelaxed

public static Document parseBodyFragmentRelaxed(String bodyHtml,
                                                String baseUri)

Deprecated. Use parseBodyFragment(java.lang.String, java.lang.String) or parseFragment(java.lang.String, org.jsoup.nodes.Element, java.lang.String) instead.

Parameters:

bodyHtml - HTML to parse

baseUri - baseUri base URI of document (i.e. original fetch location), for resolving relative URLs.

Returns:

parsed Document

htmlParser

public static Parser htmlParser()

Create a new HTML parser. This parser treats input as HTML5, and enforces the creation of a normalised document, based on a knowledge of the semantics of the incoming tags.

Returns:

a new HTML parser.

xmlParser

public static Parser xmlParser()

Create a new XML parser. This parser assumes no knowledge of the incoming tags and does not treat it as HTML, rather creates a simple tree directly from the input.

Returns:

a new simple XML parser.
