Url Readmode Markdown

Overview

Extract the primary article content from a URL using reader-mode heuristics and save it as Markdown. The output filename should be the content topic/title (sanitized for filenames).

Quick Start (scripted)

  1. Prefer the provided script: scripts/extract_readmode.js
  2. Use @mozilla/readability + jsdom + turndown.
  3. The script prints the output path after writing the Markdown file.

Example:

bash
1node scripts/extract_readmode.js \"https://example.com/article\" -o .

Dependencies (Node):

  • npm install @mozilla/readability jsdom turndown

Workflow (manual or scripted)

  1. Collect the target URL and verify it is article-like content.
  2. Extract the main content container using reader-mode heuristics.
  3. Convert cleaned HTML to Markdown while preserving headings, lists, and images.
  4. Set the output filename to the content topic/title (sanitize invalid filename characters).
  5. Review the Markdown for missing sections or noisy blocks and trim as needed.

Reader-Mode Heuristics

For extraction guidance, use references/readmode.md as the heuristic summary.

Output Requirements

  • Output: a single Markdown file containing the main article content.
  • Filename: use the article/topic title; sanitize disallowed filename characters; replace spaces with _; keep the original language if possible.
  • Place output in the user-specified directory or the current working directory by default.
