PrimerParser

```
public final class PrimerParser

                    
```
A very simple DOM parser
A collection of methods for extracting content from DOM trees.
This class holds a few utility methods for pulling content out of DOM nodes, such as getLiveLinks, getPageText, etc.

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
`final ImmutableConfig`	`getConf()`
`final Unit`	`detectEncoding(WebPage page)`
`final ParseContext`	`parseHTMLDocument(WebPage page)`
`final Boolean`	`getPageText(StringBuilder sb, Node root, Boolean abortOnNestedAnchors)`	This method takes a StringBuilder and a DOM Node, and will append all the content text found beneath the DOM node to the `StringBuilder`.
`final Unit`	`getPageText(StringBuilder sb, Node root)`	This is a convinience method, equivalent to .
`final String`	`getPageText(Node root)`
`final String`	`getPageTitle(Node root)`
`final Map<String, String>`	`getMetadata(Node root)`
`final URL`	`getBaseURLFromTag(Node root)`	If Node contains a BASE tag then it's HREF is returned.
`final Set<HyperlinkPersistable>`	`collectLinks(URL base, Node root)`	This method finds all anchors below the supplied DOM `root`, and creates appropriate HyperlinkPersistable records for each (relative to the supplied `base` URL), and adds them to the `outlinks`ArrayList.
`final Set<HyperlinkPersistable>`	`collectLinks(URL base, Node root, CrawlFilters crawlFilters)`
`final Set<HyperlinkPersistable>`	`collectLinks(URL base, Set<HyperlinkPersistable> hyperlinks, Node root, CrawlFilters crawlFilters)`

PrimerParser(ImmutableConfig conf)
```
- Method Detail
  - getConf
```
 final ImmutableConfig getConf()
```
  - detectEncoding
```
 final Unit detectEncoding(WebPage page)
```
  - parseHTMLDocument
```
 final ParseContext parseHTMLDocument(WebPage page)
```
  - getPageText
```
 final Boolean getPageText(StringBuilder sb, Node root, Boolean abortOnNestedAnchors)
```
    This method takes a StringBuilder and a DOM Node, and will append all the content text found beneath the DOM node to the StringBuilder.
    If abortOnNestedAnchors is true, DOM traversal will be aborted and the StringBuffer will not contain any text encountered after a nested anchor is found.
  - getPageText
```
 final Unit getPageText(StringBuilder sb, Node root)
```
    This is a convinience method, equivalent to .getPageText.
  - getPageText
```
 final String getPageText(Node root)
```
  - getPageTitle
```
 final String getPageTitle(Node root)
```
  - getMetadata
```
 final Map<String, String> getMetadata(Node root)
```
  - getBaseURLFromTag
```
 final URL getBaseURLFromTag(Node root)
```
    If Node contains a BASE tag then it's HREF is returned.
  - collectLinks
```
 final Set<HyperlinkPersistable> collectLinks(URL base, Node root)
```
    This method finds all anchors below the supplied DOM root, and creates appropriate HyperlinkPersistable records for each (relative to the supplied base URL), and adds them to the outlinksArrayList.
    Links without inner structure (tags, text, etc) are discarded, as are links which contain only single nested links and empty text nodes (this is a common DOM-fixup artifact, at least with nekohtml).
  - collectLinks
```
 final Set<HyperlinkPersistable> collectLinks(URL base, Node root, CrawlFilters crawlFilters)
```
  - collectLinks
```
 final Set<HyperlinkPersistable> collectLinks(URL base, Set<HyperlinkPersistable> hyperlinks, Node root, CrawlFilters crawlFilters)
```
