How to insert tag before a string in html using python -


i finding text in html document , want add span tag holds information each text below

def recursivechildren(x):     if "childgenerator" in dir(x):       child in x.childgenerator():            recursivechildren(child)     else:        if not x.isspace():            content = x.string           new_tag = soup.new_tag("span")           content.insert_before(new_tag) if __name__ == "__main__":  open("path html",'r') file:       soup = beautifulsoup(file) child in soup.body.childgenerator():    recursivechildren(child)

i getting error string object has no attribute insert before. how can insert tag before string. tried getting parent tag of string , add add span tag before parent tag contents creates problem if there nested tags want span tag before each , every independent string. possible? below in python insert span tag before # content text

adding span before specific string jquery

example html:

<p class=msonormal >this first string <b> second string </b> , </span><span style='font-family:"times new roman"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

i want output like

<p class=msonormal >**<span>**this first string</span> <b>**<span>** second string </span></b>**<span>** , </span><span style='font-family:"times new roman"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

content = x.string content.insert_before(new_tag) problem.

if not x.isspace():     new_tag = soup.new_tag("span")     x.insert_before(new_tag)

soup.body.childgenerator() returns list of bs4.element. these able perform complex operations, insert trying do.

this function recursivechildren got argument x. x able insert_before.

but when doing content = x.string storing within content simple html string (type of str in python). string not support insert_before - have on x.

btw, should give @ pep8 - recursivechildren better named recursive_children , x bad variable name, should name element or that.

explicit better implicit

qa guys complained can't automate frontend testing. because our html looks same outside. lazy hack did this <template> <div :role="$options.name"> ... </div> </template> <script> export default { name: 'vmcomponentname' } </script> which takes name script , applies html. in browser get: <div role="vmcomponentname"> ... </div> line :role="$options.name" goes in every component. is there dry er solutions? please share. additional details i'll explain in details looking for. imagine have vmusercreate form creates user. test case can create user . to automatically test without role, have use following selector: .wrapper > .wrapper > .wrapper > .submit-button the test extremely brittle (will break lot). if use roles can use [role="vmusercreateform"] .submit-button selector. many folds less brittle. so basically, i'm
