I'd like to replace bs4 with selectolax but I need the prettify method to save formatted HTML in a file.

What exists in selectolax to format the HTML object in a pretty print format with indentation as a string?

I think this works but am interested if I've missed something...

html="""
<place your HTML content here>
"""

@staticmethod
def printNode(node: Node, incr: int, indent: int):
    text = node.text(deep=False, separator="", strip=True)
    if node.tag == "-text":
        if len(text) != 0:
            print(indent * " " + text)
    else:
        if len(node.attributes) == 0:
            print(indent * " " + "<" + node.tag + ">")

        else:
            attrs = ""
            for key in node.attributes:
                value = node.attributes[key]
                if isinstance(value, (bool, int, float)):
                    attrs += key + "=" + str(value) + " "
                else:
                    attrs += key + '="' + value + '" '
            print(indent * " " + "<" + node.tag + " " + attrs + ">")

        for child in node.iter(include_text=True):
            printNode(child, incr, indent + incr)
        print(indent * " " + "</" + node.tag + ">")

@staticmethod
def printHTML(html: HTMLParser, incr: int):
    root = html.root
    if len(root.attributes) == 0:
        print("<" + root.tag + ">" + root.text(deep=False, separator="", strip=True))
    else:
        attrs = ""
        for key in root.attributes:
            value = root.attributes[key]
            if isinstance(value, (bool, int, float)):
                attrs += key + "=" + value + " "
            else:
                attrs += key + '="' + value + '" '
        if root.text_content:
            print("<" + root.tag + " " + attrs + ">" + root.text_content)
        else:
            print("<" + root.tag + " " + attrs + ">")
    for node in root.iter(include_text=True):
        printNode(node, incr, incr)
    print("</" + root.tag + ">")

htmlDoc = HTMLParser(html)
printHTML(htmlDoc, 2)

Hi, there is no built-in HTML formatter in selectolax. It only formats output in a pre-defined way. But your code should work fine.
