A single piece of document content.

Variants

Heading

A heading. level is 1-6.

Fields

level: u8

text: String

Paragraph

A run of body text.

Fields

text: String

ListItem

A single list item at the given nesting level (0 = top). For ordered items, number is the display number (honoring the list’s start); it is unused for unordered items. first_in_list marks the first item of a list so the serializer can blank-line-separate adjacent sibling lists.

marker is the DocLang enumeration marker ("1.", "1.1.", …) when the backend provides one — HTML and DOCX set it for enumerated items, so DocLang emits <ldiv><marker>…</marker></ldiv>; Markdown and the other declarative backends leave it None, giving a bare <ldiv/> (matching docling, whose Markdown backend passes no marker).

Fields

ordered: bool

number: u64

first_in_list: bool

text: String

level: u8

marker: Option<String>

Code

A fenced code block.

Fields

language: Option<String>

text: String

Table(Table)

A table. The first row is treated as the header.

Picture

A picture/figure, with an optional caption and (when a backend extracts it) the embedded image itself.

Fields

caption: Option<String>

image: Option<PictureImage>

Group

A logical grouping of child nodes (e.g. a list, a section).

Fields

label: String

children: Vec<Node>

FieldRegion

A form key-value region (docling’s field_region): a set of form fields, each pairing an optional marker, key, and value. Backends detect these from form structure (e.g. HTML’s keyN / keyN_valueM / keyN_marker id-convention); the serializers render each item’s parts as separate labelled texts (marker / field_key / field_value).

Fields

items: Vec<FieldItem>

InlineGroup

Rich inline content — docling’s InlineGroup: a run of styled text segments that a backend captured with formatting (<bold>, <italic>, <underline>, <strikethrough>, sub/superscript, inline <code>) the flat Markdown text cannot represent. Markdown/JSON render this exactly like Paragraph { text: md_text } (so their output is unchanged); the DocLang serializer uses the structured runs. unwrapped is set when the group’s docling parent is a heading/text (no enclosing <text> wrapper).

Fields

unwrapped: bool

runs: Vec<InlineRun>

md_text: String

Furniture(Box<Node>)

A node in docling’s furniture content layer (page headers/footers, the HTML <title>, …). Markdown and JSON omit furniture by default; DocLang renders the wrapped node with a <layer value="furniture"/> head.

Located

A node carrying layout provenance — the four DocLang <location> values (x0,y0,x1,y1, normalized to 0–511) docling attaches to elements from backends with real geometry (e.g. the slide shapes in PPTX). Markdown and JSON render the wrapped node unchanged; DocLang emits the <location> tokens as the element’s first children.

Fields

location: [u16; 4]

inner: Box<Node>

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for Node

fn clone(&self) -> Node

Returns a duplicate of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Debug for Node

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl PartialEq for Node

fn eq(&self, other: &Node) -> bool

Tests for self and other values to be equal, and is used by ==.

fn ne(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests for !=. The default implementation is almost always sufficient, and should not be overridden without very good reason.

impl StructuralPartialEq for Node
