Methods

Set-ups the any indexing plugins associated with this page processor
public
__construct([array<string|int, mixed> $plugins = [] ][, int $max_description_len = null ][, int $max_links_to_extract = null ][, string $summarizer_option = self::BASIC_SUMMARIZER ]) : mixed
Parameters
- $plugins : array<string|int, mixed> = []
-
an array of indexing plugins which might do further processing on the data handles by this page processor
- $max_description_len : int = null
-
maximal length of a page summary
- $max_links_to_extract : int = null
-
maximum number of links to extract from a single document
- $summarizer_option : string = self::BASIC_SUMMARIZER

Return values
mixed —calculateLang()
Tries to determine the language of the document by looking at the $sample_text and $url provided the language
public
static calculateLang([string $sample_text = null ][, string $url = null ]) : string
Parameters
- $sample_text : string = null
-
sample text to try guess the language from
- $url : string = null
-
url of web-page as a fallback look at the country to figure out language
Return values
string —language tag for guessed language
closeDanglingTags()
If an end of file is reached before closed tags are seen, this methods closes these tags in the correct order.
public
static closeDanglingTags(string &$page) : mixed
Parameters
- $page : string
-
a reference to an xml or html document
Return values
mixed —createThumb()
Used to create an thumbnail file to a thumb folder from an epub,html, or text file provided the image magick command convert exists and the calibre command epub-convert exists.
public
static createThumb(string $folder, string $thumb_folder, string $file_name[, int $width = CTHUMB_DIM ][, int $height = CTHUMB_DIM ]) : mixed
For this method to do anything the constant IMAGE_MAGICK must be set to the path to the "convert" command and the constant CALIBRE must bet set to the path of "ebook-convert". This is very brute force and slow as currently implemented as it creates a PDF from file and then extracts the first page to make a thumb
Parameters
- $folder : string
-
with file in it
- $thumb_folder : string
-
folder to generate
- $file_name : string
-
of file file in $folder
- $width : int = CTHUMB_DIM
-
= width in pixels of thumb
- $height : int = CTHUMB_DIM
-
= height in pixels of thumb
Return values
mixed —dom()

public
static dom(string $page) : object
Parameters
- $page : string
-
a web page
Return values
object —document object
extractHttpHttpsUrls()
Tries to extract http or https links from a string of text.
public
static extractHttpHttpsUrls(string $page) : array<string|int, mixed>
Does this by a very approximate regular expression.
Parameters
- $page : string
-
text string of a document
Return values
array<string|int, mixed> —a set of http or https links that were extracted from the document
getBetweenTags()
Gets the text between two tags in a document starting at the current position.
