This project was forked from github.com/jaytaylor/html2text in order to use another clean bom library due the original one has no license.
Ensure your emails are readable by all!
Turns HTML into raw text, useful for sending fancy HTML emails with a equivalently nicely formatted TXT document as a fallback (e.g. for people who don't allow HTML emails or have other display issues).
html2text is a simple golang package for rendering HTML into plaintext.
There are still lots of improvements to be had, but FWIW this has worked fine for my [basic] HTML-2-text needs.
It requires go 1.x or newer ;)
go get github.com/cpanato/html2textpackage main
import (
"fmt"
"github.com/cpanato/html2text"
)
func main() {
inputHtml := `
<html>
<head>
<title>My Mega Service</title>
<link rel=\"stylesheet\" href=\"main.css\">
<style type=\"text/css\">body { color: #fff; }</style>
</head>
<body>
<div class="logo">
<a href="http://mymegaservice.com/"><img src="/logo-image.jpg" alt="Mega Service"/></a>
</div>

</ul>
</p>
</body>
</html>
`
text, err := html2text.FromString(inputHtml)
if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
fmt.Println(text)
}Output:
Mega Service ( http://mymegaservice.com/ )
