Handling Complex Headings

It appears that headings with any sort of complexity (i.e. part bold, part normal) are being split and not fully processed. An example would be a simple document such as this:

Expected Behavior

I would expect this to render as:

##  **Part Bold** Part Not\n\n\nSome other text\n

or in HTML as:

<h2><strong>Part Bold<strong> Part Not</h2>\n<p>Some other text</p>

Actual Behavior

The “Part Bold” item is omitted from the output. Renders as:

##  Part Not\n\n\nSome other text\n

and

<h2>Part Not</h2>\n<p>Some other text</p>

Info

Here is an example query in Gatsby:

{
  googleDocs(slug: {eq: "/debug"}) {
    childMarkdownRemark {
      rawMarkdownBody
      html
    }
    document {
      body {
        content {
          paragraph {
            paragraphStyle {
              namedStyleType
            }
            elements {
              textRun {
                content
              }
            }
          }
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

and the resulting output, which shows that the “Part Bold” item is in the Google Docs API response:

{
  "data": {
    "googleDocs": {
      "childMarkdownRemark": {
        "rawMarkdownBody": "##  Part Not\n\n\nSome other text\n",
        "html": "<h2>Part Not</h2>\n<p>Some other text</p>"
      },
      "document": {
        "body": {
          "content": [
            {
              "paragraph": null
            },
            {
              "paragraph": {
                "paragraphStyle": {
                  "namedStyleType": "HEADING_1"
                },
                "elements": [
                  {
                    "textRun": {
                      "content": "Part Bold"
                    }
                  },
                  {
                    "textRun": {
                      "content": " Part Not\n"
                    }
                  }
                ]
              }
            },
            {
              "paragraph": {
                "paragraphStyle": {
                  "namedStyleType": "NORMAL_TEXT"
                },
                "elements": [
                  {
                    "textRun": {
                      "content": "Some other text\n"
                    }
                  }
                ]
              }
            }
          ]
        }
      }
    }
  },
  "extensions": {}
}

If you think the expected behavior is correct and can give some pointers as to where to start looking, I’d be happy to submit a pull request with a fix

Thank you for reporting this! There was a bug with all options. It’s now resolved with 2.0.1 version.

It strange that demoteHeadings option change the behaviour because it should just change the title level.

For the “bold” case, there is a specific case. Unfortunately, Google Docs default headings are bold. So bold is disabled for headings here to avoid DOM to be <h2><b>Heading</b></h2> all the time. I think heading should be style using css h2 { font-weight: bold } for example.

But for your use case, “Part Bold” text should be there!
