Load document from url Leave feedback

To avoid the overhead of saving documents to the disk, GroupDocs.Parser enables to extract data from url directly.

The following example shows how to load the document from the url:

// Create an instance of Parser class with the url
using (Parser parser = new Parser(url))
{
    // Extract a text into the reader
    using (TextReader reader = parser.GetText())
    {
        // Print a text from the document
        // If text extraction isn't supported, a reader is null
        Console.WriteLine(reader == null ? "Text extraction isn't supported" : reader.ReadToEnd());
    }
}

Note

This constructor makes GroupDocs.Parser download the document itself. If the URL comes from untrusted input, validate it before use. See Network access and data privacy for the full list of situations in which the library performs outbound network requests.
