HTML Link Parser

Exercise details

The goal of exercise is to create a package that makes it easy to parse an HTML file and extract all of the links (<a href="">...</a> tags). For each extracted link there should be a data structure returned that includes both the href, as well as the text inside the link. Any HTML inside of the link can be stripped out, along with any extra whitespace including newlines, back-to-back spaces, etc. Links are nested in different HTML elements.

<a href="/dog">
  <span>Something in a span</span>
  Text not in a span
  <b>Bold text!</b>
</a>

In situations like these we want to get output like:

Link{
  Href: "/dog",
  Text: "Something in a span Text not in a span Bold text!",
}

Notes

1. Use the x/net/html package

2. Ignore nested links

Ignore any links nested inside of another link. Eg with following HTML:

<a href="#">
  Something here <a href="/dog">nested dog link</a>
</a>
