Simple package that wraps libtidy.
GoTidy uses CGO to link to Libtidy. Libtidy must be a shared library. OSX Lion comes with Libtidy, but it is a static library which will cause all sorts of problems. See below about compiling Tidy as a shared library under OSX.
go get github.com/JalfResi/GoTidy
And import into your program like so:
import "github.com/JalfResi/GoTidy"
go get github.com/JalfResi/GoTidy/gotidy
Example usage of example binary:
$ echo "<html><body><p>Rad" | gotidy
package main
import (
"fmt"
"log"
"github.com/JalfResi/GoTidy"
)
func main() {
// Create an instance of Tidy
t := tidy.New()
defer t.Free()
// Set our options
t.OutputXml(true)
t.AddXmlDecl(true)
t.QuoteAmpersand(true)
t.TidyMark(false)
// Tidy our source HTML!
output, err := t.Tidy("<title id='bob' class='frank'>Welcome</title><p>Hello, 世界</p><p>Foo!")
if err != nil {
log.Fatal(err, output)
}
fmt.Println(output)
}
The package if very straight forward: simply create an instance of Tidy using New(), set the options you want and then call the Tidy() instance method, passing it the string of HTML to tidy. The Tidy() method returns the output (if any) and maybe an Error object.
This is relatively easy to do. Simply download the Tidy source code, and compile as per the following instructions. This has been known to work under OSX Lion.
sh build/gnuauto/setup.sh && ./configure && make
make install
Note that you will either need to run make install as root, or with sudo make install.
Thanks obviously to Dave Raggett for the awesome HTML Tidy library. Thanks to Evan Shaw, Gustavo Niemeyer, Matt Kane's Brain and TJ Yang for help on golang-nuts Thanks to shark and remy-o on irc.freenode.net#go-nuts with some of the trickier C casting stuff
- Modify Tidy() method to accept Reader interface
- MOAR Documentation!
- Unit Tests ya fool!
