Whacko
Whacko is a fork of cheerio that uses parse5 as an underlying platform.
Install
$ npm install whacko
API
Difference with cheerio:
- Use
$.load(content)
to load HTML documents (e.g. missing<html>
tags will be automatically emitted in this case). - Use
$(content)
to create HTML-fragments which can be later added to the loaded document. - Parser options (e.g.
xmlMode
andnormalizeWhitespace
) are missing since whacko is intended for spec compliant HTML parsing. - New parser option
encodeEntities
added. When false, it disables HTML entities decoding on serialization. - New parser option
decodeHtmlEntities
added. When false, it disables HTML entities decoding on parse.
In all other aspects it is the same with the cheerio API.
