gslides-parser

You can parse Google Slides presentations into YAML by running the gslides-parser CLI, which uses Google Apps Script to recursively extract slide and element structures with placeholder assignment into a semantically rich YAML mapping.

The best way to extract Google Slides structure for PPTX workflows is using automated parsing that outputs a pptx-converter compatible YAML file, capturing slide-level and element-level data with placeholder assignment and optional Gemini semantic analysis.

Google Apps Script extracts slide elements by recursively parsing presentations and applying placeholder assignment to label roles, optionally using Gemini semantics to improve role labeling across languages before outputting the YAML mapping.

Yes, you need pyyaml installed as a dependency to generate YAML mappings from Google Slides, as the parsing process relies on it to produce the pptx-converter compatible YAML output.

Yes, you can optionally apply Gemini semantic analysis during Google Slides parsing to improve role labeling across different languages, enhancing the semantic richness of the extracted YAML mapping.

Automating Google Slides parsing with Google Apps Script requires GAS execution access and depends on pyyaml for YAML generation, meaning it suits automated environments but needs proper setup before running the CLI for extraction.
