Infobox parsing module

[dijs]

I am the developer of wikijs.

I have a favor to ask, I love the problem this module is solving... Is there any way you could export the parser of this module so I could use JUST the parsing functionality?

I already have the infobox request part, but I would like to use your library for the parsing.

Thanks,

Hi @dijs ,

Thanks for your suggestion, if you only want the parser, I can change the interface of current lib like this:

var wikiParser = require('wiki-infobox-parser');

/* Previous interface */
wikiParser('france', function(err, result) {
  if (err) {
    console.error(err.message);
  } else {
    console.log(result);
  }
});

/* New interface */
let config = {
  'keyword': 'france',
  'wikitext': '=== A sample of original wiki text. ==='
};
/* If wikitext is not null, I will use the text directly without calling Wiki API. */
wikiParser(config, function(err, result) {
  if (err) {
    console.error(err.message);
  } else {
    console.log(result);
  }
});

Does this work for you?

I was hoping to not have the request dependency. Since this will be
bundled. Is there any way the parsing code can be a completely different
module?

So, a follow up to this. My wikijs is not able to be bundled as a browser app b/c your library uses request. That is why I was hoping the parser itself could be it's own module. If you can't, no problem. I can externalize it. And if I do that, do you mind if I use your code?

Hi @dijs, sorry for the late reply, I'm OOO this week. I can extract the parser out of this lib, hopefully I can publish it tomorrow. By the way, if you want to use the code directly, feel free to play with it :D

Hi @dijs , I've publish the first version of the parser, you can check it out here: + wiki-infobox-parser-core@0.0.1. More tests will be added.

Thank you so much!

Awesome. I threw it in here: dijs/wiki#23

Could we not always console log when parsing? Or maybe use the debug module if necessary.

Thanks @dijs , I will fix them as soon as possible.
