Method Summary

void	getOutlinks(URL base, ArrayList outlinks, Node node) This method finds all anchors below the supplied DOM node, and creates appropriate Outlink records for each (relative to the supplied base URL), and adds them to the outlinks ArrayList.
void	getText(StringBuffer sb, Node node) This is a convinience method, equivalent to getText(sb, node, false).
boolean	getTitle(StringBuffer sb, Node node) This method takes a StringBuffer and a DOM Node, and will append the content text found beneath the first title node to the StringBuffer.
void	setConf(Configuration conf)

Constructor Detail

DOMContentUtils

public DOMContentUtils(Configuration conf)

Method Detail

setConf

public void setConf(Configuration conf)

getText

public void getText(StringBuffer sb,
                    Node node)

This is a convinience method, equivalent to getText(sb, node, false).

getTitle

public boolean getTitle(StringBuffer sb,
                        Node node)

This method takes a StringBuffer and a DOM Node, and will append the content text found beneath the first title node to the StringBuffer.

Returns:

true if a title node was found, false otherwise

getOutlinks

public void getOutlinks(URL base,
                        ArrayList outlinks,
                        Node node)

This method finds all anchors below the supplied DOM node, and creates appropriate Outlink records for each (relative to the supplied base URL), and adds them to the outlinks ArrayList.

Links without inner structure (tags, text, etc) are discarded, as are links which contain only single nested links and empty text nodes (this is a common DOM-fixup artifact, at least with nekohtml).
