philss/floki

Floki is an Elixir library for parsing and querying HTML documents. It provides a unified API for parsing HTML using multiple backends (Mochiweb, Html5ever, and FastHTML) and supports CSS-like selectors for traversing and manipulating the HTML tree structure. The system includes comprehensive test coverage and benchmarking tools to ensure compliance with HTML5 specifications and performance optimization.

The Floki library introduced explicit parsing functions and an options-based API to replace the previous parse/1 function, while expanding test coverage across multiple HTML parsers. This period also standardized project governance and updated dependencies to support modern Elixir versions.

The project focused on a major internal refactoring of the Floki library, introducing a new HTML tree structure and optimized text extraction for better performance. The CSS selector engine was completely rewritten into modular components to support complex selectors, while the underlying Mochiweb HTML parser and selector lexer were integrated to support these changes.

The project implemented a new HTML5-compliant tokenizer and multiple HTML parser backends, including FastHTML, Html5ever, and Mochiweb. This involved replacing previous parsing logic with a spec-compliant state machine and adding comprehensive test coverage and benchmarking scripts.
