Hi, I am trying to use your parser, but I am running into error. Maybe you have an idea how to fix it?

HR manager:

• My stack for today are: .gitkeep, resume.html, resume.txt
  Parse Boy:
• Hi, i can help you with .gitkeep, resume.html, resume.txt

@wsuphappyhour hi! try to remove .gitkeep file

[wsuphappyhour]

Hi, thanks for swift replay. Your suggestion discarded errors, but one remains:

(node:3348) DeprecationWarning: util.print is deprecated. Use console.log instead.

Thanks

I also tested on Ubuntu it does not throw same error, but output is null.

[likerRr]

@wsuphappyhour it's not a error, it's just a warning, so ignore it. The null output needs investigations. Sorry, but currently I have no time for this. I would thank you if you investigate the issue and make a PR

[wsuphappyhour]

Ok, thanks

i meet with the same error, and find that the reason is 'download from linkedin.com response the http status 999', so error is null. sorry for my poor english.
src/dictionary.js

function download(url, callback) {
  request(url, function (error, response, body) {
    if (!error && response.statusCode == 200) {
      callback(body);
    } else {
console.log(response.statusCode);
      callback(null, error)
    }
  });
}

[cekimy]

@wsuphappyhour so, just comment out or delete profiles in src/dictionary.js

profiles: [
]

[wsuphappyhour]

@cekimy Great that works, thank you so much!
Have a nice day

How will i parse pdf resume

[likerRr]

@rahul177 make sure you match the requirements for extracting pdf

[likerRr]

@rahul177 have you had success with pdf parsing?

[rahul177]

No @likerRr

[rahul177]

I want results in xml format not in json format. Can you help me for the same ?

[likerRr]

@rahul177 the lib doesn't provide such ability. Try to find converter from json to xml on npm.

[rahul177]

@likerRr Thanks for reply. I got the results in xml format. I used xml2js packages.

@likerRr Can you give steps for pdf and docs parsing ?

Thanks

[likerRr]

@rahul177 I haven't tried it. Read the docs and try to follow them, thanks

[rahul177]

@likerRr Success with pdf parsing. Steps:
i) Go to link http://www.foolabs.com/xpdf/download.html
ii) Download zip
iii) Extract it and add Path in Environment variables.

[likerRr]

@rahul177 glad to hear that!

[rahul177]

@likerRr I have one question :
i) I want first name and last name instead of full name. How we will get the same ?

Thanks

[rahul177]

How we will edit the dictionary.js for getting first name and last name ?

[likerRr]

Just split fullname into parts, like:

// es6 
const [firstname, lastName] = fullname.split(' ')

tnx @rahul177 pdf #extractor how you did that one
