Google Script - Running on Google Docs

Question

I am wanting to deploy a Google Script project from a Google Document where the text from the Google Doc is displayed to a particular region of an index.html file. Is there any way to do so? I would be very curious to learn.

<html>
<h1> Header </h1>
[Google Document Code Goes Here.]
</html>

Yes, all of it. It doesn't have to be spaced out the same way though. — William Garske

That will be a fair amount of work even if you know what you're doing. You might want to look for some addons that already exist. I don't know of any because I never use them. — Cooper

It's pretty simple if you don't want the format. You can get the body text and put it into a textarea. — Cooper

This is a simple dialog that displays the text from a google document to a textarea tag in an html dialog.

function displaytestintextarea() {
  const doc = DocumentApp.getActiveDocument();
  const body = doc.getBody();
  const text = body.getText();
  DocumentApp.getUi().showModelessDialog(HtmlService.createHtmlOutput(`<textarea row="25" cols="50">${text}</textarea>`),"Text in TextArea");
}

In this situation it's not required to provide the entire html.

You can resize it to anysize you wish.
