| Called as (html:String)
when the HTML has been loaded, expected to return the mutated input |
| onMount
| Function
| el => null
| Called as (el:DomElement)
when the Dom element has been created but has not yet been added into the DOM, can mutate the input element |
clean(html, options)
import {clean} from '@momsfriendlydevco/embed-gdoc';
// OR
import clean from '@momsfriendlydevco/embed-gdoc/clean';
Take input HTML and return a "clean" version of the same fixing various issues. This is the actual worker of the other supplied functions.
Options are inherited from embedGDoc()
but also include:

html(html, options)
import {html} from '@momsfriendlydevco/embed-gdoc';
// OR
import html from '@momsfriendlydevco/embed-gdoc/html';
Similar to embedGDoc()
but return only the resulting HTML.
This function is used mainly for backend scripts which wish to clean up the resulting HTML before serving it directly.
Options are inherited from embedGDoc()
+ clean()
.
