Travis-CI Build Status

htmltidy — Clean up gnarly HTML/XML

Inspired by this SO question and because there's a great deal of cruddy HTML out there that needs fixing to use properly when scraping data.

It relies on a locally included version of libtidy and presently is super-basic (no way to set options and pretty much only does HTML)

This works enough for me to use in a pinch. It should be straightforward (but tedious) to:

  • enable passing options in a list
  • Getting it to work on Windows.

The following functions are implemented:

  • tidy_html : Clean up gnarly HTML/XML

Installation

devtools::install_github("hrbrmstr/htmltidy")

Usage

library(htmltidy)

# current verison
packageVersion("htmltidy")
#> [1] '0.2.0.9000'

cat(tidy_html("<b><p><a href='http://google.com'>google &gt</a></p></b>"))
