Use the CLI

Use email-lang-cli to parse the file and produce a json output.

email-lang-cli --file email.txt --out-file emails.json

The full specification of the CLI can be obtained with email-lang-cli -h and is as follows

Usage: email lang-cli [options] [command]

Commands:

  help  Display help

Options:

  -d, --dir               The directory containing the email text files you want to parse
  -f, --file              The file containing the email text you want to parse
  -h, --help              Output usage information
  -o, --out-file [value]  The output file in which you want the emails to be parsed (defaults to "emails.json")
  -v, --version           Output the version number

--file: takes a file in input. The file might contain one or more emails in the classic text format --dir: takes a directory in input. The directory contains all the email files to parse (by default it ignores file names not ending with .txt) --out-file: specifies the file name of the output json file

Typical usage would be:

email-lang-cli -f email.txt -o emails.json

This would print out some info and create the output file starting from the input file

Output

The result will be an array of emails structured as follows

[
  {
    "from": {
      "name": "matteomerola.me",
      "email": "mattmezza@gmail.com"
    },
