How to use use html data instead of direct URLs #39

Closed mejo closed 10 years ago

mejo commented 11 years ago

Older issue mentions 'train_from_htmlpage' method but its not working anymore? What I try to do is provide preprocessed html data (utf8 conversion done to make scrapely work) for scrapely.

I think train_from_htmlpage should work. could you check if you pass HtmlPage or raw data? BTW you can convert the raw html data to HtmlPage simply with HtmlPage(body=raw_body)

Did not verify, pursuing other projects. Closing anyway.
