- html5lib
- ========
-
- .. image:: https://travis-ci.org/html5lib/html5lib-python.png?branch=master
- :target: https://travis-ci.org/html5lib/html5lib-python
-
- html5lib is a pure-python library for parsing HTML. It is designed to
- conform to the WHATWG HTML specification, as is implemented by all major
- web browsers.
-
-
- Usage
- -----
-
- Simple usage follows this pattern:
-
- .. code-block:: python
-
- import html5lib
- with open("mydocument.html", "rb") as f:
- document = html5lib.parse(f)
-
- or:
-
- .. code-block:: python
-
- import html5lib
- document = html5lib.parse("<p>Hello World!")
-
- By default, the ``document`` will be an ``xml.etree`` element instance.
- Whenever possible, html5lib chooses the accelerated ``ElementTree``
- implementation (i.e. ``xml.etree.cElementTree`` on Python 2.x).
-
- Two other tree types are supported: ``xml.dom.minidom`` and
- ``lxml.etree``. To use an alternative format, specify the name of
- a treebuilder:
-
- .. code-block:: python
-
- import html5lib
- with open("mydocument.html", "rb") as f:
- lxml_etree_document = html5lib.parse(f, treebuilder="lxml")
-
- When using with ``urllib2`` (Python 2), the charset from HTTP should be
- pass into html5lib as follows:
-
- .. code-block:: python
-
- from contextlib import closing
- from urllib2 import urlopen
- import html5lib
-
- with closing(urlopen("http://example.com/")) as f:
- document = html5lib.parse(f, transport_encoding=f.info().getparam("charset"))
-
- When using with ``urllib.request`` (Python 3), the charset from HTTP
- should be pass into html5lib as follows:
-
- .. code-block:: python
-
- from urllib.request import urlopen
- import html5lib
-
- with urlopen("http://example.com/") as f:
- document = html5lib.parse(f, transport_encoding=f.info().get_content_charset())
-
- To have more control over the parser, create a parser object explicitly.
- For instance, to make the parser raise exceptions on parse errors, use:
-
- .. code-block:: python
-
- import html5lib
- with open("mydocument.html", "rb") as f:
- parser = html5lib.HTMLParser(strict=True)
- document = parser.parse(f)
-
- When you're instantiating parser objects explicitly, pass a treebuilder
- class as the ``tree`` keyword argument to use an alternative document
- format:
-
- .. code-block:: python
-
- import html5lib
- parser = html5lib.HTMLParser(tree=html5lib.getTreeBuilder("dom"))
- minidom_document = parser.parse("<p>Hello World!")
-
- More documentation is available at https://html5lib.readthedocs.io/.
-
-
- Installation
- ------------
-
- html5lib works on CPython 2.7+, CPython 3.3+ and PyPy. To install it,
- use:
-
- .. code-block:: bash
-
- $ pip install html5lib
-
-
- Optional Dependencies
- ---------------------
-
- The following third-party libraries may be used for additional
- functionality:
-
- - ``datrie`` can be used under CPython to improve parsing performance
- (though in almost all cases the improvement is marginal);
-
- - ``lxml`` is supported as a tree format (for both building and
- walking) under CPython (but *not* PyPy where it is known to cause
- segfaults);
-
- - ``genshi`` has a treewalker (but not builder); and
-
- - ``chardet`` can be used as a fallback when character encoding cannot
- be determined.
-
-
- Bugs
- ----
-
- Please report any bugs on the `issue tracker
- <https://github.com/html5lib/html5lib-python/issues>`_.
-
-
- Tests
- -----
-
- Unit tests require the ``pytest`` and ``mock`` libraries and can be
- run using the ``py.test`` command in the root directory.
-
- Test data are contained in a separate `html5lib-tests
- <https://github.com/html5lib/html5lib-tests>`_ repository and included
- as a submodule, thus for git checkouts they must be initialized::
-
- $ git submodule init
- $ git submodule update
-
- If you have all compatible Python implementations available on your
- system, you can run tests on all of them using the ``tox`` utility,
- which can be found on PyPI.
-
-

- ----------
-
- There's a mailing list available for support on Google Groups,
- `html5lib-discuss <http://groups.google.com/group/html5lib-discuss>`_,
- though you may get a quicker response asking on IRC in `#whatwg on
- irc.freenode.net <http://wiki.whatwg.org/wiki/IRC>`_.

-
- 1.0
- ~~~
-
- Released and unreleased on December 7, 2017. Badly packaged release.
-
-
- 0.999999999/1.0b10
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
- Released on July 15, 2016
-
- * Fix attribute order going to the tree builder to be document order
- instead of reverse document order(!).
-
-
- 0.99999999/1.0b9
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
- Released on July 14, 2016
-
- * **Added ordereddict as a mandatory dependency on Python 2.6.**
-
- * Added ``lxml``, ``genshi``, ``datrie``, ``charade``, and ``all``
- extras that will do the right thing based on the specific
- interpreter implementation.
-
- * Now requires the ``mock`` package for the testsuite.
-
- * Cease supporting DATrie under PyPy.
-
- * **Remove PullDOM support, as this hasn't ever been properly
- tested, doesn't entirely work, and as far as I can tell is
- completely unused by anyone.**
-
- * Move testsuite to ``py.test``.
-
- * **Fix #124: move to webencodings for decoding the input byte stream;
- this makes html5lib compliant with the Encoding Standard, and
- introduces a required dependency on webencodings.**
-
- * **Cease supporting Python 3.2 (in both CPython and PyPy forms).**
-
- * **Fix comments containing double-dash with lxml 3.5 and above.**
-
- * **Use scripting disabled by default (as we don't implement
- scripting).**
-
- * **Fix #11, avoiding the XSS bug potentially caused by serializer
- allowing attribute values to be escaped out of in old browser versions,
- changing the quote_attr_values option on serializer to take one of
- three values, "always" (the old True value), "legacy" (the new option,
- and the new default), and "spec" (the old False value, and the old
- default).**
-
- * **Fix #72 by rewriting the sanitizer to apply only to treewalkers
- (instead of the tokenizer); as such, this will require amending all
- callers of it to use it via the treewalker API.**
-
- * **Drop support of charade, now that chardet is supported once more.**
-
- * **Replace the charset keyword argument on parse and related methods
- with a set of keyword arguments: override_encoding, transport_encoding,
- same_origin_parent_encoding, likely_encoding, and default_encoding.**
-
- * **Move filters._base, treebuilder._base, and treewalkers._base to .base
- to clarify their status as public.**
-
- * **Get rid of the sanitizer package. Merge sanitizer.sanitize into the
- sanitizer.htmlsanitizer module and move that to sanitizer. This means
- anyone who used sanitizer.sanitize or sanitizer.HTMLSanitizer needs no
- code changes.**
-
- * **Rename treewalkers.lxmletree to .etree_lxml and
- treewalkers.genshistream to .genshi to have a consistent API.**
-
- * Move a whole load of stuff (inputstream, ihatexml, trie, tokenizer,
- utils) to be underscore prefixed to clarify their status as private.
-
-
- 0.9999999/1.0b8
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
- Released on September 10, 2015
-
- * Fix #195: fix the sanitizer to drop broken URLs (it threw an
- exception between 0.9999 and 0.999999).
-
-
- 0.999999/1.0b7
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
- Released on July 7, 2015
-
- * Fix #189: fix the sanitizer to allow relative URLs again (as it did
- prior to 0.9999/1.0b5).
-
-
- 0.99999/1.0b6
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
- Released on April 30, 2015
-
- * Fix #188: fix the sanitizer to not throw an exception when sanitizing
- bogus data URLs.
-
-
- 0.9999/1.0b5
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
- Released on April 29, 2015
-
- * Fix #153: Sanitizer fails to treat some attributes as URLs. Despite how
- this sounds, this has no known security implications. No known version
- of IE (5.5 to current), Firefox (3 to current), Safari (6 to current),
- Chrome (1 to current), or Opera (12 to current) will run any script
- provided in these attributes.
-
- * Pass error message to the ParseError exception in strict parsing mode.
-
- * Allow data URIs in the sanitizer, with a whitelist of content-types.
-
- * Add support for Python implementations that don't support lone
- surrogates (read: Jython). Fixes #2.
-
- * Remove localization of error messages. This functionality was totally
- unused (and untested that everything was localizable), so we may as
- well follow numerous browsers in not supporting translating technical
- strings.
-
- * Expose treewalkers.pprint as a public API.
-
- * Add a documentEncoding property to HTML5Parser, fix #121.
-
-
- 0.999
- ~~~~~
-
- Released on December 23, 2013
-
- * Fix #127: add work-around for CPython issue #20007: .read(0) on
- http.client.HTTPResponse drops the rest of the content.
-
- * Fix #115: lxml treewalker can now deal with fragments containing, at
- their root level, text nodes with non-ASCII characters on Python 2.
-
-
- 0.99
- ~~~~
-
- Released on September 10, 2013
-
- * No library changes from 1.0b3; released as 0.99 as pip has changed
- behaviour from 1.4 to avoid installing pre-release versions per
- PEP 440.
-
-
- 1.0b3
- ~~~~~
-
- Released on July 24, 2013
-
- * Removed ``RecursiveTreeWalker`` from ``treewalkers._base``. Any
- implementation using it should be moved to
- ``NonRecursiveTreeWalker``, as everything bundled with html5lib has
- for years.
-
- * Fix #67 so that ``BufferedStream`` to correctly returns a bytes
- object, thereby fixing any case where html5lib is passed a
- non-seekable RawIOBase-like object.
-
-
- 1.0b2
- ~~~~~
-
- Released on June 27, 2013
-
- * Removed reordering of attributes within the serializer. There is now
- an ``alphabetical_attributes`` option which preserves the previous
- behaviour through a new filter. This allows attribute order to be
- preserved through html5lib if the tree builder preserves order.
-
- * Removed ``dom2sax`` from DOM treebuilders. It has been replaced by
- ``treeadapters.sax.to_sax`` which is generic and supports any
- treewalker; it also resolves all known bugs with ``dom2sax``.
-
- * Fix treewalker assertions on hitting bytes strings on
- Python 2. Previous to 1.0b1, treewalkers coped with mixed
- bytes/unicode data on Python 2; this reintroduces this prior
- behaviour on Python 2. Behaviour is unchanged on Python 3.
-
-
- 1.0b1
- ~~~~~
-
- Released on May 17, 2013
-
- * Implementation updated to implement the `HTML specification
- <http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/>`_ as of 5th May
- 2013 (`SVN <http://svn.whatwg.org/webapps/>`_ revision r7867).
-
- * Python 3.2+ supported in a single codebase using the ``six`` library.
-
- * Removed support for Python 2.5 and older.
-
- * Removed the deprecated Beautiful Soup 3 treebuilder.
- ``beautifulsoup4`` can use ``html5lib`` as a parser instead. Note that
- since it doesn't support namespaces, foreign content like SVG and
- MathML is parsed incorrectly.
-
- * Removed ``simpletree`` from the package. The default tree builder is
- now ``etree`` (using the ``xml.etree.cElementTree`` implementation if
- available, and ``xml.etree.ElementTree`` otherwise).
-
- * Removed the ``XHTMLSerializer`` as it never actually guaranteed its
- output was well-formed XML, and hence provided little of use.
-
- * Removed default DOM treebuilder, so ``html5lib.treebuilders.dom`` is no
- longer supported. ``html5lib.treebuilders.getTreeBuilder("dom")`` will
- return the default DOM treebuilder, which uses ``xml.dom.minidom``.
-
- * Optional heuristic character encoding detection now based on
- ``charade`` for Python 2.6 - 3.3 compatibility.
-
- * Optional ``Genshi`` treewalker support fixed.
-
- * Many bugfixes, including:
-
- * #33: null in attribute value breaks XML AttValue;
-
- * #4: nested, indirect descendant, <button> causes infinite loop;
-
- * `Google Code 215
- <http://code.google.com/p/html5lib/issues/detail?id=215>`_: Properly
- detect seekable streams;
-
- * `Google Code 206
- <http://code.google.com/p/html5lib/issues/detail?id=206>`_: add
- support for <video preload=...>, <audio preload=...>;
-
- * `Google Code 205
- <http://code.google.com/p/html5lib/issues/detail?id=205>`_: add
- support for <video poster=...>;
-
- * `Google Code 202
- <http://code.google.com/p/html5lib/issues/detail?id=202>`_: Unicode
- file breaks InputStream.
-
- * Source code is now mostly PEP 8 compliant.
-
- * Test harness has been improved and now depends on ``nose``.
-
- * Documentation updated and moved to https://html5lib.readthedocs.io/.
