## Go-catdoc, get text and metadata from .doc files.

[![GoDoc](https://godoc.org/github.com/semvis123/go-catdoc?status.svg)](https://godoc.org/github.com/semvis123/go-catdoc)

[![Tests](https://github.com/semvis123/go-catdoc/actions/workflows/go.yml/badge.svg)](https://github.com/semvis123/go-catdoc/actions/workflows/go.yml)

Uses Wazero to run catdoc as webassembly in Go.

The catdoc source is slightly modified to support reading metadata in `.doc`.  

The `msdoc.hexpat` file is a pattern file for imhex that can parse the `summaryinformation` ole object inside the `.doc` file.

To compile the webassembly binary, go to ./catdoc/src/ and run `make catdoc-wasm`.  

To run the tests, do `go test ./...`

Usage:

```

f, err := os.Open("test.doc")

text, err := gocatdoc.GetTextFromFile(f)

```
