Functions

func SanitizeFileName 

func SanitizeFileName(fileName string) string

SanitizeFileName replaces dangerous characters in a string so the return value can be used as a safe file name.

func UnmarshalHTML 

func UnmarshalHTML(v interface{}, s *goquery.Selection, structMap map[string]string) error

UnmarshalHTML declaratively extracts text or attributes to a struct from HTML response using struct tags composed of css selectors. Allowed struct tags:

  • "selector" (required): CSS (goquery) selector of the desired data
  • "attr" (optional): Selects the matching element's attribute's value. Leave it blank or omit to get the text of the element.

Example struct declaration: 

type Nested struct {
	String  string   `selector:"div > p"`
   Classes []string `selector:"li" attr:"class"`
	Struct  *Nested  `selector:"div > div"`
}

Supported types: struct, *struct, string, []string

Types

type AlreadyVisitedError 

type AlreadyVisitedError struct {
	// Destination is the URL that was attempted to be visited.
	// It might not match the URL passed to Visit if redirect
	// was followed.
	Destination *url.URL
}

AlreadyVisitedError is the error type for already visited URLs.

It's returned synchronously by Visit when the URL passed to Visit is already visited.

When already visited URL is encountered after following redirects, this error appears in OnError callback, and if Async mode is not enabled, is also returned by Visit.
