Support an each command to handle iteration in one query

[AaronAcerboni]

This will make taking data from tables or lists easy.

Example:

"QUERY"

{
  "url"    : "http://example.com/people",
  "type"   : "html",
  "forEach": "tablr tr",
  "map"    : {
    "name": {
      "selector": "td.first-name"
    },
    "age" : {
      "selector": "td.age"
    }
  }
}

"RESULT"

{
  "results": [
    {
      "name": "Dorothy",
      "age": 32
    },
    {
      "name": "Martin",
      "age": 7
    },
  ],
  "created": ...
}

Can we make it 'each' instead I 'forEach' ?

<div>
  <p class="bar">bar</p>
  <table>
    <tr><td class="age">1</td> <td class="name">2</td> <td class="foo">3</td> <td class="foo">4</td></tr>
  </table>
</div>

QUERY

{
  "url"    : "http://example.com/people",
  "type"   : "html",
  "map"    : {
    "bar": ".bar",
    "people": {
      "selector": "table tr",
      "map": {
        "age": {
          "selector": "td.age"
        },
        "name": {
          "selector": "td.name"
        },
        "foo": {
          "selector": "td.foo"
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

RESULT

{
  "bar": ["bar"],
  "people": [
    {
      "age": [1],
      "name": [2],
      "foo": [3, 4]
    },
    {
      "age": [1],
      "name": [2],
      "foo": [3, 4]
    }
  ]
}

I've just starting working on this great library. Thanks a lot for opensourcing it What is the state of this feature ?

[premasagar]

I'm glad you're finding Noodle useful. This feature didn't yet make it into code. The library isn't under active development but I'm happy to review and accept pull requests, especially if they are accompanied by tests.
