Gokogiri

LibXML bindings for the Go programming language.

By Zhigang Chen and Hampton Catlin

This is a major rewrite from v0 in the following places:

  • Separation of XML and HTML
  • Put more burden of memory allocation/deallocation on Go
  • Fragment parsing -- no more deep-copy
  • Serialization
  • Some API adjustment

Installation

# Linux
sudo apt-get install libxml2-dev
# Mac
brew install libxml2

go get github.com/moovweb/gokogiri

Running tests

go test github.com/moovweb/gokogiri/...

Basic example

package main

import (
  "net/http"
  "io/ioutil"
  "github.com/moovweb/gokogiri"
)

func main() {
  // fetch and read a web page
  resp, _ := http.Get("http://www.google.com")
  page, _ := ioutil.ReadAll(resp.Body)

  // parse the web page
  doc, _ := gokogiri.ParseHtml(page)

  // perform operations on the parsed page -- consult the tests for examples

  // important -- don't forget to free the resources when you're done!
  doc.Free()
}
