HTML Link Parser

Details

A package that makes it easy to parse an HTML file and extract all of the links (<a href="">...</a> tags). For each link we return a data structure that includes both the href, as well as the text inside the link. Any HTML inside of the link can be stripped out, along with any extra whitespace including newlines, back-to-back spaces, etc.

Links will be nested in different HTML elements, an example is HTML similar to code below.

<a href="/dog">
  <span>Something in a span</span>
  Text not in a span
  <b>Bold text!</b>
</a>

Expected Output:

Link{
  Href: "/dog",
  Text: "Something in a span Text not in a span Bold text!",
}

Tests

Set up tests in link_test.go and run the following code:

go test -v
