Inline remote assets plugin for Pattern Lab Node

| :point_up: | This is a fork from plugin-node-patternlab-inline-assets that is mainly meant to provide the functionality to inline remote assets. | | ---------- | :----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |

The remote inline assets plugin for Pattern Lab Node can be used to inline assets into your templates.

Installation

Add the inline assets plugin to your project using npm:

npm install --save plugin-node-patternlab-inline-remote-assets

After that tell Pattern Lab to install the plugin:

gulp patternlab:installplugin --plugin=plugin-node-patternlab-inline-remote-assets

which will install and enable the plugin. You're now ready to use it.

Configuration

Post-installation, you will see the following in your patternlab-config.json:

"plugins": {
  "plugin-node-patternlab-inline-remote-assets": {
    "enabled": true,
    "initialized": false,
    "options": {}
  }
}

Elsewhere please add the plugin-node-patternlab-inline-remote-assets entry manually to the plugins entry.

Usage

Use three curly brackets to tell handlebars to stop escaping, then call the inline plugin and pass a path to your asset, as well as an alternative text (rendered as alt-attribute for images).

{{{inline-remote-asset 'https://img.shields.io/npm/v/plugin-node-patternlab-inline-remote-assets.svg' 'Alternative text'}}}

The remote asset will then be inlined into your template before compiling.

Differentiating in between images and other assets

All images contents would get base64 encoded and inserted as <img width=… height=… alt=…> tags. Other filetypes are getting outputted sanitized by dompurify directly.
