PHP Class Readability\Readability

Differences between the PHP port and the original ------------------------------------------------------ Arc90's Readability is designed to run in the browser. It works on the DOM tree (the parsed HTML) after the page's CSS styles have been applied and Javascript code executed. This PHP port does not run inside a browser. We use PHP's ability to parse HTML to build our DOM tree, but we cannot rely on CSS or Javascript support. As such, the results will not always match Arc90's Readability. (For example, if a web page contains CSS style rules or Javascript code which hide certain HTML elements from display, Arc90's Readability will dismiss those from consideration but our PHP port, unable to understand CSS or Javascript, will not know any better.) Another significant difference is that the aim of Arc90's Readability is to re-present the main content block of a given web page so users can read it more easily in their browsers. Correct identification, clean up, and separation of the content block is only a part of this process. This PHP port is only concerned with this part, it does not include code that relates to presentation in the browser - Arc90 already do that extremely well, and for PDF output there's FiveFilters.org's PDF Newspaper: http://fivefilters.org/pdf-newspaper/. Finally, this class contains methods that might be useful for developers working on HTML document fragments. So without deviating too much from the original code (which I don't want to do because it makes debugging and updating more difficult), I've tried to make it a little more developer friendly. You should be able to use the methods here on existing DOMElement objects without passing an entire HTML document to be parsed.

clean ( DOMElement $e, string $tag )	Clean a node of all elements of type "tag".
cleanConditionally ( DOMElement $e, string $tag )	Clean an element of all tags of type "tag" if they look fishy.
cleanHeaders ( DOMElement $e )	Clean out spurious headers from an Element. Checks things like classnames and link density.
cleanStyles ( DOMElement $e )	Remove the style attribute on every $e and under.
flagIsActive ( integer $flag ) : boolean	Check if the given flag is active.
getCommaCount ( string $text ) : integer	Get comma number for a given text.
getContent ( ) : DOMElement	Get article content element.
getInnerText ( DOMElement $e, boolean $normalizeSpaces = true, boolean $flattenLines = false ) : string	Get the inner text of a node.
getLinkDensity ( DOMElement $e, string $excludeExternal = false ) : integer	Get the density of links as a percentage of the content This is the amount of text that is inside a link divided by the total text in the node.
getTitle ( ) : DOMElement	Get article title element.
getWeight ( DOMElement $e ) : integer	Get an element relative weight.
getWordCount ( string $text ) : integer	Get words number for a given text if words separated by a space.
init ( ) : boolean	Runs readability.
killBreaks ( DOMElement $node )	Remove extraneous break tags from a node.
postProcessContent ( DOMElement $articleContent )	Run any post-process modifications to article content as necessary.
prepArticle ( DOMElement $articleContent )	Prepare the article node for display. Clean out any inline styles, iframes, forms, strip extraneous tags, etc.

Protected Methods

Method	Description
dbg ( $msg )	Debug.
dump_dbg ( )	Dump debug info.
getArticleTitle ( ) : DOMElement	Get the article title as an H1.
grabArticle ( DOMElement $page = null ) : DOMElement | boolean	Using a variety of metrics (content score, classname, element types), find the content that is most likely to be the stuff a user wants to read. Then return it wrapped up in a div.
initializeNode ( DOMElement $node )	Initialize a node with the readability object. Also checks the className/id for special names to add to its score.
prepDocument ( )	Prepare the HTML document for readability to scrape it.
reinitBody ( )	Will recreate previously deleted body property.
