# TYPO3 HTML Sanitizer

> :warning: This package is still experimental, common safe HTML tags & attributes
> as given in [`\TYPO3\HtmlSanitizer\Builder\CommonBuilder`](src/Builder/CommonBuilder.php)
> still might be adjusted.
## In a Nutshell

+ [`\TYPO3\HtmlSanitizer\Behavior`](src/Behavior.php) contains declarative settings for
a particular process for sanitizing HTML.
+ [`\TYPO3\HtmlSanitizer\Visitor\VisitorInterface`](src/Visitor/VisitorInterface.php)
(multiple different visitors can exist at the same time) are actually doing the work
based on the declared `Behavior`. Visitors can modify nodes or mark them for deletion.
+ [`\TYPO3\HtmlSanitizer\Sanitizer`](src/Sanitizer.php) can be considered as the working
instance, invoking visitors, parsing and serializing HTML. In general this instance does
not contain much logic on how to handle particular nodes, attributes or values
+ [`\TYPO3\HtmlSanitizer\Builder\BuilderInterface`](src/Builder/BuilderInterface.php) can
be used to create multiple different builder instances - in terms of "presets" - which
combine declaring a particular `Behavior`, initialization of `VisitorInterface` instances,
and finally returning a ready-to-use `Sanitizer` instance

## Example & API

```php
<?php
use TYPO3\HtmlSanitizer\Behavior;
use TYPO3\HtmlSanitizer\Sanitizer;
use TYPO3\HtmlSanitizer\Visitor\CommonVisitor;

require_once 'vendor/autoload.php';

$commonAttrs = [
new Behavior\Attr('id'),
new Behavior\Attr('class'),
new Behavior\Attr('data-', Behavior\Attr::NAME_PREFIX),
];
$hrefAttr = (new Behavior\Attr('href'))
->addValues(new Behavior\RegExpAttrValue('#^https?://#'));

// attention: only `Behavior` implementation uses immutability
// (invoking `withFlags()` or `withTags()` returns new instance)
$behavior = (new Behavior())
->withFlags(Behavior::ENCODE_INVALID_TAG)
->withTags(
(new Behavior\Tag('div', Behavior\Tag::ALLOW_CHILDREN))
->addAttrs(...$commonAttrs),
(new Behavior\Tag('a', Behavior\Tag::ALLOW_CHILDREN))
->addAttrs($hrefAttr, ...$commonAttrs),
(new Behavior\Tag('br')),
);

$visitors = [new CommonVisitor($behavior)];
$sanitizer = new Sanitizer(...$visitors);

$html = <<< EOH
<div id="main">
<a href="https://typo3.org/" data-type="url" wrong-attr="is-removed">TYPO3</a><br>
(the <span>SPAN, SPAN, SPAN</span> tag shall be encoded to HTML entities)
</div>
EOH;

echo $sanitizer->sanitize($html);
```

will result in the following sanitized output

```html
<div id="main">
<a data-type="url">TYPO3</a><br>
(the &lt;span&gt;SPAN, SPAN, SPAN&lt;/span&gt; tag shall be encoded to HTML entities)
</div>
```

### `Behavior` flags

* `Behavior::ENCODE_INVALID_TAG` keeps invalid tags, but "disarms" them (see `<span>` in example)
* `Behavior::ENCODE_INVALID_ATTR` keeps invalid attributes, but "disarms" the whole(!) tag
* `Behavior::REMOVE_UNEXPECTED_CHILDREN` removes children for `Tag` entities that were created
without explicitly using `Tag::ALLOW_CHILDREN`, but actually contained child nodes
* `Behavior::ALLOW_CUSTOM_ELEMENTS` allow using custom elements (having a hyphen `-`) - however,
it is suggested to explicitly name all known and allowed tags and avoid using this flag
