Get Google Document as HTML

Question

I had a wild idea that I could build a website blog for an unsophisticated user friend using Google Drive Documents to back it. I was able to create a contentService that compiles a list of documents. However, I can't see a way to convert the document to HTML. I know that Google can render documents in a web page, so I wondered if it was possible to get a rendered version for use in my content service.

Is this possible?

You can try this code :

  function getGoogleDocumentAsHTML(){
  var id = DocumentApp.getActiveDocument().getId() ;
  var forDriveScope = DriveApp.getStorageUsed(); //needed to get Drive Scope requested
  var url = "https://docs.google.com/feeds/download/documents/export/Export?id="+id+"&exportFormat=html";
  var param = {
    method      : "get",
    headers     : {"Authorization": "Bearer " + ScriptApp.getOAuthToken()},
    muteHttpExceptions:true,
  };
  var html = UrlFetchApp.fetch(url,param).getContentText();
  Logger.log(html);
}
