This was broken by introducing the process of lazy decoding of XML/HTML
entities. The new setup works similar to how XML::Text#text decodes any
entities that may be present.
Fixes#91
When querying an XML document that explicitly defines the default XML
namespace the XPath evaluator now correctly matches all nodes within
that namespace if no namespace prefix is given in the query. Previously
this would always return an empty set.
Removing this makes the process of parsing larger XML documents a bit faster.
The downside is that NodeSet#initialize will no longer filter out duplicate
nodes, though this is not something Oga itself relies upon.
Methods such as NodeSet#push still do ignore elements already present.
This was utterly broken, mainly due to me overlooking it. There are now 2 new
callbacks to handle this properly:
* on_attribute: to handle a single attribute/value pair
* on_attributes: to handle a collection of attributes (as returned by
on_attribute)
By default on_attribut returns a Hash, on_attributes in turn merges all
attribute hashes into a single one. This ensures that on_element _actually_
receives the attributes as a Hash, instead of an Array with random
nil/XML::Attribute values.
Instead of decoding entities in the lexer we'll do this whenever XML::Text#text
is called. This removes the overhead from the parsing phase and ensures the
process is only triggered when actually needed. Note that calling #to_xml and/or
the #inspect methods on a Text (or parent) instance will also trigger the entity
conversion process.
The new entity decoding API supports both regular entities (e.g. &) as well
as codepoint based entities (both regular and hexadecimal codepoints).
To allow safe read-only access to Text instances from multiple threads a mutex
is used. This mutex ensures that only 1 thread can trigger the conversion
process.
Fixes#68
This basically re-applies the technique used for HTML <script> tags. With this
extra addition I decided to rename/normalize a few things so it's easier to add
any extra tags in the future. One downside of this setup is that the following
will not be parsed by Oga:
<style>
</script>
</style>
The same applies to script tags containing a literal </style> tag. Since this
particular case is rather unlikely to occur I'm OK with not supporting it as it
_does_ simplify the lexer quite a bit.
Fixes#80
This keeps things consistent with the general testing guidelines in the Ruby
community. This in turn should hopefully make my life easier as I don't have to
tell people to use this rather odd stlye I was using before.
This changes the behaviour of after_element when parsing documents using the SAX
parsing API. Previously it would always receive a nil argument, which is kinda
pointless. This commit changes that by making sure it receives a namespace name
(if any) and the element name.
This fixes#54.
The old XPath "position() = 1" would work in Nokogiri due to the way they
retrieve descendants. In Oga however this would simply always return the first
node.
To fix this Oga now counts the amount of preceding siblings that match the same
full name.
This means that "foo[1]" uses this AST:
(predicate (test nil "foo") (int 1))
Instead of this AST:
(test nil "foo" (int 1))
This makes it easier for the XPath evaluator to process predicates correctly.
This is the first spec of many that will be re-written. Eventually this will
remove the need of the shared examples as well as removing lots of code
duplication and odd context blocks.
This method can be used to compare two NodeSet instances. By using
XML::NodeSet#equal_nodes?() the need for exposing the "nodes" instance variable
is also removed.
This expression could be used to get all elements that _don't_ have any
namespace. The problem is that this can't be expressed as just a node test,
instead the resulting XPath would have to look something like the following:
X[local-name() = name()]
However, since the XPath predicates are already created for pseudo classes and
such, also injecting the above into it would be a real big pain. As such I've
decided not to support it.
Instead of using "descendant-or-self" Oga will use "descendant". This ensures
that expressions such as "foo *" don't return a set also including the "foo"
element.
Nokogiri solves this problem in a somewhat different way by using //foo//* for
the CSS expression "foo *". While this works in Nokogiri the expression
"descendant-or-self::node()" is slow as a snail in Oga (due to its nature of
retrieving _all_ nodes first). By using "descendant" we can work around this
problem.
When running XPath queries such as "self::node()" the result should be a set
containing the document itself. This in turn fixes expressions such as
descendant-or-self::node()/a.
These currently fail due to the child:: selector not working entirely as it
should be. Consider the following XML:
<a><b><b><c class="x"></c></b></b></a>
And the following XPath:
descendant-or-self::node()/a
In Nokogiri/libxml this will return a node set containing the <a> node. In Oga
however this will return an empty node set. This will require some further
investigation to see what exactly is going on, and in particular what is the
correct behaviour.
This removes parsing support for selectors such as :nth-child(-n-6). According
to the CSS spec this isn't valid anyway (confirmed by testing it in Chromium).
As a result there's no point in supporting it in any way.
When lexing multi-line strings everything used to work fine as long as the input
were to be read as a whole. However, when using an IO instance all hell would
break loose. Due to the lexer reading IO instances on a per line basis,
sometimes Ragel would end up setting "ts" to NULL. For example, the following
input would break the lexer:
<foo class="\nbar" />
Due to the input being read per line, the following data would be sent to the
lexer:
<foo class="\n
bar" />
This would result in different (or NULL) pointers being used for building a
string, in turn resulting in memory allocation errors.
To work around this the string lexing setup has been broken into separate
machines for single and double quoted strings. The tokens used have also been
changed so that instead of just "T_STRING" there are now the following tokens:
* T_STRING_SQUOTE
* T_STRING_DQUOTE
* T_STRING_BODY
A string can have multiple T_STRING_BODY tokens (= multi-line strings, only the
case for IO inputs). These strings are stitched back together by the parser.
This fixes#58.
Processing of this axis along with a predicate wouldn't quite work out. Even if
the predicate returned false the node would still be matched (which should not
be the case).
Previously input such as "x > y" would result in the following token sequences:
T_IDENT, T_CHILD, T_IDENT
This commit changes this to the following:
T_IDENT, T_SPACE, T_CHILD, T_IDENT
This allows the parser to use T_SPACE as a terminal token, this in turn prevents
around 16 shift/reduce conflicts from arising.
This does mean that input such as " > y" or " x > y" is now invalid. This
however can be solved by simply _not_ adding leading/trailing whitespace to CSS
queries.
The new setup will not involve a separate transformation stage, instead the CSS
parser will directly emit an XPath AST. This reduces the overhead needed for
parsing/evaluating CSS selectors while also simplifying the code. The downside
is that I basically have to re-write 80% of the parser.
This uses stricter (and more correct) rules in both the lexer and the parser.
The resulting AST has also received a small rework to make it more compact and
less confusing.
This includes support for the crazy 2n+1 syntax you can use with selectors such
as :nth-child().
CSS selectors: doing what XPath already does using an even crazier syntax,
because screw you.
When lexing XML entities such as & and < these sequences are now
converted into their "actual" forms. In turn, Oga::XML::Text#to_xml ensures they
are encoded when the method is called.
Performance wise this puts some strain on the lexer, for every T_TEXT/T_STRING
node now potentially has to have its content modified. In the benchmark
xml/lexer/string_average_bench.rb the average processing time is now about the
same as before the improvements made in
8db77c0a09. I was hoping that the lexer would
still be a bit faster, but alas this is not the case. Doing this in native code
would be a nightmare as C doesn't have a proper string replacement function. I'm
not old/sadistic enough to write on myself just yet.
This fixes#49
This was a gimmick in the first place. It doesn't work well with IO instances
(= requires re-reading of the input), the code was too complex and it wasn't
that useful in the end. Lets just get rid of it.
This fixes#53.
Instead of using `namespace.name` lets just use `namespace_name`. This fixes the
problem of serializing attributes where the namespace prefix is "xmlns" as the
namespace for this isn't registered by default.
This fixes#47.
This API is a little bit dodgy (similar to Nokogiri's API) due to the use of
separate parser and handler classes. This is done to ensure that the return
values of callback methods (e.g. on_element) aren't used by Racc for building
AST trees. This also ensures that whatever variables are set by the handler
don't conflict with any variables of the parser.
This fixes#42.
