html2text
Forked from https://github.com/jaytaylor/html2text.
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
go get jaytaylor.com/html2text
Example usage
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>

</ul>

</body>
</html>`
text, err := html2text.FromString(inputHTML, html2text.Options{PrettyTables: true})
if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
fmt.Println(text)
}
Output:
