When the input ends inside a tag after a closing tag name (</b ) or after the / of an opening tag (<b /), the tokenizer falls through to the default branch of handleTrailingData and calls ontext(-1, end), because sectionStart was already reset to -1. The parser then emits a slice of whatever is left in its buffer, so the text depends on how the input was split into chunks:

import { Parser } from "htmlparser2";
const run = (...chunks) => { const out = []; const p = new Parser({ ontext: (t) => out.push(t) }); chunks.forEach((c) => p.write(c)); p.end(); return out; };
run("x</b ");        // [ 'x', ' ' ]
run("x", "</b ");    // [ 'x', '</b ' ]
run("<p>x</p ");     // [ 'x', ' ' ] and the text has startIndex 8, endIndex 7

Expected is ['x'] in every case, the same as for x</b and x<b today: an unfinished tag at EOF is dropped.

The fix adds InSelfClosingTag and AfterClosingTagName to the list of in-tag states that handleTrailingData ignores.

The new tokenizer test fails on master with:

- Expected
+ Received
+   [
+     "ontext",
+     -1,
+     5,
+   ],

With the fix, npm run test:vi (216 tests) and npm run lint pass. I also ran 200k random inputs through the parser once in one piece and once split at random points; before the fix the event streams differed on these EOF cases, after it there were no differences.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Incomplete self-closing tags and tags with an unfinished closing-tag name are ignored during tokenization instead of triggering partial tag callbacks. This behavior is consistent across different points where streamed input may be split, so incomplete markup does not produce a partial tag event.

Walkthrough

At end of input, the tokenizer suppresses callbacks for unfinished self-closing tags and tags after a closing tag name. Regression tests cover two inputs and verify that tokenization emits only the initial text event.

Changes: Tokenizer end-of-input handling

Layer / File(s) Summary
Suppress callbacks for incomplete tags
src/Tokenizer.ts, src/Tokenizer.spec.ts
InSelfClosingTag and AfterClosingTagName now use the no-callback path at end of input. Tests for "a<b /" and "a</b " assert that only the text event for positions 0–1 is emitted.

Explanation

The title names the change: the tokenizer now drops unfinished tags that end after a closing tag name or a slash at end of input. The raw summary confirms the change to Tokenizer.handleTrailingData, which stops emitting tag callbacks for unfinished self-closing tags and for tags after a closing tag name. The PR objectives describe the same fix for chunk-dependent text events, and the title matches it. The title is 77 characters, slightly above the concise ideal, but it is specific and accurate.

A rabbit taps the tokenizer’s door,
Two unfinished tags are tested once more.
Split by split, the text stays in view,
No tag callback slips through.
The end arrives; the tests agree,
And hops the rabbit, pleased and free.
