Resilient markup parser library
The library is used to parse HTML, XML, and XHTML documents and streams. The parser produces a tree of nodes that represent the structure of the document. The parse tree is very simple by design and doesn't try to replicate the document object model (DOM) in any significant way.
Ill-structured documents will be parsed without errors. The parser will try to detect and correct stray tags, broken tags, etc.
Both HTML and XML parsers are derived from the MarkupParser<TMarkupLexer> class and are used in the same way. You can access the parsers using the Document.Html and the Document.Xml static properties or by instantiating the HtmlParser and the XmlParser classes. The parsers provided by the static properties of the Document class are thread-safe and can be used in multiple threads simultaneously. The parsers instantiated directly are not thread-safe but can be slightly faster.
To parse a document from a string, use the Parse method of the MarkupParser class.
// Parse a string
var document = Document.Html.Parse("<html><head></head><body></body></html>");
// Search for a body element using XPath
var body = document.Find("/html/body").FirstOrDefault() as ParentTag;
To parse a document from a file or any stream, use the ParseAsync method of the MarkupParser class.
// Parse a stream
var document = await Document.Html.ParseAsync(stream, cancellationToken);
// Search for a body element using XPath
var body = document.Find("/html/body").FirstOrDefault() as ParentTag;
ParseAsync can also accept an encoding parameter that specifies the encoding of the document. The default encoding is UTF-8. In any case the parser will automatically detect the encoding of the document from the markup and update it on the fly.
