PostHTML Attrs Parser

PostHTML helper that gives a better API to work with tag's attrs.

Usage

var posthtml = require('posthtml'),
    parseAttrs = require('posthtml-attrs-parser');

posthtml()
    .use(function (tree) {
        var div = tree[0],
            attrs = parseAttrs(div.attrs);

        attrs.style['font-size'] = '15px';
        attrs.class.push('title-sub');

		// Compose attrs back to PostHTML-compatible format
        div.attrs = attrs.compose();
    })
    .process('<div class="title" style="font-size: 14px">Hello!</div>')
    .then(function (result) {
        console.log(result.html);
    });

// <div class="title title-sub" style="font-size: 15px">Hello!</div>

Attributes

Only style and class attributes are parsed by default (as object and array, respectively). For other attributes the parsing rules should be specified (see "Custom parsing rule" below).

Default attributes

style

// <div style="color: red; font-size: 14px; color: blue"></div>
var attrs = parseAttrs(div.attrs);
console.log(attrs.style);
/*
{
    // If there is several properties with the same name,
    // then the values are packed in array
    'color': ['red', 'blue'],
    'font-size': '14px'
}
*/

class

// <div class="title title-sub"></div>
var attrs = parseAttrs(div.attrs);
console.log(attrs.class);
// ['title', 'title-sub']

Custom parsing rule

You can also define the parsing rule for other attributes.

Array-like attribute

// <div data-ids="1  2 4 5   6"></div>
var attrs = parseAttrs(div.attrs, {
    rules: {
		'data-ids': {
			delimiter: /\s+/,
            // Optional parameter for stringifying attribute's values
            // If not set, glue = delimiter
			glue: ' '
		}
	}
});
console.log(attrs['data-ids']);
// ['1', '2', '4', '5', '6']

console.log(attrs.compose()['data-ids']);
// 1 2 3 4 5 6

Object-like attribute

// <div data-config="TEST=1;ENV=debug;PATH=."></div>
var attrs = parseAttrs(div.attrs, {
	rules: {
		'data-config': {
            // Delimiter for key-value pairs
			delimiter: ';',
            // Delimiter for a key-value
			keyDelimiter: '=',

            // Optional parameter for stringifying key-value pairs
            // If not set, keyGlue = keyDelimiter
			glue: '; ',
            // Optional parameter for stringifying a key-value
            // If not set, glue = delimiter
            keyGlue: ' = '
		}
	}
});
console.log(attrs['data-config']);
// {TEST: '1', ENV: 'debug', PATH: '.'}

console.log(attrs.compose()['data-config']);
// TEST = 1; ENV = debug; PATH = .
