Meeseeks.Document (Meeseeks v0.17.0) View Source

A Meeseeks.Document represents a flattened, queryable view of an HTML document in which:

  • The nodes (element, comment, or text) have been provided an id
  • Parent-child relationships have been made explicit

Examples

The actual contents of a document become quickly unwieldy in iex, so the inspect value of a document is always #Meeseeks.Document<{...}> regardless of the content. The example below ignores this fact for educational purposes.

tuple_tree = {"html", [],
               [{"head", [], []},
                {"body", [],
                 [{"h1", [{"id", "greeting"}], ["Hello, World!"]},
                  {"div", [], [
                      {"p", [], ["1"]},
                      {"p", [], ["2"]},
                      {"p", [], ["3"]}]}]}]}

document = Meeseeks.parse(tuple_tree, :tuple_tree)
#=> %Meeseeks.Document{
#      id_counter: 12,
#      roots: [1],
#      nodes: %{
