W3C services for python.
Project description
Installation:
pip install py_w3c
Usage:
1. As library -
# import HTML validator
from py_w3c.validators.html.validator import HTMLValidator
# create validator instance
vld = HTMLValidator()
# validate
vld.validate('http://example.com')
# look for errors
print(vld.errors) # list with dicts
# look for warnings
print(vld.warnings)
There are 3 methods of validating:
1. validate url - HTMLValidator().validate(url)
2. validate file - HTMLValidator().validate_file(filename_or_file) # StringIO aware.
3. validate fragment - HTMLValidator().validate_fragment(fragment_string)
You can pass charset while creating validator instance. This will force validator to use passed charset for validation.
Example (python).
vld = HTMLValidator(charset='utf-8')
# now validator uses utf-8 charset ignoring charset in the document content
vld.validate('http://example.com')
2. As standalone script - (not very usefull right now)
Now only URL validating is allowed for standalone script.
python setup.py test
This command will install tox and run tests for py2.7 and py3.4.
To run test for one python version use (py2.7 for example):
$ python setup.py test -a "-epy27"
pip install py_w3c
