Legal Things - Document merger

With the document merger library, you can combine the contents of multiple documents. Currently only HTML is supported.

Requirements

Installation

The library can be installed using npm.

npm install document-merger

How it works

The library exposes a single function with which you can merge documents together. The documents are merged together by a glue, which can be custom defined and defaults to pagebreaks. The results of the merged documents is a html file which contains a body tag that has the body of the combined documents in it. The head is inherited from the first file.

const DocumentMerger = require('document-merger');
const merger = new DocumentMerger();
let options = {
    documents: [
        {
            content: `
                <html>
                  <head>
                    <base href="http://example.com/cdn">
                  </head>
                  <body>
                    <p>This is the first document</p>
                  </body>
                </html>
            `,
            type: 'html'
        },
        {
            content: `
                <html>
                  <head>This will be ignored, since only the first head is used</head>
                  <body>
                    <p>This is the second document</p>
                    <b>It ends here</b>
                  </body>
                </html>
            `,
            type: 'html'
        }
    ],
    glue: '<div style="page-break-after: always"><span style="display:none">&#xA0;</span></div>',
    head: '<style>body {margin: 0}</style>'
};

console.log(merger.merge(options));
/*

  <head>
    <base href="http://example.com/cdn">
    <style>body {margin: 0}</style>
