A Ruby gem for extracting microformats2-encoded data from HTML documents.
- Parses microformats2-encoded HTML documents according to the microformats2 parsing specification
- Passes all microformats2 tests from the official test suite¹
- Supports Ruby 3.0 and newer
Note: MicroMicro does not parse Classic Microformats (referred to in the parsing specification as "backcompat root classes" and "backcompat properties" and in vocabulary specifications in the "Parser Compatibility" sections [e.g. h-entry]). To parse documents marked up with Classic Microformats, consider using the official microformats-ruby parser.

Before installing and using MicroMicro, you'll want to have Ruby 3.0 (or newer) installed. If you're using Bundler to manage gem dependencies, add MicroMicro to your project's Gemfile:
gem 'micromicro'…and run bundle install in your shell.
To install the gem manually, run the following in your shell:
gem install micromicroMicroMicro's parse method accepts two arguments: a String of markup and a String representing the URL associated with that markup. The resulting MicroMicro::Document may be converted to a Hash which may be further manipulated using conventional Ruby tooling.
require 'micromicro'
doc = MicroMicro.parse('<div class="h-card">Jason Garber</div>', 'https://sixtwothree.org')
#=> #<MicroMicro::Document items: #<MicroMicro::Collections::ItemsCollection count: 1, members: [#<MicroMicro::Item types: ["h-card"], properties: 1, children: 0>]>, relationships: #<MicroMicro::Collections::RelationshipsCollection count: 0, members: []>>
doc.to_h
#=> { :items => [{ :type => ["h-card"], :properties => { :name => ["Jason Garber"] } }], :rels => {}, :"rel-urls" => {} }See USAGE.md for detailed examples of MicroMicro's features. Additional structured documentation is available on RubyDoc.info.
MicroMicro wouldn't exist without the hard work of everyone involved in the microformats community. Additionally, the comprehensive microformats test suite was invaluable in the development of this Ruby gem.
