HTML5 Validator 2
=================

    ``html5validator`` is a command line tool that tests files for
    HTML5 validity. This was written with static site generators like
    `Jekyll <http://jekyllrb.com/>`_ and
    `Pelican <http://blog.getpelican.com/>`_ in mind. Dynamic html content
    (for example from JS template engines) can be crawled
    (e.g. with `localcrawl <https://github.com/svenkreiss/localcrawl>`_)
    and then validated.

Install
-------

This module requires Python 3.12 or 3.13 and Java 8 (``openjdk8`` or ``oraclejdk8``).
Install with ``uv add html5validator2`` and run with

.. code-block:: bash

    html5validator --root _build/

to validate all html files in the ``_build`` directory.
Run ``html5validator --help`` to see the list of command line options::

    usage: html5validator [-h] [--root ROOT] [--match MATCH [MATCH ...]]
                          [--blacklist [BLACKLIST ...]] [--show-warnings]
                          [--no-langdetect] [--no-vnu-stdout] [--no-asciiquotes]
                          [--format {gnu,xml,json,text}]
                          [--ignore [IGNORE ...]] [--ignore-re [IGNORE_RE ...]]
                          [--config CONFIG] [-l] [-ll] [-lll] [--log LOG]
                          [--log-file LOG_FILE] [--version]
                          [files ...]

    [v2.0.1] Command line tool for HTML5 validation. Return code is 0 for valid
    HTML5. Arguments that are unknown to html5validator
    are passed as arguments to `vnu.jar`.

    positional arguments:
      files                 specify files to check

    optional arguments:
      -h, --help            show this help message and exit
      --root ROOT           start directory to search for files to validate
      --match MATCH [MATCH ...]
                            match file pattern in search (default: "*.html" or
                            "*.html *.css" if --also-check-css is used)
      --blacklist [BLACKLIST ...]
                            directory names to skip in search
      --show-warnings       show warnings and count them as errors
      --no-langdetect       disable language detection
      --no-vnu-stdout       do not use --stdout with vnu.jar
      --no-asciiquotes      do not use --asciiquotes with vnu.jar
      --format {gnu,xml,json,text}
                            output format
      --ignore [IGNORE ...]
                            ignore messages containing the given strings
      --ignore-re [IGNORE_RE ...]
                            regular expression of messages to ignore
      --config CONFIG       Path to a config file for options
      -l                    run on larger files: sets Java stack size to 2048k
      -ll                   run on larger files: sets Java stack size to 8192k
      -lll                  run on larger files: sets Java stack size to 32768k
      --log LOG             log level: DEBUG, INFO or WARNING (default: WARNING)
      --log-file LOG_FILE   Name for log file. If no name supplied then no log
                            file will be created
      --version             show program's version number and exit

This module uses the `validator.nu backend <https://github.com/validator/validator.github.io>`_
which is written in Java. Therefore, a Java Runtime Environment must be
available on your system. Since version 0.2, Java 8 is required.


Checking CSS/SVG
----------------

.. code-block:: bash

    html5validator --root _build/ --also-check-css

    # checking only CSS
    html5validator --root _build/ --skip-non-css

Replace ``css`` with ``svg`` for similar behavior with SVG files.


Technical Notes
---------------

* If you are using grunt already, maybe consider using the
  `grunt-html <https://github.com/jzaefferer/grunt-html>`_ plugin for grunt instead.
* Use ``--ignore-re 'Attribute "ng-[a-z-]+" not allowed'`` with angular.js apps.
* Example with multiple ignores: ``html5validator --root tests/multiple_ignores/ --ignore-re 'Attribute "ng-[a-z-]+" not allowed' 'Start tag seen without seeing a doctype first'``
