hyperlinks in markdown are broken

Closed

biscayneworks opened this issue

when exporting the results of a scrape, the markdown has broken hyperlinks such as:

[

Admin & Relations

](/careers_category/admin-relations)

is it possible to remove the unwanted space after [ and before ] so that the markdown is as expected?

Hello, and thank you for your interest in the Actor!

Website Content Crawler uses the Turndown library to convert from HTML to markdown. I have verified that the library behaves like you describe:

1import TurndownService from 'turndown';
2const str = `<a href="/careers/career-fields/admin-relations" class="promo-box tab-focus" style="background-image: url(&quot;https://content.nationalguard.com/sites/default/files/adminrelations2023.jpg&quot;);"><div class="inner"><h4 class="promo-title">Admin &amp; Relations</h4> <h6>
3         Learn more.
4         <i class="fas fa-chevron-right" aria-hidden="true"></i></h6></div> <div class="overlay"></div></a>`;
5const td = TurndownService({headingStyle: 'atx', codeBlockStyle: 'fenced'});
6td.turndown(str); // returns broken markdown link

I'm afraid that there is nothing we can do on our end. You can open an issue with turndown (https://github.com/mixmark-io/turndown), or you could remove the offending links completely with the removeElementsCssSelector option. Or you could ignore the markdown produced by Website Content Crawler and perform the conversion using a different tool after you download the dataset (using the HTML as input - you need to enable that with the "Save HTML" option).

Hope that helps!
