CSS Parser – Getting Started with CSSParser

Output Formatting

Starting with version 0.9.16 CSSParser includes limited support of output formatting. At the moment the formatter uses a fixed layout.
There are options

to place every property from a rule in a separate line
to output the original string value instead of the the unescaped one
to always output color values as hex instead of rgb

If you need more options, please open a ticket.

InputSource source = new InputSource(new StringReader("div:after{content:'css\\200Bparser'}"));
CSSOMParser parser = new CSSOMParser(new SACParserCSS3());
CSSStyleSheetImpl sheet = (CSSStyleSheetImpl) parser.parseStyleSheet(source, null, null);

Assert.assertEquals("div:after { content: \"css\u200Bparser\" }", sheet.getCssText());

Assert.assertEquals("div:after {" + NEW_LINE + "    content: \"css\u200Bparser\"" + NEW_LINE + "}", sheet.getCssText(new CSSFormat().setPropertiesInSeparateLines(4)));

Assert.assertEquals("div:after { content: \"css\\200Bparser\" }", sheet.getCssText(new CSSFormat().setUseSourceStringValues(true)));

InputSource source = new InputSource(new StringReader("h1{background:rgb(7,42,0)}"));
CSSOMParser parser = new CSSOMParser(new SACParserCSS3());
CSSStyleSheetImpl sheet = (CSSStyleSheetImpl) parser.parseStyleSheet(source, null, null);

Assert.assertEquals("h1 { background: rgb(7, 42, 0) }", sheet.getCssText());

Assert.assertEquals("h1 { background: #072a00 }", sheet.getCssText(new CSSFormat().setRgbAsHex(true)));
