html.md is a pure JavaScript library for converting HTML in to valid Markdown.

html.md can be used normally in any browser as well as in the node.js environment where it also provides a command line interface.

Install

Install from npm:

$ npm install html-md

Usage

Usage: md [options] [ -e html | file.html ] [arguments]

Options:
  -a, --absolute     always use absolute URLs for links
  -d, --debug        print additional debug information
  -e, --eval         pass a string from the command line as input
  -h, --help         display this help information
  -l, --long-ext     use long extension for Markdown files
  -o, --output DIR   set the output directory for converted Markdown
  -p, --print        print out the converted Markdown
  -v, --version      display the version number

Examples

Provide HTML to be converted and print it out into the terminal:

$ md -ep "I <b>love</b> <a href='https://github.com/neocotic/html.md'>html.md</a>"
I **love** [html.md](https://github.com/neocotic/html.md)

Convert HTML files and output them into another directory:

$ md -o ./markdown ./html/*.html

Convert all .html files in the current directory into .markdown files:

$ md -l .

Programmatically

md(html[, options]) is used primarily:

<script src="dist/md.min.js"></script>
<script>
  var markdown = md(document.querySelector('.content'))
  console.log(markdown)
</script>

Options

The following options are recognised by this method (all of which are optional);

Miscellaneous

md.noConflict() returns md in a no-conflict state, reallocating the md global variable name to its previous owner, where possible.

md.VERSION returns the current version.
