README

go-strip-markdown

GoDoc

A Markdown stripper written in Go (golang).

Usage

You could create a simple command-line utility:

package main

import (
	"fmt"
	"github.com/writeas/go-strip-markdown"
	"os"
)

func main() {
	if len(os.Args) < 2 {
		os.Exit(1)
	}
	fmt.Println(stripmd.Strip(os.Args[1]))
}

You could pass it Markdown and get pure, beauteous text in return:

./strip "# A Tale of Text Formatting

_One fateful day_ a developer was presented with [Markdown](https://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/).
And they wanted **none of it**."

# A Tale of Text Formatting
#
# One fateful day a developer was presented with Markdown.
# And they wanted none of it.

Inspiration

This was largely based off of remove-markdown, a Markdown stripper written in Javascript.

Functions

Strip returns the given string sans any Markdown. Where necessary, elements are replaced with their best textual forms, so for example, hyperlinks are stripped of their URL and become only the link text, and images lose their URL and become only the alt text.

Example
fmt.Println(Strip(`# Hello, world!

This is [a Go library](https://github.com/writeas/go-strip-markdown) for stripping **Markdown** from _any_ text.`))
