-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora EPEL Update Notification FEDORA-EPEL-2019-fb3b39cbf2 2019-07-10 01:44:07.203568 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : python-beautifulsoup4 Product : Fedora EPEL 7 Version : 4.4.1 Release : 1.el7 URL : http://www.crummy.com/software/BeautifulSoup/ Summary : HTML/XML parser for quick-turnaround applications like screen-scraping Description : Beautiful Soup is a Python HTML/XML parser designed for quick turnaround projects like screen-scraping. Three features make it powerful:
Beautiful Soup won't choke if you give it bad markup.
Beautiful Soup provides a few simple methods and Pythonic idioms for navigating, searching, and modifying a parse tree.
Beautiful Soup automatically converts incoming documents to Unicode and outgoing documents to UTF-8.
Beautiful Soup parses anything you give it.
Valuable data that was once locked up in poorly-designed websites is now within your reach. Projects that would have taken hours take only minutes with Beautiful Soup.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information:
BeautifulSoup 4.4.1 (20150928) ============================== * Fixed a bug that deranged the tree when part of it was removed. Thanks to Eric Weiser for the patch and John Wiseman for a test. [bug=1481520] * Fixed a parse bug with the html5lib tree-builder. Thanks to Roel Kramer for the patch. [bug=1483781] * Improved the implementation of CSS selector grouping. Thanks to Orangain for the patch. [bug=1484543] * Fixed the test_detect_utf8 test so that it works when chardet is installed. [bug=1471359] * Corrected the output of Declaration objects. [bug=1477847] BeautifulSoup 4.4.0 (20150703) ============================== Especially important changes ---------------------------- * Added a warning when you instantiate a BeautifulSoup object without explicitly naming a parser. [bug=1398866] * `__repr__` now returns an ASCII bytestring in Python 2, and a Unicode string in Python 3, instead of a UTF8-encoded bytestring in both versions. In Python 3, `__str__` now returns a Unicode string instead of a bytestring. [bug=1420131] * The `text` argument to the find_* methods is now called `string`, which is more accurate. `text` still works, but `string` is the argument described in the documentation. `text` may eventually change its meaning, but not for a very long time. [bug=1366856] * Changed the way soup objects work under `copy.copy()`. Copying a NavigableString or a Tag will give you a new NavigableString that's equal to the old one but not connected to the parse tree. Patch by Martijn Peters. [bug=1307490] * Started using a standard MIT license. [bug=1294662] * Added a Chinese translation of the documentation by Delong .w. New features ------------ * Introduced the `select_one()` method, which uses a CSS selector but only returns the first match, instead of a list of matches. [bug=1349367] * You can now create a Tag object without specifying a TreeBuilder. Patch by Martijn Pieters. [bug=1307471] * You can now create a NavigableString or a subclass just by invoking the constructor. [bug=1294315] * Added an `exclude_encodings` argument to UnicodeDammit and to the Beautiful Soup constructor, which lets you prohibit the detection of an encoding that you know is wrong. [bug=1469408] * The `select()` method now supports selector grouping. Patch by Francisco Canas [bug=1191917] Bug fixes --------- * Fixed yet another problem that caused the html5lib tree builder to create a disconnected parse tree. [bug=1237763] * Force `object_was_parsed()` to keep the tree intact even when an element from later in the document is moved into place. [bug=1430633] * Fixed yet another bug that caused a disconnected tree when html5lib copied an element from one part of the tree to another. [bug=1270611] * Fixed a bug where `Element.extract()` could create an infinite loop in the remaining tree. * The `select()` method can now find tags whose names contain dashes. Patch by Francisco Canas. [bug=1276211] * The `select()` method can now find tags with attributes whose names contain dashes. Patch by Marek Kapolka. [bug=1304007] * Improved the lxml tree builder's handling of processing instructions. [bug=1294645] * Restored the helpful syntax error that happens when you try to import the Python 2 edition of Beautiful Soup under Python 3. [bug=1213387] * In Python 3.4 and above, set the new convert_charrefs argument to the html.parser constructor to avoid a warning and future failures. Patch by Stefano Revera. [bug=1375721] * The warning when you pass in a filename or URL as markup will now be displayed correctly even if the filename or URL is a Unicode string. [bug=1268888] * If the initial `<html>` tag contains a CDATA list attribute such as 'class', the html5lib tree builder will now turn its value into a list, as it would with any other tag. [bug=1296481] * Fixed an import error in Python 3.5 caused by the removal of the HTMLParseError class. [bug=1420063] * Improved docstring for `encode_contents()` and `decode_contents()`. [bug=1441543] * Fixed a crash in Unicode, Dammit's encoding detector when the name of the encoding itself contained invalid bytes. [bug=1360913] * Improved the exception raised when you call `.unwrap()` or `.replace_with()` on an element that's not attached to a tree. * Raise a NotImplementedError whenever an unsupported CSS pseudoclass is used in `select()`. Previously some cases did not result in a NotImplementedError. * It's now possible to pickle a BeautifulSoup object no matter which tree builder was used to create it. However, the only tree builder that survives the pickling process is the HTMLParserTreeBuilder ('html.parser'). If you unpickle a BeautifulSoup object created with some other tree builder, soup.builder will be None. [bug=1231545] --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
