Key Features

  • Nested Structure: Preserves HTML hierarchy in TOML tables
  • Attribute Support: Converts HTML attributes to TOML key-value pairs
  • Flat Mode: Option to flatten structure for simpler output
  • Metadata: Includes generation timestamp and comments
  • Link Extraction: Extracts all links into organized tables
  • Image Extraction: Captures image sources and alt text
  • Text Content: Preserves text content from HTML elements

How to Use

  1. Input HTML: Paste your HTML code or upload an .html file
  2. Configure Options: Choose structure and metadata options
  3. Review Output: The TOML output updates automatically
  4. Copy or Download: Use the Copy or Download button to save your .toml file

Output Modes

  • Nested Structure: Preserves full HTML hierarchy with nested tables
  • Flat Structure: Extracts content, links, and images into separate sections
  • With Attributes: Includes all HTML attributes in the output
  • With Metadata: Adds generation timestamp and comments

TOML Syntax Examples

# Nested structure example
[document]
title = "My Document"

[element_1]
tag = "h1"
text = "Main Heading"

[element_2]
tag = "p"
text = "Paragraph content"

[element_2.children.child_1]
tag = "strong"
text = "bold text"

# Flat structure example
[document]
title = "My Document"
content = "All text content..."

[[links]]
[links.link_1]
text = "Example"
url = "https://example.com"

Common Use Cases

  • Configuration Files: Convert HTML data to TOML config format
  • Data Export: Export HTML content as structured TOML
  • Content Migration: Migrate HTML content to TOML-based systems
  • Static Site Generators: Prepare content for TOML-based generators
  • API Configuration: Create API configs from HTML documentation
  • Metadata Extraction: Extract structured metadata from HTML

TOML Features

  • Tables: Organized sections with [table.name] syntax
  • Arrays: Multiple items with [[array]] syntax
  • Key-Value Pairs: Simple key = "value" format
  • Nested Tables: Dot notation for hierarchy (parent.child)
  • Multi-line Strings: Triple quotes for long text
  • Comments: Lines starting with # for documentation

Tips for Best Results

  • Choose Mode: Use nested for full structure, flat for simplified output
  • Clean HTML: Well-structured HTML produces better TOML
  • Attributes: Enable attributes to capture all HTML metadata
  • Review Output: Check the TOML syntax for your use case
  • Validate: Use a TOML validator to ensure valid output
