safe-html-rewriter

Safe (fault-tolerant) wrapper around WebAssembly version of Cloudlflare HTMLRewriter^1

import { HTMLRewriter, type RewriterHandlers } from "npm:safe-html-rewriter";
import { expandGlob } from "https://deno.land/std/fs/mod.ts";

const rewrite = new HTMLRewriter();

const handler = {
  element(el) { el.remove() }
} satisfies RewriterHandlers

for await (const { path } of expandGlob("your/index.{html,njk,jinja,tmpl}")) {
  const content = await Deno.readTextFile(path);

  rewrite.on('script[src*="unwanted-script"]', handler); // share same handler

  rewrite.on('link[rel="stylesheet",href*="unwanted-css"]', { // single selector with many handlers
    element(el) {
      el.remove()
      console.log(`remove ${el.getAttribute(href)} from ${path}`)
      console.log("--------------------------------------------")
      console.log(content)
      console.log("--------------------------------------------")
    }
  });

  const output = await rewrite.transform(content);
  console.log("\n", path);
  console.log("-------------------------------------------------------------");
  console.log(output);
  console.log("-------------------------------------------------------------");
}
rewrite.off('script[src*="unwanted-script"]', handler); // only remove specific handler
rewrite.off('link[rel="stylesheet",href*="unwanted-css"]'); // remove all handlers for specific selector

rewrite.free(); // remove all handlers and free memory

Why?

html-rewriter-wasm designed to operate on per-chunk basis which is suitable for streaming response. However, it can be tricky when you use it in non-streaming response. For example, adding another handler after calling rewriter.write will give an error. This package solve that and also give you an easier API.
