h2j 0.1.2

Convert HTML to JSON with clean keys and CSS-like classes

h2j

Lightweight HTML → JSON converter for Python, forked from html-to-json but with a cleaner and more compact style.

✨ Features

• Attributes stored as _attrs
• Text values stored as _val (single) or _vals (multiple)
• Class attributes normalized:
  "a b c" → "a.b.c"
• Preserves spacing in text nodes
• 100% passing tests ✅

📦 Install

For now, install from GitHub:

pip install git+https://github.com/SimBeSim/h2j.git

(PyPI release coming soon!)

🚀 Usage

import h2j

html = '<div class="a b c" id="x">Hello <b>World</b></div>'
out = h2j.convert(html, capture_element_attributes=True)
print(out)

Output:

{
  'div': [
    {
      '_attrs': {'class': 'a.b.c', 'id': 'x'},
      '_val': 'Hello ',
      'b': [{'_val': 'World'}]
    }
  ]
}
