hast-util-to-nlcst

hast utility to transform to nlcst.

Note: You probably want to use rehype-retext.

Install

npm:

npm install hast-util-to-nlcst

Use

Say we have the following example.html:

<article>
  Implicit.
  <h1>Explicit: <strong>foo</strong>s-ball</h1>
  <pre><code class="language-foo">bar()</code></pre>
</article>

…and next to it, index.js:

var rehype = require('rehype')
var vfile = require('to-vfile')
var English = require('parse-english')
var inspect = require('unist-util-inspect')
var toNlcst = require('hast-util-to-nlcst')

var file = vfile.readSync('example.html')
var tree = rehype().parse(file)

console.log(inspect(toNlcst(tree, file, English)))

Which, when running, yields:

RootNode[2] (1:1-6:1, 0-134)
├─ ParagraphNode[3] (1:10-3:3, 9-24)
│  ├─ WhiteSpaceNode: "\n  " (1:10-2:3, 9-12)

API

toNlcst(tree, file, Parser)

Transform the given hast tree to nlcst.

Parameters

• tree (HastNode) — Tree with positional info (HastNode)
• file (VFile) — Virtual file
• parser (Function) — nlcst parser, such as parse-english, parse-dutch, or parse-latin

Returns

NlcstNode.

Notes

Implied paragraphs

The algorithm supports implicit and explicit paragraphs, such as:

<article>
  An implicit paragraph.
  <h1>An explicit paragraph.</h1>
</article>

Overlapping paragraphs are also supported (see the tests or the HTML spec for more info).

Ignored nodes

Some elements are ignored and their content will not be present in nlcst: <script>, <style>, <svg>, <math>, <del>.

To ignore other elements, add a data-nlcst attribute with a value of ignore:

<p>This is <span data-nlcst="ignore">hidden</span>.</p>
<p data-nlcst="ignore">Completely hidden.</p>

Source nodes

<code> elements are mapped to Source nodes in nlcst.

To mark other elements as source, add a data-nlcst attribute with a value of source:

<p>This is <span data-nlcst="source">marked as source</span>.</p>
<p data-nlcst="source">Completely marked.</p>

Security

hast-util-to-nlcst does not change the original syntax tree so there are no openings for cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks.
