Easiest way to add arbitrary HTML to every article?

[khromov]

Hello! I am working on a recipe and need to prepend a title (<h1> tags in html) before every article, but I have found this is not as common of a problem as I anticipated.

What is the easiest way to prepend arbitrary HTML to a finished article? I need to be able to inject it before a certain div inside the processed HTML.

You can use postprocess_html and BeautifulSoup. Find the tag and use insert.

I did figure this one out myself, sort of. I settled with adding the title into the content container (it makes no difference when viewed anyway.)

It's done by using postprocess_html(), which gives you the HTML of each article just before heading to the finished paper.

 def postprocess_html(self, soup, first_fetch):
        #find container, in my case it's a div with the id attribute set to "story" and insert the HTML you wish, in my case the string '<h1>testing</h1>'
        for link_tag in soup.findAll(attrs={"id" : "story"}):
            link_tag.insert(0,'<h1>testing</h1>')

If this is because you've defined h1 to be a pagebreak, then that's just really poor code.

Perhaps you didn't understand.

The articles I'm getting do not have any heading, the heading is only existent in the <title> tag of the document, so articles are displayed without a heading. Here's an example:


With my fix, I can add a big text to all the articles with the help of the h1 tag.
