Well, it's really just a different way of thinking about things. Instead
of:
```
import mwparserfromhell
text = "I has a template! {{foo|bar|baz|eggs=spam}} See it?"
wikicode = mwparserfromhell.parse(text)
templates = wikicode.filter_templates()
```
you would write:
```
js> Parsoid = require('parsoid');
js> text = "I has a template! {{foo|bar|baz|eggs=spam}} See it?";
js> Parsoid.parse(text, { document: true }).then(function(res) {
templates =
res.out.querySelectorAll('[typeof~="mw:Transclusion"]');
console.log(templates);
}).done();
```
That said, it wouldn't be hard to clone the API of
http://mwparserfromhell.readthedocs.org/en/latest/api/mwparserfromhell.html
Parsoid's expressiveness seems to convey useless information, overlook
important details, or duplicate them in different places.
If I want to resize an image, am I supposed to change "data-file-width"
and "data-file-height"? "width" and "height"? Or "src"?
I think what I'm looking for is sort of an 'enhanced wikitext' rather than
'annotated HTML'.
and that would probably be a great addition to the parsoid package API.
HTML is just a tree structured data representation. Think of it as XML if
it makes you happier. It just happens to come with well-defined semantics
and lots of manipulation libraries.
I don't know about edits tagged as "VisualEditor". That seems like that
should only be done by VE.
All edits made via visualeditoredit <
https://www.mediawiki.org/w/api.php?action=help&modules=visualeditoredit>
are tagged.
I take it you would like an easy work flow to
fetch a page, make edits, and then write the new revision back?
Right.
RESTBase could help you there. With one API call, you can get the (stored)
latest HTML revision of a page in Parsoid format~[1], but without the need
to wait for Parsoid to parse it (if the latest revision is in RESTBase's
storage).
What if it isn't?
There is also section API support (you can get individual HTML
fragments of a page by ID, and send only those back for transformation into
wikitext~[2]). There is also support for page editing (aka saving), but
these endpoints have not yet been enabled for WMF wikis in production due
to security concerns.
Then I guess HTML would have to be converted into wikitext before
saving? +1 API call

mwparserfromhell doesn't actually seem to have that functionality
It is actually pretty easy to do with Pywikibot.
But since Parsoid happens to work server-side, it makes sense to request
and send back the structured tree directly.
, but it
would also be nice to facilitate that use case if we can.
