Text nodes? Requesting .contents()

I’m trying to get text nodes with cheerio and I cannot find a way to do this. The only way that I am aware of is calling .contents() in jQuery to retrieve all elements (including text nodes and comment nodes). Example:

var markup = '<div>Something <b>bold</b></div>';
var $ = cheerio.load(markup);
console.log($('div').contents().first().text()); // "Something "

That is indeed pretty easy, thanks for the hints. I didn’t actually jump into the source code yet, but I’ve just edited my second response with the proper implementation (I guess). It would be nice to have this appear in the official branch at some point. Thanks for the feedback!

var contents = exports.contents = function() {
  if (!this[0] || !this[0].children) return this;
  return this.make(this[0].children);
};

Ah, indeed. I missed that. I guess it will become something like this

var contents = exports.contents = function() {
  var all = [];
  _.each(this, function(el, i) {
    _.each(el.children, function(ch, j) {
      all.push(ch);
    });
  })
  return this.make(all);
};
