Types

type Detector

type Detector struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

Detector implements charset detection.

func NewHtmlDetector

func NewHtmlDetector() *Detector

NewHtmlDetector creates a Detector for Html.

func NewTextDetector

func NewTextDetector() *Detector

NewTextDetector creates a Detector for plain text.

func (*Detector) DetectAll

func (d *Detector) DetectAll(b []byte) ([]Result, error)

DetectAll returns all Results which have non-zero Confidence. The Results are sorted by Confidence in descending order.

func (*Detector) DetectBest

func (d *Detector) DetectBest(b []byte) (r *Result, err error)

DetectBest returns the Result with highest Confidence.

type Result

type Result struct {
	// IANA name of the detected charset.
	Charset string
	// IANA name of the detected language. It may be empty for some charsets.
	Language string
	// Confidence of the Result. Scale from 1 to 100. The bigger, the more confident.
	Confidence int
}

Result contains all the information that charset detector gives.
