There is a regex plugin and a htmlparser plugin for this.The htmlparser plugin accepts XPath, but if you want to process it further the regex plugin may just work better.
Examples for your packages: [html-xml-utils] source = "regex" url = "https://www.w3.org/Tools/HTML-XML-utils/"; regex = "html-xml-utils-(.*?).tar.gz" [oil] source = "htmlparser" url = "https://www.oilshell.org/release/latest/"; xpath = "//h1/text()" prefix = "Oil " -- Regards, Felix Yan
