@types/parse5
Advanced tools
@types/parse5 provides TypeScript type definitions for the parse5 library, which is a fast and fault-tolerant HTML parser. It allows developers to parse HTML documents into a tree structure, manipulate the tree, and serialize it back to HTML.
Parsing HTML
This feature allows you to parse an HTML string into a Document object. The resulting object represents the entire HTML document as a tree structure.
const parse5 = require('parse5');
const document = parse5.parse('<!DOCTYPE html><html><head></head><body>Hi</body></html>');
console.log(document);Serializing HTML
This feature allows you to serialize a Document object back into an HTML string. This is useful for converting the manipulated tree structure back to HTML.
const parse5 = require('parse5');
const document = parse5.parse('<!DOCTYPE html><html><head></head><body>Hi</body></html>');
const html = parse5.serialize(document);
console.log(html);Tree Adapters
Tree adapters allow you to customize the tree structure that parse5 generates. This feature is useful for integrating parse5 with other libraries or frameworks that use different tree structures.
const parse5 = require('parse5');
const treeAdapter = require('parse5/lib/tree-adapters/default');
const document = parse5.parse('<!DOCTYPE html><html><head></head><body>Hi</body></html>', { treeAdapter });
console.log(document);htmlparser2 is a fast and forgiving HTML/XML parser. It is similar to parse5 in that it can parse HTML into a tree structure, but it is generally faster and more lightweight. However, it may not be as fault-tolerant as parse5.
jsdom is a JavaScript implementation of the DOM and HTML standards. It is more comprehensive than parse5, providing a full DOM API. This makes it suitable for more complex use cases, but it is also heavier and slower compared to parse5.
cheerio is a fast, flexible, and lean implementation of core jQuery designed specifically for the server. It uses htmlparser2 to parse HTML and provides a jQuery-like API for manipulating the resulting tree. It is simpler to use than parse5 but less powerful in terms of customization.
