querydom
jQuery style DOM querying from the command line, for easy querying & piping i/o to other command line utilities.
Installation
$ npm install -g querydom
Usage
querydom uses querySelector syntax, or what you're used to from CSS or jQuery.
You can easily pipe HTML to the querydom
command:
$ curl -s http://www.google.com | querydom title
> "Google Search"
$ echo '<div class="example">Hello, World!</div>' | querydom 'div.example'
> "Hello, World!"
You can also pass an HTML string as the first argument:
$ querydom '<textarea>Success</textarea>' textarea
> "Success"
Operations
You can supply jQuery-like operations, and the program will output the result. The default operation if none is supplied is --text
, so the program by default behaves like jQuery(selector).text()
Equivalent to $('input').attr('name')
:
$ echo '<input name="user" value="john">' | querydom input --attr=name
> "user"
Equivalent to $('input').val
:
$ echo '<input name="user" value="john">' | querydom 'input' --val
> "john"
Chaining
Chaining works as well. Below is the equivalent to $('span').parent().find('span').text()
:
$ echo '<div><span>foobar</span></div>' | querydom span --parent --find=span --text
> "foobar"
