Simple processor for replacing elements in html using cheerio.

npm install dom-processor --save

Create a new instance using a config-loader and call the process-method with the content to be processed.

If the loading of your replacement-configurations depends on the currently processed file make sure to call process with the path as second argument.

var configLoader = require('./config-loader');
var DomProcessor = require('dom-processor');

var processor = new DomProcessor(configLoader);

var result = processor.process('<div></div>', 'path/to/file');

console.log(result);

An object with a load-method which is called with the path of the currently processed file and additional load configurations for cheerio.

The load-method returns an Array of replacement-configurations. Each replacement has two properties:

• selector: Selector of the elements to be replaced.
• replace: Function to create and return the new element. It is called with matching element as first argument.

The loadConfigurations-object cointains configurations for cheerio

function load(filePath) {
  return [{
    selector: 'div',
    replace: function($element) {
      return '<span></span>';
    }
  }];
}

let loadConfigurations = { decodeEntities: false };

module.exports = {
  load: load,
  loadConfigurations: loadConfigurations
};
