Class Parser

Method Details

• newInstance

  public Parser newInstance()

  Creates a new Parser as a deep copy of this; including initializing a new TreeBuilder. Allows independent (multi-threaded) use.

  Returns:

  a copied parser

• parseInput

  public Document parseInput(String html, String baseUri)

• parseInput

  public Document parseInput(Reader inputHtml, String baseUri)

• parseFragmentInput

  public List<Node> parseFragmentInput(String fragment, Element context, 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 - new 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 ParseErrorList 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.

  See Also:

  • setTrackErrors(int)

• isTrackPosition

  public boolean isTrackPosition()

  Test if position tracking is enabled. If it is, Nodes will have a Position to track where in the original input source they were created from. By default, tracking is not enabled.

  Returns:

  current track position setting

• setTrackPosition

  public Parser setTrackPosition(boolean trackPosition)

  Enable or disable source position tracking. If enabled, Nodes will have a Position to track where in the original input source they were created from.

  Parameters:

  trackPosition - position tracking setting; true to enable

  Returns:

  this Parser, for chaining

• settings

  public Parser settings(ParseSettings settings)

  Update the ParseSettings of this Parser, to control the case sensitivity of tags and attributes.

  Parameters:

  settings - the new settings

  Returns:

  this Parser

• settings

  public ParseSettings settings()

  Gets the current ParseSettings for this Parser

  Returns:

  current ParseSettings

• isContentForTagData

  public boolean isContentForTagData(String normalName)

  (An internal method, visible for Element. For HTML parse, signals that script and style text should be treated as Data Nodes).

• defaultNamespace

  public String defaultNamespace()

• 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.

• parseFragment

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

  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.

  errorList - list to add errors to

  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

• 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.
