Usage Shiva library

Cargo.toml

[dependencies]
shiva = {  version = "1.4.6", features = ["html", "markdown", "text", "pdf", "json", 
    "csv", "rtf", "docx", "xml", "xls", "xlsx", "ods", "typst"] }

main.rs

fn main() {
    let input_vec = std::fs::read("input.html").unwrap();
    let input_bytes = bytes::Bytes::from(input_vec);
    let document = shiva::html::Transformer::parse(&input_bytes).unwrap();
    let output_bytes = shiva::markdown::Transformer::generate(&document).unwrap();
    std::fs::write("out.md", output_bytes).unwrap();
}

Contributing

I would love to see contributions from the community. If you experience bugs, feel free to open an issue. If you would like to implement a new feature or bug fix, please follow the steps:

1. Do fork
2. Add comment to the issue that you are going to work on it
3. Create pull request

If you would like add new document type, you need to implement the following traits:

Required: shiva::core::TransformerTrait

pub trait TransformerTrait {
    fn parse(document: &Bytes) -> anyhow::Result<Document>;
    fn generate(document: &Document) -> anyhow::Result<Bytes>;
}

Optional: shiva::core::TransformerWithImageLoaderSaverTrait (If images store outside of document for example: HTML, Markdown)

pub trait TransformerWithImageLoaderSaverTrait {
    fn parse_with_loader<F>(document: &Bytes,  image_loader: F) -> anyhow::Result<Document>
        where F: Fn(&str) -> anyhow::Result<Bytes>;
    fn generate_with_saver<F>(document: &Document,  image_saver: F) -> anyhow::Result<Bytes>
        where F: Fn(&Bytes, &str) -> anyhow::Result<()>;
}
