doc-to-text

# Doc To Text Extract plain readable text from Word (.doc/.docx) documents using MinerU. MinerU outputs Markdown, which is the closest format to plain text it supports. ## Install ```bash npm install -g mineru-open-api # or via Go (macOS/Linux): go install github.com/opendatalab/MinerU-Ecosystem/cli/mineru-open-api@latest ``` ## Quick Start ```bash # Extract text from .docx to stdout (no token required) mineru-open-api flash-extract report.docx # Save to file mineru-open-api flash-extract report.docx -o ./out/ # Extract .doc (requires token) mineru-open-api extract report.doc -o ./out/ # JSON output contains plain text fields (requires token) mineru-open-api extract report.docx -f json -o ./out/ ``` ## Authentication No token needed for `flash-extract` on `.docx`. Token required for `.doc` and `extract`: ```bash mineru-open-api auth # Interactive token setup export MINERU_TOKEN="your-token" # Or via environment variable ``` Create token at: https://mineru.net/apiManage/token ## Capabilities - Supported input: .doc, .docx (local file or URL) - `.docx`: supports `flash-extract` (no token, Markdown output to stdout) - `.doc`: requires `extract` with token - For truly plain text: use `extract -f json` and read the text fields from the JSON output - Language hint with `--language` (default: `ch`, use `en` for English) ## Notes - MinerU does not have a `-f text` option; Markdown is the closest to plain text - `.doc` requires `extract` with token; `.docx` works with `flash-extract` - Output goes to stdout by default; use `-o <dir>` to save to a file or directory - All progress/status messages go to stderr; document content goes to stdout - MinerU is open-source by OpenDataLab (Shanghai AI Lab): https://github.com/opendatalab/MinerU
