npm install prescribe
Tiny, forgiving HTML parser in JavaScript. This module started life as code from John Resig and
has evolved and morphed over the years of hardening and use in Krux's postscribe
library. This library doesn't aim for the greatest level of compliance, but rather to be as forgiving
of real-life code encountered in scenarios like ad serving.
If you just want to use the script without installing anything:
``html`
You can include prescribe using npm:
`console`
npm install --save prescribe
This script runs in browsers, so this assumes you're using a module bundler like webpack,
Browserify, JSPM or Rollup to consume CommonJS modules.
`javascript`
import HtmlParser from 'prescribe';
`javascript
define(['prescribe'], function(HtmlParser) {
});
`
`javascript`
var HtmlParser = require('prescribe');
This module is meant to parse any HTML that you can throw at it and do something meaningful, and we've taken care to make sur
that it works on every browser we can get our hands on. We expect it to work on every browser built after 2009. There are over
30 unit tests that run on every commit. Prescribe is thoroughly tested and known to work well in the following browsers:
* Firefox 4+
* Chrome 10+
* Safari 5.0+
* Opera 10.0+
* Internet Explorer 8+
* iPhone/iPad and other WebKit-based browsers
Note that we do not provide any support for Internet Explorer versions earlier than IE8.

The project requires nodejs (>=5.6) and npm (>=3.6.0) for development. It has no runtime dependencies.
Check the code out and install the development dependencies using:
`console`
npm install
To build the code, run
`console`
npm run build
We use ESLint and JSCS to do static analysis of the JavaScript and keep things smelling good. To run both, use:
`console`
npm run lint
Using travis-ci, the Mocha unit tests are run on every commit using PhantomJS to run the tests
with a real browser.
To test the code locally, you can use:
`console`
npm test
To run tests in Test-Driven-Development mode, where the test will be run after every change, use:
`console`
npm run tdd
To run the cross-browser tests, use:
`console``
npm run test:cross-browser
Please either add a failing unit test or include a jsfiddle that distills and reproduces the issue.
