Parse a PDF

use std::path::Path;
use edgeparse_core::api::config::ProcessingConfig;
use edgeparse_core::{convert, output};

fn main() -> anyhow::Result<()> {
    let config = ProcessingConfig::default();
    let doc = convert(Path::new("document.pdf"), &config)?;

    println!("Pages: {}", doc.number_of_pages);
    println!("Elements: {}", doc.kids.len());

    // Render to Markdown string
    let md = output::markdown::to_markdown(&doc)?;
    println!("{md}");

    Ok(())
}

Output Renderers

use std::path::Path;
use edgeparse_core::api::config::ProcessingConfig;
use edgeparse_core::{convert, output};

fn main() -> anyhow::Result<()> {
    let config = ProcessingConfig::default();
    let doc = convert(Path::new("document.pdf"), &config)?;

    // Markdown
    let md = output::markdown::to_markdown(&doc)?;

    // HTML
    let html = output::html::to_html(&doc)?;

    // JSON
    let json = output::legacy_json::to_legacy_json_string(&doc, "document")?;

    Ok(())
}
