What is this?
This is like rehype-stringify
but for browsers.
This plugin uses DOM APIs to do its work, which makes it smaller in browsers, at
the cost of not supporting formatting options.
When should I use this?
Use this package when you want to use rehype-stringify
solely in browsers.
See the monorepo readme for info on when to use rehype-dom
.
This plugin is built on hast-util-to-dom
, which is a low
level tool to turn hast syntax trees into DOM nodes.
rehype focusses on making it easier to transform content by abstracting such
internals away.
Install
This package is ESM only. In Node.js (version 16+), install with npm:
npm install rehype-dom-stringify
In Deno with esm.sh
:
import rehypeDomStringify from 'https://esm.sh/rehype-dom-stringify@4'
In browsers with esm.sh
:
<script type="module">
import rehypeDomStringify from 'https://esm.sh/rehype-dom-stringify@4?bundle'
</script>
Use
Say our page example.html
contains:
<!doctype html>
<title>Example</title>
<body>
<script type="module">
import remarkParse from 'https://esm.sh/remark-parse@11?bundle'
import remarkRehype from 'https://esm.sh/remark-rehype@11?bundle'
import rehypeDomStringify from 'https://esm.sh/rehype-dom-stringify@4?bundle'
import {unified} from 'https://esm.sh/unified@11?bundle'
const file = await unified()
.use(remarkParse)
.use(remarkRehype)
.use(rehypeDomStringify)
.process('# Hello, world!')
console.log(String(file))
</script>
…opening it in a browser prints the following to the browser console:
<h1>Hello, world!</h1>
API
This package exports no identifiers.
The default export is rehypeDomStringify
.
unified().use(rehypeDomStringify[, options])
Add support for serializing as HTML with DOM APIs.
Parameters
options
(Options
, optional) — configuration
Returns
Transform (Transformer
).
Options
Configuration (TypeScript type).
👉 Note: the default of the
fragment
option istrue
in this package, which is different from the value inrehype-parse
, as this makes more sense in browsers.
Fields
fragment
(boolean
, default:true
) — specify whether to serialize a fragmentnamespace
(string
, optional) — namespace to start with
Syntax
HTML is parsed and serialized according to what a browser supports (which should be WHATWG HTML).
Syntax tree
The syntax tree used in rehype is hast.
Types
This package is fully typed with TypeScript.
It exports the additional type Options
.
It also registers Settings
with unified
.
If you’re passing options with .data('settings', …)
, make sure to import this
package somewhere in your types, as that registers the fields.
/**
* @import {} from 'rehype-dom-stringify'
*/
import {unified} from 'unified'
// @ts-expect-error: `thisDoesNotExist` is not a valid option.
unified().data('settings', {thisDoesNotExist: false})
Compatibility
Projects maintained by the unified collective are compatible with maintained versions of Node.js.
When we cut a new major release, we drop support for unmaintained versions of
Node.
This means we try to keep the current release line,
rehype-dom-stringify@^4
, compatible with Node.js 16.
Security
Use of rehype-dom-stringify
can open you up to a cross-site scripting
(XSS) attack if dangerous content is used and the result is used with
the actual DOM.
Use rehype-sanitize
to solve that.
