Functions

convert()

Convert HTML to Markdown, Djot, or plain text.

Returns a ConversionResult with converted content plus optional metadata, document structure, table data, inline images, and warnings depending on the enabled features and conversion options.

Errors:

Returns an error if HTML parsing fails or if the input contains invalid UTF-8.

Observability

Emits an html_to_markdown.convert span at INFO level with fields input_len, output_format, wrap, extract_metadata, extract_images, and tier_strategy. These field names are part of the public observability contract and are kept stable across releases. This crate never installs a tracing subscriber — attach one in the consuming application to observe these spans and events.

Signature:

@Throws(ConversionError::class)
fun convert(html: String, options: ConversionOptions? = null): ConversionResult

Example:

val result = convert("value", ConversionOptions())

Parameters:

Name	Type	Required	Description
`html`	`String`	Yes	The html
`options`	`ConversionOptions?`	No	The options to use

Returns: ConversionResult

Errors: Throws ConversionError.

Types

ConversionOptions

Main conversion options for HTML to Markdown conversion.

Use ConversionOptions.builder() to construct, or the default constructor for defaults.

Field	Type	Default	Description
`headingStyle`	`HeadingStyle`	`HeadingStyle.Atx`	Heading style to use in Markdown output (ATX `#` or Setext underline).
`listIndentType`	`ListIndentType`	`ListIndentType.Spaces`	How to indent nested list items (spaces or tab).
`listIndentWidth`	`Long`	`2`	Number of spaces (or tabs) to use for each level of list indentation.
`bullets`	`String`	`"-*+"`	Bullet character(s) to use for unordered list items (e.g. `"-"`, `"*"`).
`strongEmSymbol`	`String`	`"*"`	Character used for bold/italic emphasis markers (`*` or `_`).
`escapeAsterisks`	`Boolean`	`false`	Escape `*` characters in plain text to avoid unintended bold/italic.
`escapeUnderscores`	`Boolean`	`false`	Escape `_` characters in plain text to avoid unintended bold/italic.
`escapeMisc`	`Boolean`	`false`	Escape miscellaneous Markdown metacharacters (`[]()#` etc.) in plain text.
`escapeAscii`	`Boolean`	`false`	Escape ASCII characters that have special meaning in certain Markdown dialects.
`codeLanguage`	`String`	`""`	Default language annotation for fenced code blocks that have no language hint.
`autolinks`	`Boolean`	`true`	Automatically convert bare URLs into Markdown autolinks.
`defaultTitle`	`Boolean`	`false`	Emit a default title when no `<title>` tag is present.
`brInTables`	`Boolean`	`false`	Render `<br>` elements inside table cells as literal line breaks.
`compactTables`	`Boolean`	`false`	Emit tables without column padding (compact GFM format). When `true`, column widths are not computed and cells are emitted with no trailing spaces. Separator rows use exactly `---` per column. Produces token-efficient output suitable for RAG / LLM contexts. Default `false` (aligned padding preserved).
`highlightStyle`	`HighlightStyle`	`HighlightStyle.DoubleEqual`	Style used for `<mark>` / highlighted text (e.g. `==text==`).
`extractMetadata`	`Boolean`	`true`	Populate `result.metadata` with `<head>` / `<meta>` extraction (title, description, Open Graph, Twitter Card, JSON-LD, …). Default `true`. Disabling skips the metadata pass only — table extraction into `result.tables` runs unconditionally.
`whitespaceMode`	`WhitespaceMode`	`WhitespaceMode.Normalized`	Controls how whitespace sequences are normalised in the converted output. - `WhitespaceMode.Normalized` (default) — collapses consecutive whitespace characters (spaces, tabs, newlines) to a single space, matching browser rendering behaviour. - `WhitespaceMode.Strict` — preserves all whitespace exactly as it appears in the source HTML, including runs of spaces and embedded newlines. Choose `Strict` only when the source HTML uses deliberate whitespace (e.g. pre-formatted content outside `<pre>` tags). For most documents `Normalized` produces cleaner output.
`stripNewlines`	`Boolean`	`false`	Strip all newlines from the output, producing a single-line result.
`wrap`	`Boolean`	`false`	Wrap long lines at `wrap_width` characters.
`wrapWidth`	`Long`	`80`	Maximum output line width in characters when `wrap` is `true` (default `80`). Lines are broken at word boundaries so that no line exceeds this length. A value of `0` is treated as “no limit” — equivalent to leaving `wrap` disabled. Has no effect when `wrap` is `false`.
`convertAsInline`	`Boolean`	`false`	Treat the entire document as inline content (no block-level wrappers).
`subSymbol`	`String`	`""`	Markdown notation for subscript text (e.g. `"~"`).
`supSymbol`	`String`	`""`	Markdown notation for superscript text (e.g. `"^"`).
`newlineStyle`	`NewlineStyle`	`NewlineStyle.Spaces`	How to encode hard line breaks (`<br>`) in Markdown.
`codeBlockStyle`	`CodeBlockStyle`	`CodeBlockStyle.Backticks`	Style used for fenced code blocks (backticks or tilde).
`keepInlineImagesIn`	`List<String>`	`[]`	HTML tag names whose `<img>` children are kept inline instead of block.
`preprocessing`	`PreprocessingOptions`	—	Options for the HTML pre-processing pass applied before conversion begins. Pre-processing runs before the HTML is handed to the converter and can perform operations such as unwrapping redundant wrapper elements, removing tracking pixels, and normalising vendor-specific markup. See `PreprocessingOptions` for the full set of knobs. Defaults to the standard preprocessing options, which enables the standard cleaning passes. Set individual fields on `PreprocessingOptions` (or construct via `ConversionOptions.builder`) to opt in or out of specific passes.
`encoding`	`String`	`"utf-8"`	Expected character encoding of the input HTML (default `"utf-8"`).
`debug`	`Boolean`	`false`	Emit debug information during conversion.
`stripTags`	`List<String>`	`[]`	HTML tag names whose content is stripped from the output entirely.
`preserveTags`	`List<String>`	`[]`	HTML tag names that are preserved verbatim in the output.
`skipImages`	`Boolean`	`false`	Skip conversion of `<img>` elements (omit images from output).
`urlEscapeStyle`	`UrlEscapeStyle`	`UrlEscapeStyle.Angle`	URL encoding strategy for link and image destinations. Controls how special characters in URL destinations are escaped: - `UrlEscapeStyle.Angle` (default) — wraps the destination in angle brackets when it contains spaces or newlines. Some parsers misinterpret `>` inside such a destination. - `UrlEscapeStyle.Percent` — percent-encodes every character that is not an RFC 3986 unreserved character or `/`, producing a destination that all Markdown parsers handle correctly even when the URL contains `<`, `>`, spaces, or parentheses.
`linkStyle`	`LinkStyle`	`LinkStyle.Inline`	Link rendering style (inline or reference).
`outputFormat`	`OutputFormat`	`OutputFormat.Markdown`	Target output format (Markdown, plain text, etc.).
`includeDocumentStructure`	`Boolean`	`false`	Include structured document tree in result.
`extractImages`	`Boolean`	`false`	Extract inline images from data URIs and SVGs.
`maxImageSize`	`Long`	`5242880`	Maximum decoded image size in bytes (default 5MB).
`captureSvg`	`Boolean`	`false`	Capture SVG elements as images.
`inferDimensions`	`Boolean`	`true`	Infer image dimensions from data.
`maxDepth`	`Long?`	`null`	Maximum DOM traversal depth. `null` uses the library’s internal native-stack safety limit. Explicit values above that safety limit are clamped to prevent process-aborting stack overflows on pathologically deep DOM trees.
`excludeSelectors`	`List<String>`	`[]`	CSS selectors for elements to exclude entirely (element + all content). Unlike `strip_tags` (which removes the tag wrapper but keeps children), excluded elements and all their descendants are dropped from the output. Supports any CSS selector that `tl` supports: tag names, `.class`, `#id`, `[attribute]`, etc. Invalid selectors are silently skipped at conversion time. Example: `[".cookie-banner", "#ad-container", "[role='complementary']"]`
`tierStrategy`	`TierStrategy`	`TierStrategy.Auto`	Which conversion tier to use. - `TierStrategy.Auto` (default) — automatically choose the best path. - `TierStrategy.Tier2` — always use the Tier-2 DOM-walk path. - `TierStrategy.Tier1` — always attempt Tier-1 (testkit only).

ConversionResult

The primary result of HTML conversion and extraction.

Contains the converted text output, optional structured document tree, metadata, extracted tables, images, and processing warnings.

Field	Type	Default	Description
`content`	`String?`	`null`	Converted text output in the selected format: Markdown, Djot, or plain text.
`document`	`DocumentStructure?`	`null`	Structured document tree with semantic elements. Populated when the `include_document_structure` option is `true`. `null` otherwise (the default), which avoids the overhead of building the tree. When present, the tree mirrors the converted document: headings open `Group` sections, paragraphs and list items carry inline `TextAnnotation`s, and tables reference the same `TableGrid` data exposed in the result’s `tables` field. Note: this field is independent of the `metadata` feature flag. Document structure collection is always available at runtime; it is gated only by the runtime option, not by a compile-time feature.
`metadata`	`HtmlMetadata`	—	Extracted HTML metadata (title, OG, links, images, structured data).
`tables`	`List<TableData>`	`[]`	Extracted tables with structured cell data and markdown representation. Table data is collected by the same pass that builds `Self.document`, so it is populated only when the `include_document_structure` option is `true`. With the default options this is an empty list even for input that contains tables — the tables still appear in `Self.content` as rendered Markdown.
`warnings`	`List<ProcessingWarning>`	`[]`	Non-fatal processing warnings.

DocumentMetadata

Document-level metadata extracted from <head> and top-level elements.

Contains all metadata typically used by search engines, social media platforms, and browsers for document indexing and presentation.

Field	Type	Default	Description

`description`	`String?`	`null`	Document description from `<meta name="description">` tag
`keywords`	`List<String>`	`[]`	Document keywords from `<meta name="keywords">` tag, split on commas
`author`	`String?`	`null`	Document author from `<meta name="author">` tag
`canonicalUrl`	`String?`	`null`	Canonical URL from `<link rel="canonical">` tag
`baseHref`	`String?`	`null`	Base URL from `<base href="">` tag for resolving relative URLs
`language`	`String?`	`null`	Document language from `lang` attribute
`textDirection`	`TextDirection?`	`null`	Document text direction from `dir` attribute
`openGraph`	`Map<String, String>`	`{}`	Open Graph metadata (og:* properties) for social media Keys like “title”, “description”, “image”, “url”, etc.
`twitterCard`	`Map<String, String>`	`{}`	Twitter Card metadata (twitter:* properties) Keys like “card”, “site”, “creator”, “title”, “description”, “image”, etc.
`metaTags`	`Map<String, String>`	`{}`	Additional meta tags not covered by specific fields Keys are meta name/property attributes, values are content

DocumentNode

A single node in the document tree.

Field	Type	Default	Description
`id`	`String`	—	Deterministic node identifier.
`content`	`NodeContent`	—	The semantic content of this node.
`parent`	`Int?`	`null`	Index of the parent node (None for root nodes).
`children`	`List<Int>`	`/* serde(default) */`	Indices of child nodes in reading order.
`annotations`	`List<TextAnnotation>`	`/* serde(default) */`	Inline formatting annotations (bold, italic, links, etc.) with byte offsets into the text.
`attributes`	`Map<String, String>?`	`null`	Format-specific attributes preserved from the source HTML element. Keys are lowercased attribute names as they appear in the HTML (e.g. `"class"`, `"id"`, `"data-foo"`). Values are the raw attribute strings, copied verbatim from the source — no HTML entity decoding is applied here. The map is `null` when no attributes are present (omitted entirely in serialized output). Not every HTML attribute is preserved: only attributes that carry semantic or structural significance for the node type are collected. For example, heading nodes capture the `"id"` attribute for anchor linking; other element-level attributes may be silently dropped.

DocumentStructure

A structured document tree representing the semantic content of an HTML document.

Uses a flat node array with index-based parent/child references for efficient traversal.

Field	Type	Default	Description
`nodes`	`List<DocumentNode>`	—	All nodes in document reading order.
`sourceFormat`	`String?`	`null`	The source format (always “html” for this library).

A single key-value metadata entry from <head> meta tags.

Binding-safe replacement for (String, String) tuples used in NodeContent.MetadataBlock. Tuple pairs cannot be represented across language boundaries without lossy degradation.

Field	Type	Default	Description
`key`	`String`	—	Metadata key (e.g. `"title"`, `"description"`, `"og:title"`).
`value`	`String`	—	Metadata value.

PreprocessingOptions

HTML preprocessing options for document cleanup before conversion.

Field	Type	Default	Description
`enabled`	`Boolean`	`true`	Enable HTML preprocessing globally

`removeNavigation`	`Boolean`	`true`	Remove navigation elements (nav, breadcrumbs, menus, sidebars)
`removeForms`	`Boolean`	`true`	Remove form elements (forms, inputs, buttons, etc.)

ProcessingWarning

A non-fatal diagnostic produced during HTML conversion.

Warnings indicate that conversion completed but some content may have been handled differently than expected — for example, an image that could not be extracted, a truncated input, or malformed HTML that was repaired with best-effort parsing.

Conversion always succeeds (returns ConversionResult) even when warnings are present. Callers should inspect warnings and decide how to handle them based on their tolerance for partial results:

Logging pipelines: emit each warning at WARN level and continue.
Strict pipelines: treat any warning as a hard error by checking result.warnings.is_empty() before using the output.

See WarningKind for the full taxonomy of warning categories.

Field	Type	Default	Description
`message`	`String`	—	Human-readable warning message.
`kind`	`WarningKind`	—	The category of warning.

StructuredData

Structured data block (JSON-LD, Microdata, or RDFa).

Represents machine-readable structured data found in the document. JSON-LD blocks are collected as raw JSON strings for flexibility.

Field	Type	Default	Description
`dataType`	`StructuredDataType`	—	Type of structured data (JSON-LD, Microdata, `RDFa`)
`rawJson`	`String`	—	Raw JSON string (for JSON-LD) or serialized representation
`schemaType`	`String?`	`null`	Schema type if detectable (e.g., “Article”, “Event”, “Product”)

TableData

A top-level extracted table with both structured data and markdown representation.

Field	Type	Default	Description

`markdown`	`String`	—	The markdown rendering of this table.

TableGrid

A structured table grid with cell-level data including spans.

Field	Type	Default	Description
`rows`	`Int`	—	Number of rows.
`cols`	`Int`	—	Number of columns.
`cells`	`List<GridCell>`	`[]`	All cells in the table as a flat, sparse list. The list is ordered by `(row, col)` but is not a dense `rows × cols` matrix: cells that are covered by a spanning cell (via `row_span > 1` or `col_span > 1`) do not appear in the list. Only the top-left “origin” cell of a span is present, with its `row_span` and `col_span` fields set accordingly. To reconstruct the full visual grid, iterate over all cells and mark the rectangular region `[row .. row+row_span, col .. col+col_span]` as occupied by that cell. Any `(row, col)` position that is not the origin of any cell is covered by a span from an earlier cell. The length of this list is `≤ rows * cols`. An empty table (`rows == 0 \|\| cols == 0`) produces an empty list.

TextAnnotation

A styling or semantic annotation that applies to a byte range within a node’s text.

Unlike DocumentNode, which captures block-level structure (headings, paragraphs, etc.), a TextAnnotation describes inline-level markup — bold, italic, links, code spans, and similar — that spans a contiguous run of bytes inside DocumentNode.content’s text field.

Byte offsets (start..end) are into the UTF-8 encoded text of the parent node. The range is half-open: start is inclusive and end is exclusive.

Multiple annotations on the same node can overlap (e.g. bold-italic text), and they are stored in the order they are encountered during DOM traversal.

See AnnotationKind for the full list of supported annotation types.

Field	Type	Default	Description
`start`	`Int`	—	Start byte offset (inclusive) into the parent node’s text.
`end`	`Int`	—	End byte offset (exclusive) into the parent node’s text.
`kind`	`AnnotationKind`	—	The type of annotation.

`Tier2`	Always use the Tier-2 (`tl.parse` + walk) path, skipping Tier-1.
`Tier1`	Force the Tier-1 byte scanner; if it bails, fall back to Tier-2. Testkit-only; not stable API.

PreprocessingPreset

HTML preprocessing aggressiveness level.

Controls the extent of cleanup performed before conversion. Higher levels remove more elements.

Value	Description
`Minimal`	Minimal cleanup. Remove only essential noise (scripts, styles).
`Standard`	Standard cleanup. Default. Removes navigation, forms, and other auxiliary content.
`Aggressive`	Aggressive cleanup. Remove extensive non-content elements and structure.

The Angle variant (default) wraps the destination in angle brackets: [text](<url with spaces>). This is the CommonMark-specified escape hatch but breaks when the URL itself contains >.

The Percent variant percent-encodes every character that is not an RFC 3986 unreserved character or /, producing a destination safe for all Markdown parsers: [text](url%20with%20spaces).

Value	Description
`Angle`	Wrap destinations that contain spaces or newlines in angle brackets. Default.
