Usage

As a package

This is a simple example to read all paragraphs.

package main

import "github.com/tenkoh/go-docc"

func main(){
    fp := filepath.Clean("./target.docx")
    r, err := NewReader(fp)
    if err != nil {
        panic(err)
    }
    defer r.Close()
    ps, _ := r.ReadAll()
    // do something with ps:[]string
}

If you want read the document by a paragraph, the below example is useful.

package main

import "github.com/tenkoh/go-docc"

func main(){
    fp := filepath.Clean("./target.docx")
    r, err := NewReader(fp)
    if err != nil {
        panic(err)
    }
    defer r.Close()
    
    for {
        p, err := r.Read()
        if err == io.EOF {
            return
        } else if err != nil {
            panic(err)
        }
        // do something with p:string
    }
}

Before compiling, you shall execute go mod tidy or go get github.com/tenkoh/go-doccto get this package.
