Documentation is at http://godoc.org/github.com/iand/microdata

Usage

Example of parsing a string containing HTML:

package main

import (
    "github.com/iand/microdata"
    "net/url"
    "strings"
)

func main() {
    html := `<div itemscope>
        <p>My name is <span itemprop="name">Elizabeth</span>.</p>
    </div>`

    baseUrl, _ := url.Parse("http://example.com/")
    p := microdata.NewParser(strings.NewReader(html), baseUrl)

    data, err := p.Parse()
    if err != nil {
        panic(err)
    }

    println("Name: ", data.Items[0].Properties["name"][0].(string))
}

Extract microdata from a webpage and print the result as JSON

package main

import (
    "bytes"
    "io/ioutil"
    "net/http"
    "net/url"
    "os"

    "github.com/iand/microdata"
)

func main() {

    baseUrl, _ := url.Parse("http://www.designhive.com/blog/using-schemaorg-microdata")

    resp, _ := http.Get(baseUrl.String())
    defer resp.Body.Close()

    html, _ := ioutil.ReadAll(resp.Body)

    p := microdata.NewParser(bytes.NewReader(html), baseUrl)

    data, _ := p.Parse()

    json, _ := data.JSON()
    os.Stdout.Write(json)
}
