object-scan allows traversal of complex javascript objects to find specific keys.
In web scraping, it's useful for parsing large, nested JSON datasets for specific datafields. object-scan can be used to recursively find any key in any object structure:
import objectScan from 'object-scan';
const haystack = { a: { b: { c: 'd' }, e: { f: 'g' } } };
objectScan(['a.*.f'], { joined: true })(haystack);
// => [ 'a.e.f' ]
xhtml2pdf is a Python library that allows you to convert HTML and CSS documents to PDF files. It is built on top of ReportLab, a powerful PDF generation library for Python.
xhtml2pdf makes it easy to convert HTML and CSS documents to PDF by using ReportLab's powerful layout engine to handle the rendering of the document.
The library supports a wide variety of HTML and CSS features, including tables, lists, images, and links. It also supports several popular CSS frameworks such as Bootstrap and Foundation.
To use xhtml2pdf, you first need to install it via pip by running `pip install xhtml2pdf``. Once it is installed, you can use the xhtml2pdf.pisa.pisaDocument() function to convert an HTML file to a PDF.
Example Use
const objectScan = require('object-scan');
const myNestedObject = {
level1: {
level2: {
level3: {
myTargetKey: 'value',
},
},
},
};
const searchTerm = 'myTargetKey';
const result = objectScan([`**.${searchTerm}`], { joined: false })(myNestedObject);
console.log(result);
