Usage

This project provides a way to manipulate HTML files and update them dynamically. Here's how you can use it:

First, import the necessary classes from this project:

from html2object import HtmlElement

read your html file and:

Create an HtmlElement()

html = open(<path>, "r").read("bin/gui/index.html")
document = HtmlElement(html)

Create scripts

update_script = HtmlElement(name="script").add_child(
    "setInterval(() => reload(), 1500);"
)
document.add_child(update_script)

Create a div

p = HtmlElement(name="p", id="textID").add_chil("Text")
div = HtmlElement(name="div").add_child(p)
document.add_child(div)

Use Document functions like JS

text_element = document.get_element_by_id("textID")
strong = HtmlElement(name="strong").add_child("Strong text")
text_element.set_child([strong, "No strong text"])

save the html file running

open(path, "w").write(str(document)).close()
