.sourceCodeLocation

[danielbayley80]

Hi folks.

I've been using Cheerio for some time and it works great. I upgraded recently and got it working but can no longer figure out how to get the node.sourceCodeLocation option to work.

previously I would use the CheerioAPI and then on load add the option object with the .sourceCodeLocation property.

then I would reference the property as node.sourceCodeLocation.

I can no longer see a mechanism to do this, nor can I find a working example for the new version.

Can you give me some pointers please, assuming this is still possible?

I don't think anything has changed here. We have a test for this that is passing, so it should still work:

cheerio/src/cheerio.spec.ts

Lines 443 to 449 in b3bc6c8

	for (const val of [true, 1, 'test']) {
	const options = { sourceCodeLocationInfo: val as never };
	const result = cheerio.load(noscript, options)('noscript');
	expect(result).toHaveLength(1);
	expect(result[0]).toHaveProperty('sourceCodeLocation');
	expect(typeof result[0].sourceCodeLocation).toBe('object');
	}

Hmmm Perhaps something changed with the type definitions / interfaces?
I'm using strongly typed typescript, maybe the property works but is not defined?
I'll dig a little more.

Looks like you'll have to remove @types/cheerio and use the types shipped with the package.

Ah, okay, thanks, I hadn't spotted that they were out of sync.. that fixed everything. thanks.
