Parser #
This library is for xpath selection only, you must define a parser, and here is my prebuilt parser:


xpath_selector_html_parser
by html


xpath_selector_xml_parser
by xml


If you want to use another parser, refer to these two libraries to define your own parser that implements
the XPathNode<T> interface
Extended syntax #
In the attribute selector, the parser extends the following attribute selector in CSS style

Breaking changes #
1.x => 2.0 #

Remove classXPathElement, which merge toXPathNode
In XPathResult, elements=>nodes, elements=>element

2.0 => 3.0 #

Remove the built-in html and xlm parsers, and make it independent
to xpath_selector_html_parser
and xpath_selector_xml_parser
