### Converts HTML into text of the markdown-flavored variety
## Introduction
Ensure your emails are readable by all!
Turns HTML into raw text, useful for sending fancy HTML emails with an 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 ;)
## Download the package
```bash
go get jaytaylor.com/html2text
```
## Example usage
```go
package main
import (
"fmt"
"jaytaylor.com/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://jaytaylor.com/"><img src="/logo-image.jpg" alt="Mega Service"/></a>
</div>
<h1>Welcome to your new account on my service!</h1>
<p>
Here is some more information:
<ul>
<li>Link 1: <a href="https://example.com">Example.com</a></li>
<li>Link 2: <a href="https://example2.com">Example2.com</a></li>
<li>Something else</li>
</ul>
</p>
<table>
<thead>
<tr><th>Header 1</th><th>Header 2</th></tr>
</thead>
<tfoot>
<tr><td>Footer 1</td><td>Footer 2</td></tr>
</tfoot>
<tbody>
<tr><td>Row 1 Col 1</td><td>Row 1 Col 2</td></tr>
<tr><td>Row 2 Col 1</td><td>Row 2 Col 2</td></tr>
</tbody>
</table>
</body>
</html>`
text, err := html2text.FromString(inputHTML, html2text.Options{PrettyTables: true})
if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
fmt.Println(text)
}
```
Output:
```
