V2 Release

The new version v2 has been released 🚀

It is a rewrite from the ground up — even more accurate than the v1 version!

Some new features:

• Nested lists: Improved handling of deeply nested lists
• Hard line breaks: Proper support for <br /> tags
• Smart escaping: Only escape characters if they would be mistaken for markdown syntax
• Powerful Plugins: The new architecture allows plugins to hook into every part of the converting process.
• Improved Golang API: Simpler, more ergonomic API. For most cases htmltomarkdown.ConvertString(input) works out of the box.
• CLI: The cli is now part of the repository
• and more much...

Try it now

Since there are breaking changes, the path now has the "/v2" suffix. This also allows you to run v1 and v2 in parallel.

go get -u github.com/JohannesKaufmann/html-to-markdown/v2

package main

import (
	"fmt"
	"log"

	htmltomarkdown "github.com/JohannesKaufmann/html-to-markdown/v2"
)

func main() {
	input := `<strong>Bold Text</strong>`

	markdown, err := htmltomarkdown.ConvertString(input)
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatal(err)
	}
	fmt.Println(markdown)
	// Output: **Bold Text**
}
