xml,json都有大量的库来解析，我们如何解析html呢？
TFHpple是一个小型的封装，可以用来解析html，它是对libxml的封装，语法是xpath。
今天我看到一个直接用libxml来解析html，参看：http://www.cocoanetics.com/2011/09/taming-html-parsing-with-libxml-1/#comment-3090 那张图画得一目了然，很值得收藏。这个文章中的源码不能遍历所有的html，我做了一点修改可以将html遍历打印出来
// NSData data contains the document data
// encoding is the NSStringEncoding of the data
// baseURL the documents base URL, i.e. location
CFStringEncoding cfenc = CFStringConvertNSStringEncodingToEncoding(encoding);
CFStringRef cfencstr = CFStringConvertEncodingToIANACharSetName(cfenc);
const char *enc = CFStringGetCStringPtr(cfencstr, 0);
htmlDocPtr _htmlDocument = htmlReadDoc([data bytes],
[[baseURL absoluteString] UTF8String],
enc,
XML_PARSE_NOERROR | XML_PARSE_NOWARNING);
if (_htmlDocument)
{
xmlFreeDoc(_htmlDocument);
}
xmlNodePtr currentNode = (xmlNodePtr)_htmlDocument;
while (currentNode)
{
// output node if it is an element
if (currentNode->type == XML_ELEMENT_NODE)
{
NSMutableArray *attrArray = [NSMutableArray array];
for (xmlAttrPtr attrNode = currentNode->properties; attrNode; attrNode = attrNode->next)
{
xmlNodePtr contents = attrNode->children;
[attrArray addObject:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"%s='%s'", attrNode->name, contents->content]];
}
NSString *attrString = [attrArray componentsJoinedByString:@" "];
if ([attrString length])
{
attrString = [@" " stringByAppendingString:attrString];
}
NSLog(@"<%s%@>", currentNode->name, attrString);
}
else if (currentNode->type == XML_TEXT_NODE)
{
//NSLog(@"%s", currentNode->content);
NSLog(@"%@", [NSString stringWithCString:(const char *)currentNode->content encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]);
}
else if (currentNode->type == XML_COMMENT_NODE)
{
NSLog(@"/* %s */", currentNode->name);
}
if (currentNode && currentNode->children)
{
currentNode = currentNode->children;
}
else if (currentNode && currentNode->next)
{
currentNode = currentNode->next;
}
else
{
currentNode = currentNode->parent;
// close node
if (currentNode && currentNode->type == XML_ELEMENT_NODE)
{
NSLog(@"</%s>", currentNode->name);
}
if (currentNode->next)
{
currentNode = currentNode->next;
}
else
{
while(currentNode)
{
currentNode = currentNode->parent;
if (currentNode && currentNode->type == XML_ELEMENT_NODE)
{
NSLog(@"</%s>", currentNode->name);
if (strcmp((const char *)currentNode->name, "table") == 0)
{
NSLog(@"over");
}
}
if (currentNode == nodes->nodeTab[0])
{
break;
}
if (currentNode && currentNode->next)
{
currentNode = currentNode->next;
break;
}
}
}
}
if (currentNode == nodes->nodeTab[0])
{
break;
}
}
不过我还是喜欢用TFHpple，因为它很简单，也好用，但是它的功能不是很完完善。比如，不能获取children node,我就写了两个方法，一个是获取children node,一个是获取所有的contents. 还有node的属性content的key与node's content的key一样，都是@"nodeContent", 正确情况下属性的应是@"attributeContent"，
所以我写了这个方法，同时修改node属性的content key.
NSDictionary *DictionaryForNode2(xmlNodePtr currentNode, NSMutableDictionary *parentResult)
{
NSMutableDictionary *resultForNode = [NSMutableDictionary dictionary];
if (currentNode->name)
{
NSString *currentNodeContent =
[NSString stringWithCString:(const char *)currentNode->name encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];
[resultForNode setObject:currentNodeContent forKey:@"nodeName"];
}
if (currentNode->content)
{
NSString *currentNodeContent = [NSString stringWithCString:(const char *)currentNode->content encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];
if (currentNode->type == XML_TEXT_NODE)
{
if (currentNode->parent->type == XML_ELEMENT_NODE)
{
[parentResult setObject:currentNodeContent forKey:@"nodeContent"];
return nil;
}
if (currentNode->parent->type == XML_ATTRIBUTE_NODE)
{
[parentResult
setObject:
[currentNodeContent
stringByTrimmingCharactersInSet:[NSCharacterSet whitespaceAndNewlineCharacterSet]]
forKey:@"attributeContent"];
return nil;
}
}
}
xmlAttr *attribute = currentNode->properties;
if (attribute)
{
NSMutableArray *attributeArray = [NSMutableArray array];
while (attribute)
{
NSMutableDictionary *attributeDictionary = [NSMutableDictionary dictionary];
NSString *attributeName =
[NSString stringWithCString:(const char *)attribute->name encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];
if (attributeName)
{
[attributeDictionary setObject:attributeName forKey:@"attributeName"];
}
if (attribute->children)
{
NSDictionary *childDictionary = DictionaryForNode2(attribute->children, attributeDictionary);
if (childDictionary)
{
[attributeDictionary setObject:childDictionary forKey:@"attributeContent"];
}
}
if ([attributeDictionary count] > 0)
{
[attributeArray addObject:attributeDictionary];
}
attribute = attribute->next;
}
if ([attributeArray count] > 0)
{
[resultForNode setObject:attributeArray forKey:@"nodeAttributeArray"];
}
}
xmlNodePtr childNode = currentNode->children;
if (childNode)
{
NSMutableArray *childContentArray = [NSMutableArray array];
while (childNode)
{
NSDictionary *childDictionary = DictionaryForNode2(childNode, resultForNode);
if (childDictionary)
{
[childContentArray addObject:childDictionary];
}
childNode = childNode->next;
}
if ([childContentArray count] > 0)
{
[resultForNode setObject:childContentArray forKey:@"nodeChildArray"];
}
}
return resultForNode;
}
TFHppleElement.m里加了两个key 常量
NSString * const TFHppleNodeAttributeContentKey = @"attributeContent"; NSString * const TFHppleNodeChildArrayKey = @"nodeChildArray";
并修改获取属性方法为：
- (NSDictionary *) attributes
{
NSMutableDictionary * translatedAttributes = [NSMutableDictionary dictionary];
for (NSDictionary * attributeDict in [node objectForKey:TFHppleNodeAttributeArrayKey]) {
[translatedAttributes setObject:[attributeDict objectForKey:TFHppleNodeAttributeContentKey]
forKey:[attributeDict objectForKey:TFHppleNodeAttributeNameKey]];
}
return translatedAttributes;
}
并添加获取children node 方法：
- (BOOL) hasChildren
{
NSArray *childs = [node objectForKey: TFHppleNodeChildArrayKey];
if (childs)
{
return YES;
}
return NO;
}
- (NSArray *) children
{
if ([self hasChildren])
return [node objectForKey: TFHppleNodeChildArrayKey];
return nil;
}
最后我还加了一个获取所有content的主法：
- (NSString *)contentsAt:(NSString *)xPathOrCss;
