Class: abstract Cheerio<T>

The cheerio class is the central class of the library. It wraps a set of elements and provides an API for traversing, modifying, and interacting with the set.

Loading a document will return the Cheerio class bound to the root element of the document. The class will be instantiated when querying the document (when calling $('selector')).

Example​

<ul id="fruits">
  <li class="apple">Apple</li>
  <li class="orange">Orange</li>
  <li class="pear">Pear</li>
</ul>

Given a Cheerio object that represents a set of DOM elements, the .not() method constructs a new Cheerio object from a subset of the matching elements. The supplied selector is tested against each element; the elements that don't match the selector will be included in the result.

The .not() method can take a function as its argument in the same way that .filter() does. Elements for which the function returns true are excluded from the filtered set; all other elements are included.
