A Node.js library and CLI tool that automatically extracts the main body content and metadata (title, author, date, images, tags, links) from HTML web pages, based on python-goose. It turns cluttered webpages into clean plain text or JSON data.
Use cases
- extract main article text from a webpage html
- build machine learning datasets from web pages
- get article metadata like author and publish date from html
- strip ads and navigation from web pages to get clean text
- build an Instapaper-style read-it-later app
- extract embedded videos and images from articles from the command line
When to choose
- you need to extract readable article content from raw HTML in Node.js
- you want a CLI to quickly pull main text and metadata from web pages
- you're building datasets or text-processing pipelines from web content
When to avoid
- you need a Python or JVM content extractor (use python-goose or goose instead)
- you need actively maintained scraping with modern site support
- you want to scrape pages requiring JavaScript rendering
