NAME

MediaWiki::CleanupHTML - cleanup the MediaWiki-generated HTML from MediaWiki embellishments.

VERSION

version 0.0.6

SYNOPSIS

use MediaWiki::CleanupHTML;

open my $fh, '<:encoding(UTF-8)', $filename
    or die "Cannot open '$filename' - $!";

my $cleaner = MediaWiki::CleanupHTML->new({ fh => $fh });

open my $out_fh, '>:encoding(UTF-8)', $processed_filename
    or die "Cannot open '$processed_filename' for output - $!";

$cleaner->print_into_fh($out_fh);

$cleaner->destroy_resources();

DESCRIPTION

The HTML rendered on MediaWiki pages is full of MediaWiki-specific embellishments such as edit sections. This module attempts to clean it up and return a more straightforward HTML. Note that the HTML returned by MediaWiki APIs may not always available (for instance if the wiki is down), so this module should be considered a fallback.

SUBROUTINES/METHODS

MediaWiki::CleanupHTML->new({fh => $fh})

The constructor - accepts the filehandle from which to read the XHTML.

$cleaner->print_into_fh($fh)

Output to a filehandle. The filehandle should be able to process UTF-8 output.

$cleaner->destroy_resources()

Destroy the allocated resources (of the HTML::TreeBuilder tree, etc.). Must be called before destruction.
