sanitizer()

sanitizer function creates an instance of Sanitize.Sanitizer and takes an optional parameter:

  • tagMap: Object — transforms mapped to tag names

Sanitize.Sanitizer

Interface declares a single sanitize() function which takes following arguments:

  • input: string — html input to sanitize
  • options: Sanitize.Options — an object with following keys:
    • sourceHost: string — hostname of a document source used by link transformer, it will be appended to links starting with "/" so src="/1.png" will become src="${sourceHost}/1.png". Defaults to empty string
    • sourcePath: string — path of a source document, it will be append to realtive links so href="next.html" will become href="${sourceHost}/${sourcePath}/next.html". Defaults to empty string

Customization

Parsing logic can be greatly altered by creating a new or modifying the default Sanitize.TagMap.

All you need to do is register your own function implementing Transforms.Transform interface within the tag map. Transfomations can be used as middleware functions by utilizing Transfomrs.chain() which takes an array of tranformations and runs is top down.

One may also consider writing custom Tags.Tag implmentation.
