javascript - How to turn Cheerio DOM nodes back into html? -

using html below, i'm attempting extract html of each paragraph. cannot find way turn nodes html or query objects.

the below string var html = ...

<article>     <p> p1 </p>     <p> p2 </p> </article>

the html loaded such

var $ = require('cheerio').load(html) var paragraphs = $('p').toarray().map(p => /* want html @ point */ )

how html of these paragraphs?

note: clarity i'm calling return value of cheerio.load "query object" , return of toarray method dom nodes; lack of better phrase.

you can use $.html:

var paragraphs = $('p').toarray().map(p => {     console.log($.html(p));     return $.html(p); });

the documentation shows example using selector, cheerio dom elements work expected:

if want return outerhtml can use $.html(selector):

$.html('.pear') //=> <li class="pear">pear</li>
