- Only Suggests python-html5lib and python-lxml (instead of Requires
them). Both are not striclty needed. See
https://www.crummy.com/software/BeautifulSoup/bs4/doc/#installing-a-parser
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Jul 5 06:28:31 UTC 2017 - dmueller@suse.com
- update to 4.6.0:
* Added the `Tag.get_attribute_list` method, which acts like `Tag.get` for
getting the value of an attribute, but which always returns a list,
whether or not the attribute is a multi-value attribute. [bug=1678589]
* Improved the handling of empty-element tags like <br> when using the
html.parser parser. [bug=1676935]
* HTML parsers treat all HTML4 and HTML5 empty element tags (aka void
element tags) correctly. [bug=1656909]
* Namespace prefix is preserved when an XML tag is copied. Thanks
to Vikas for a patch and test. [bug=1685172]
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon May 22 13:25:06 UTC 2017 - aloisio@gmx.com
- Fixed failing tests in python3
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Sat Apr 8 17:35:17 UTC 2017 - aloisio@gmx.com
- update to version 4.5.3:
* Fixed foster parenting when html5lib is the tree builder. Thanks
to Geoffrey Sneddon for a patch and test.
* Fixed yet another problem that caused the html5lib tree builder to
create a disconnected parse tree. [bug=1629825]
changes from version 4.5.2:
* Apart from the version number, this release is identical to
4.5.3. Due to user error, it could not be completely uploaded to
PyPI. Use 4.5.3 instead.
- Converted to single-spec
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Sep 1 19:20:36 UTC 2016 - tbechtold@suse.com
- Relax BuildRequires for python-Sphinx
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Sep 1 10:26:24 UTC 2016 - tbechtold@suse.com
- update to 4.5.1:
* Fixed a crash when passing Unicode markup that contained a
processing instruction into the lxml HTML parser on Python
3. [bug=1608048]
* Beautiful Soup is no longer compatible with Python 2.6. This
actually happened a few releases ago, but it's now official.
* Beautiful Soup will now work with versions of html5lib greater than
0.99999999. [bug=1603299]
* If a search against each individual value of a multi-valued
attribute fails, the search will be run one final time against the
complete attribute value considered as a single string. That is, if
a tag has class="foo bar" and neither "foo" nor "bar" matches, but
"foo bar" does, the tag is now considered a match.
This happened in previous versions, but only when the value being
searched for was a string. Now it also works when that value is
a regular expression, a list of strings, etc. [bug=1476868]
* Fixed a bug that deranged the tree when a whitespace element was
reparented into a tag that contained an identical whitespace
element. [bug=1505351]
* Added support for CSS selector values that contain quoted spaces,
such as tag[style="display: foo"]. [bug=1540588]
* Corrected handling of XML processing instructions. [bug=1504393]
* Corrected an encoding error that happened when a BeautifulSoup
object was copied. [bug=1554439]
* The contents of <textarea> tags will no longer be modified when the
tree is prettified. [bug=1555829]
* When a BeautifulSoup object is pickled but its tree builder cannot
be pickled, its .builder attribute is set to None instead of being
destroyed. This avoids a performance problem once the object is
unpickled. [bug=1523629]
* Specify the file and line number when warning about a
BeautifulSoup object being instantiated without a parser being
specified. [bug=1574647]
* The `limit` argument to `select()` now works correctly, though it's
not implemented very efficiently. [bug=1520530]
* Fixed a Python 3 ByteWarning when a URL was passed in as though it
were markup. Thanks to James Salter for a patch and
test. [bug=1533762]
* We don't run the check for a filename passed in as markup if the
'filename' contains a less-than character; the less-than character
indicates it's most likely a very small document. [bug=1577864]
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Sun Nov 15 16:31:46 UTC 2015 - idonmez@suse.com
- Update to version 4.4.1
* 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. lp#1481520
* Fixed a parse bug with the html5lib tree-builder. Thanks to Roel
Kramer for the patch. lp#1483781
* Improved the implementation of CSS selector grouping. Thanks to
Orangain for the patch. lp#1484543
* Fixed the test_detect_utf8 test so that it works when chardet is
installed. lp#1471359
* Corrected the output of Declaration objects. lp#1477847
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Jul 27 18:54:20 UTC 2015 - aloisio@gmx.com
- update to 4.4.0
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]

Tue Oct 22 13:00:00 UTC 2013 - toddrme2178@gmail.com
- update to 4.3.2
* Fixed a bug in which short Unicode input was improperly encoded to
ASCII when checking whether or not it was the name of a file on
disk. [bug=1227016]
* Fixed a crash when a short input contains data not valid in
filenames. [bug=1232604]
* Fixed a bug that caused Unicode data put into UnicodeDammit to
return None instead of the original data. [bug=1214983]
* Combined two tests to stop a spurious test failure when tests are
run by nosetests. [bug=1212445]
- update to 4.3.1
* Fixed yet another problem with the html5lib tree builder, caused by
html5lib's tendency to rearrange the tree during
parsing. [bug=1189267]
* Fixed a bug that caused the optimized version of find_all() to
return nothing. [bug=1212655]
- update to 4.3.0
* Instead of converting incoming data to Unicode and feeding it to the
lxml tree builder in chunks, Beautiful Soup now makes successive
guesses at the encoding of the incoming data, and tells lxml to
parse the data as that encoding. Giving lxml more control over the
parsing process improves performance and avoids a number of bugs and
issues with the lxml parser which had previously required elaborate
workarounds:
- An issue in which lxml refuses to parse Unicode strings on some
systems. [bug=1180527]
- A returning bug that truncated documents longer than a (very
small) size. [bug=963880]
- A returning bug in which extra spaces were added to a document if
the document defined a charset other than UTF-8. [bug=972466]
This required a major overhaul of the tree builder architecture. If
you wrote your own tree builder and didn't tell me, you'll need to
modify your prepare_markup() method.
* The UnicodeDammit code that makes guesses at encodings has been
split into its own class, EncodingDetector. A lot of apparently
redundant code has been removed from Unicode, Dammit, and some
undocumented features have also been removed.
* Beautiful Soup will issue a warning if instead of markup you pass it
a URL or the name of a file on disk (a common beginner's mistake).
* A number of optimizations improve the performance of the lxml tree
builder by about 33%, the html.parser tree builder by about 20%, and
the html5lib tree builder by about 15%.
* All find_all calls should now return a ResultSet object. Patch by
Aaron DeVore. [bug=1194034]

- Update upstream URL
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Jun 25 11:52:34 UTC 2013 - dmueller@suse.com
- update to 4.2.1:
* The default XML formatter will now replace ampersands even if they
appear to be part of entities. That is, "<" will become
"&lt;". The old code was left over from Beautiful Soup 3, which
didn't always turn entities into Unicode characters.
If you really want the old behavior (maybe because you add new
strings to the tree, those strings include entities, and you want
the formatter to leave them alone on output), it can be found in
EntitySubstitution.substitute_xml_containing_entities(). [bug=1182183]
* Gave new_string() the ability to create subclasses of
NavigableString. [bug=1181986]
* Fixed another bug by which the html5lib tree builder could create a
disconnected tree. [bug=1182089]
* The .previous_element of a BeautifulSoup object is now always None,
not the last element to be parsed. [bug=1182089]
* Fixed test failures when lxml is not installed. [bug=1181589]
* html5lib now supports Python 3. Fixed some Python 2-specific
code in the html5lib test suite. [bug=1181624]
* The html.parser treebuilder can now handle numeric attributes in
text when the hexidecimal name of the attribute starts with a
capital X. Patch by Tim Shirley. [bug=1186242]
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Jun 10 20:34:00 UTC 2013 - dmueller@suse.com
- disable tests on SLE_11, fail due to too old python-lxml
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Sat May 18 13:30:00 UTC 2013 - toddrme2178@gmail.com
- Update to 4.2.0
* The Tag.select() method now supports a much wider variety of CSS
selectors.
- Added support for the adjacent sibling combinator (+) and the
general sibling combinator (~). Tests by "liquider". [bug=1082144]
- The combinators (>, +, and ~) can now combine with any supported
selector, not just one that selects based on tag name.
- Added limited support for the "nth-of-type" pseudo-class. Code
by Sven Slootweg. [bug=1109952]
* The BeautifulSoup class is now aliased to "_s" and "_soup", making
it quicker to type the import statement in an interactive session
The alias may change in the future, so don't use this in code you're
going to run more than once.
* Added the 'diagnose' submodule, which includes several useful
functions for reporting problems and doing tech support.
- diagnose(data) tries the given markup on every installed parser,
reporting exceptions and displaying successes. If a parser is not
installed, diagnose() mentions this fact.
- lxml_trace(data, html=True) runs the given markup through lxml's
XML parser or HTML parser, and prints out the parser events as
they happen. This helps you quickly determine whether a given
problem occurs in lxml code or Beautiful Soup code.
- htmlparser_trace(data) is the same thing, but for Python's
built-in HTMLParser class.
* In an HTML document, the contents of a <script> or <style> tag will
no longer undergo entity substitution by default. XML documents work
the same way they did before. [bug=1085953]
* Methods like get_text() and properties like .strings now only give
you strings that are visible in the document--no comments or
processing commands. [bug=1050164]
* The prettify() method now leaves the contents of <pre> tags
alone. [bug=1095654]
* Fix a bug in the html5lib treebuilder which sometimes created
disconnected trees. [bug=1039527]
* Fix a bug in the lxml treebuilder which crashed when a tag included
an attribute from the predefined "xml:" namespace. [bug=1065617]
* Fix a bug by which keyword arguments to find_parent() were not
being passed on. [bug=1126734]
* Stop a crash when unwisely messing with a tag that's been
decomposed. [bug=1097699]
* Now that lxml's segfault on invalid doctype has been fixed, fixed a
corresponding problem on the Beautiful Soup end that was previously
invisible. [bug=984936]
* Fixed an exception when an overspecified CSS selector didn't match
anything. Code by Stefaan Lippens. [bug=1168167]
