Html parser

WIP - work in progress, use at your own risk

A simple and general purpose html/xhtml parser, using Pest.

Features

Parse html & xhtml (not xml processing instructions)
Parse html-documents
Parse html-fragments
Parse empty documents
Parse with the same api for both documents and fragments
Parse custom, non-standard, elements; <cat/>, <Cat/> and <C4-t/> are all ok!
Removes comments
Removes dangling elements

What is it not

It's not a high-performance browser-grade parser
It's not suitable for html validation
It's not a parser that includes element selection or dom manipulation

If your requirements matches any of the above, then you're most likely looking for one of the crates below:

html5ever
kuchiki
scraper
or other crates using the html5ever parser

Examples

Parse html document

```rust use html_parser::Dom;

fn main() {
    let html = r#"
        <!doctype html>
        <html lang="en">
            <head>
                <meta charset="utf-8">
                <title>Html parser</title>
            </head>
            <body>
                <h1 id="a" class="b c">Hello world</h1>
                </h1> <!-- comments & dangling elements are ignored -->
            </body>
        </html>"#;

    assert!(Dom::parse(html).is_ok());
}

```

Parse html fragment

```rust use html_parser::Dom;

fn main() {
    let html = "<div id=cat />";
    assert!(Dom::parse(html).is_ok());
}

```

Print to json

```rust use html_parser::{Dom, Result};

fn main() -> Result<()> {
    let html = "<div id=cat />";
    let json = Dom::parse(html)?.to_json_pretty()?;
    println!("{}", json);
    Ok(())
}

```
