html-table-data-extractor

Extract data from a table with headers and rows of data:

Header 1	Header 2
Data 1	Data 2
Data 3	Data 4

This library has one method - filter() - which returns filtered data from a defined array of filters that run in sequence.

Filters:

• unique
• match
• compare
• sequence (sequence of the above)

We need more documentation!

Descripiton:

• A filter is an array of test to run on the table. The data from the first test will be passed to the next test until all test hav passed.
• data and count will be returned.
• If the unique filter is used no data is returned at the moment.
• type of filter = match | unique | compare
• header = name of the header to apply filter on
• regexp = regular expression when match is used
• condition = conditional test: <= | >= | < | > | = | != (!= is not yet implemented)

Sample filter:

[
	{
		"type": "match",
		"header": "Header 1",
		"regexp": "^Data (1|3)$"
	},
	{
		"type": "compare",
		"header": "Header 2",
		"condition": "<=",
		"value": "Data 2"
	},
	{
		"type": "unique",
		"header": "Header 1"
	}
]
