"Couldn't find a tree builder"?

Open drscotthawley opened this issue 1 year ago • 1 comments

Not working for me as expected. Using the URL from the README:

$ autocite --url http://arstechnica.com/business/2012/12/report-data-caps-just-a-cash-cow-for-internet-providers/
Couldn't find a tree builder with the features you requested: html5lib. Do you need to install a parser library?

Your citations:

I ran python setup.py install with no problems. What is this parser library it refers to? Didn't see that mentioned in the README.

Pull it again and it should work, I swapped the parser. Alternatively you can install the equivalent of python-html5lib and use the version you currently have.
