Usage

Convert some HTML to Markdown:

from markdownify import markdownify as md
md('<b>Yay</b> <a href="http://github.com">GitHub</a>')  # > '**Yay** [GitHub](http://github.com)'

Specify tags to exclude (blacklist):

from markdownify import markdownify as md
md('<b>Yay</b> <a href="http://github.com">GitHub</a>', strip=['a'])  # > '**Yay** GitHub'

...or specify the tags you want to include (whitelist):

from markdownify import markdownify as md
md('<b>Yay</b> <a href="http://github.com">GitHub</a>', convert=['b'])  # > '**Yay** GitHub'

Options

Markdownify supports the following options:

strip

A list of tags to strip (blacklist). This option can’t be used with the convert option.

convert

A list of tags to convert (whitelist). This option can’t be used with the strip option.

autolinks

A boolean indicating whether the “automatic link” style should be used when a a tag’s contents match its href. Defaults to True

heading_style

Defines how headings should be converted. Accepted values are ATX, ATX_CLOSED, SETEXT, and UNDERLINED (which is an alias for SETEXT). Defaults to UNDERLINED.

bullets

An iterable (string, list, or tuple) of bullet styles to be used. If the iterable only contains one item, it will be used regardless of how deeply lists are nested. Otherwise, the bullet will alternate based on nesting level. Defaults to '*+-'.

strong_em_symbol

In markdown, both * and _ are used to encode strong or emphasized texts. Either of these symbols can be chosen by the options ASTERISK (default) or UNDERSCORE respectively.

newline_style

Defines the style of marking linebreaks (<br>) in markdown. The default value SPACES of this option will adopt the usual two spaces and a newline, while BACKSLASH will convert a linebreak to \\n (a backslash an a newline). While the latter convention is non-standard, it is commonly preferred and supported by a lot of interpreters.

Options may be specified as kwargs to the markdownify function, or as a nested Options class in MarkdownConverter subclasses.
