#readability Objective-C
This is an Objective-C port of a python port of a ruby port of arc90's readability project.
The goal is that given a URL, an HTML document or a Safari webarchive, it will pull out the main body text and clean it up.
Currently it deviates from the original in various ways:
- Some implementation details were changed for performance reasons, others to speed up porting.
- It does not accept and produce HTML strings directly.
- main.m demonstrates how to use NSXMLDocument objects instead.
- There still are bugs in this port that are a result of porting.
readability-objc uses KBWebArchiver to create a webarchive from the input if necessary. Amongst other things, this enables the automatic encoding detection implemented in WebKit.
KBWebArchiver is included as a submodule. After cloning a main repository, you initialize submodules by typing:
git submodule init
git submodule update
