html-text-extractor

An HTML parsing library for Node.js, designed to extract text sections associated with anchor tags and headings from HTML files in a directory and its subdirectories. The extracted text is structured for indexing in a full-text search engine. The library produces an array of sections, each with properties for the URL (based on the file path), the anchor (if present), the title (based on the following heading tag), and the text.
