====================
Text from HTML field
====================
This module provides some technical features that allow to extract text from
any chunk of HTML, without HTML tags or attributes. You can chose either:
* To truncate the result by amount of words or characters.
* To append an ellipsis (or any character(s)) at the end of the result.
It can be used to easily generate excerpts.
Usage
=====
This module just adds a technical utility, but nothing for the end user.
If you are a developer and need this utility for your module, see these
examples and read the docs inside the code.
Python example::
@api.multi
def some_method(self):
# Get truncated text from an HTML field. It will 40 words and 100
# characters at most, and will have "..." appended at the end if it
# gets truncated.
truncated_text = self.env["ir.fields.converter"].text_from_html(
self.html_field, 40, 100, "...")
QWeb example::
<t t-esc="env['ir.fields.converter'].text_from_html(doc.html_field)"/>

Known issues / Roadmap
======================
* An option could be added to try to respect the basic HTML tags inside the
excerpt (``<b>``, ``<i>``, ``<p>``, etc.).
