Overview

HTML filter with sanization routines and whitelists. This module defines what HTML is allowed in user provided content and fixes up issues with unbalanced tags and whatnot.

See the Sanitize docs for more information on the underlying library:

github.com/rgrove/sanitize/#readme

Context options:

:whitelist      - The sanitizer whitelist configuration to use. This
                  can be one of the options constants defined in this
                  class or a custom sanitize options hash.
:anchor_schemes - The URL schemes to allow in <a href> attributes. The
                  default set is provided in the ANCHOR_SCHEMES
                  constant in this class. If passed, this overrides any
                  schemes specified in the whitelist configuration.

This filter does not write additional information to the context.

Constant Summary collapse

LISTS =
Set.new(%w(ul ol).freeze)
LIST_ITEM =
'li'.freeze
TABLE_ITEMS =

List of table child elements. These must be contained by a <table> element or they are not allowed through. Otherwise they can be used to break out of places we’re using tables to contain formatted user content (like pull request review comments).

Set.new(%w(tr td th).freeze)
TABLE =
'table'.freeze
TABLE_SECTIONS =
Set.new(%w(thead tbody tfoot).freeze)
ANCHOR_SCHEMES =

These schemes are the only ones allowed in <a href> attributes by default.

['http', 'https', 'mailto', :relative, 'github-windows', 'github-mac'].freeze
WHITELIST =

The main sanitization whitelist. Only these elements and attributes are allowed through by default.

LIMITED =

A more limited sanitization whitelist. This includes all attributes, protocols, and transformers from WHITELIST but with a more locked down set of allowed elements.

WHITELIST.merge(
:elements => %w(b i strong em a pre code img ins del sup sub p ol ul li))
FULL =

Strip all HTML tags from the document.

{ :elements => [] }

def call
  Sanitize.clean_node!(doc, whitelist)
end

#whitelistObject
