HTML to Markdown with Java

Question

is there an easy way to transform HTML into markdown with JAVA?

I am currently using the Java MarkdownJ library to transform markdown to html.

Answer 1

if you are using WMD editor and want to get the markdown code on the server side, just use these options before loading the wmd.js script:

wmd_options = {
        // format sent to the server.  can also be "HTML"
        output: "Markdown",

        // line wrapping length for lists, blockquotes, etc.
        lineLength: 40,

        // toolbar buttons.  Undo and redo get appended automatically.
        buttons: "bold italic | link blockquote code image | ol ul heading hr",

        // option to automatically add WMD to the first textarea found.
        autostart: true
    };
