(transform href links) $converter->setPreProcessingCallback(fn (string $s) => preg_replace('%<\s*a[^>]*href=[\'"](.*?)[\'"][^>]*>([\s\S]*?)<\/\s*a\s*>%i', '$2 ($1)', $s)); # assign a tag-replacement callback function. (replace <li> tags) $converter->setTagReplacementCallback(fn (string $s) => preg_replace('/<\s*li[^>]*>/i', "\n- ", $s)); # post-processing hook $converter->setPostProcessingCallback(...); # process HTML echo $converter->convert($html);
