Features

• Minimal, A 2MB+ binary is all you need
• Batch, both file, directory and glob pattern are supported
• Fast, it takes less than 1s to convert 200 html files (~60MB in total size, see the benchmark README)

Usages

Basic

# Read input from stdin
htmd

# Will write output to stdout
htmd test.html

# Explicit input option
htmd --input test.html

# Write output to test.md by shell
htmd test.html > test.md

# Write output to test.md internally
htmd test.html --output ./

# Read html files from a directory
htmd ./pages -o converted

Inputs

Stdin (- as the filename), file, directory, and glob pattern are supported.

This default input is stdin, so after you type only htmd it will wait for input, to finish typing, press Ctrl + D (Ctrl + Z on Windows).

Example inputs:

• Stdin: -, < page.html
• File: page.html, index.html
• Directory: pages, ./folder
• Glob pattern: pages/\*\*/\*.html, ./\*.html

Output

Stdout (- as the filename), file, and directory are supported. Defaults to stdout.

You cannot set output as stdout when you have multiple input files.

Example outputs:

• Stdout: -
• File: output.md,
• Directory: output, ./converted

With conversion options

htmd test.html --ignored-tags "head,script,style" --heading-style setex

Flatten output

By default, when converting files using glob patterns such as pages/**/*.html, output files will follow the original folder hierarchy, to flatten output files, use --flatten-output.

htmd pages/**/*.html --output converted --flatten-output

Load options form toml file

You can save your options to a toml file

# htmd-options.toml
[options]
ignored-tags =["head", "script", "style"]
heading-style = "setex"

Then load them using --options-file

htmd test.html --options-file htmd-options.toml

Install

Cargo

cargo install htmd-cli
