Class Method Details

.default(&handler) ⇒ Object

Set a default rule for unrecognized tags.

Unless you define a special case, it will ignore the tags and just output the contents of unrecognized tags.

end

.post_processing(regexp, replacement = nil, &handler) ⇒ Object

Add a post-processing rule to your parser.

This takes a regular expression that will be applied to the output after processing any nodes. It can take a string as a replacement, or a block that will be passed to String#gsub.

post_processing(/\n\n+/, "\n\n") # compress more than two newlines
post_processing(/whatever/) { ... }

def self.post_processing_rules #:nodoc:
  @post_processing_rules ||= {}
end

.pre_processing(selector, &handler) ⇒ Object

Add a pre-processing rule to your parser.

This lets you mutate the DOM before applying any rule defined with rule_for. You need to pass a CSS/XPath selector, and a block that takes an Hpricot element to parse it.

pre_processing "ul.toc" do |element|
  element.swap("<p>[[toc]]</p>")
end

Would replace any unordered lists with the class toc for a paragraph containing the code [[toc]].

.rule_for(*tags, &handler) ⇒ Object

Add a parsing rule for a group of html tags.

rule_for :p do |element|
  "<this was a paragraph>#{content_of(element)}</this was a paragraph>"
end

will replace your <p> tags for <this was a paragraph> tags, without altering the contents.

The element yielded to the block is an Hpricot element for the given tag.

  end
end

.whitelist_attributes(*attrs) ⇒ Object

Set a list of attributes you wish to whitelist

Any attribute not in this list at the moment of parsing will be ignored by the parser. The method Grammar#attributes(node) will return a hash of the filtered attributes. Read its documentation for more details.

whitelist_attributes :id, :class, :lang

def self.whitelisted_attributes #:nodoc:
  @whitelisted_attributes || []
end

Instance Method Details

#attributes(node) ⇒ Object

Hash of attributes, according to the white list. By default, no attributes are whitelisted, so you must set which ones to whitelist on each grammar.

Supposing you set :id and :class as your whitelisted_attributes, and you have a node representing this HTML:

<p lang="en" class="greeting">Hello World</p>

Then the method would return:

{ :class => "greeting" }

You can override this method in each grammar and call super if you will represent your attributes consistently across all nodes (for example, Textile always shows class an id inside parenthesis.)

Get the result of parsing the contents of a node.

  process(node.respond_to?(:children) ? node.children : node)
end

#process(nodes) ⇒ Object

Process a DOM node, converting it to your markup language according to your defined rules. If the node is a Text node, it will return it’s string representation. Otherwise it will call the rule defined for it.
