### Development setup
To develop for Docling, you need Python 3.10 / 3.11 / 3.12 and Poetry. You can then install from your local clone's root dir:
```bash
poetry install
poetry install --all-extras
```
## Usage
For basic usage, see the [convert.py](https://github.com/DS4SD/docling/blob/main/examples/convert.py) example module. Run with:
### Convert a single document
To convert invidual PDF documents, use `convert_single()`, for example:
```python
from docling.document_converter import DocumentConverter
source = "https://arxiv.org/pdf/2206.01062" # PDF path or URL
converter = DocumentConverter()
doc = converter.convert_single(source)
print(doc.export_to_markdown()) # output: "## DocLayNet: A Large Human-Annotated Dataset for Document-Layout Analysis [...]"
```
### Convert a batch of documents
For an example of converting multiple documents, see [convert.py](https://github.com/DS4SD/docling/blob/main/examples/convert.py).
From a local repo clone, you can run it with:
```
python examples/convert.py
