way to customize extraction algo ?

[b3b00]

Hello, first thanks for you work.

Is there a way to customize extraction algorithm ? For exemple for m'y special i'd like to remove <nav> tags . Isthis possible or do i need to postprocess the smartreader output ?

Hello, thank you too for your contribution.

There are a couple of ways to modify the result of the extraction algorithm:

• you can change the regular expressions that evaluate elements. I think that for your needs adding "nav" to RegularExpression.UnlikelyCandidates would work
• you can add a custom operation (basically, you can ask the library to post-process the extracted article before giving it to you)

The documentation should have all the information you need. If not, tell me, so I can update the documentation.

@gabriele-tomassetti ,

I've used reader.AddOptionToRegularExpression(RegularExpressions.UnlikelyCandidates,"nav"); and it works perfectly. Exactly what I need 👍

Thanks for your help.
