Configuration naming
|
|
|
|
HTML Purifier 4.0.0 features a new configuration naming system that
|
|
allows arbitrary nesting of namespaces. While there are certain cases
|
|
in which using two namespaces is obviously better (the canonical example
|
|
is where we were using AutoFormatParam to contain directives for AutoFormat
|
|
parameters), it is unclear whether or not a general migration to highly
|
|
namespaced directives is a good idea or not.
|
|
|
|
== Case studies ==
|
|
|
|
=== Attr.* ===
|
|
|
|
We have a dead duck HTML.Attr.Name.UseCDATA which migrated before we decided
|
|
to think this out thoroughly.
|
|
|
|
We currently have a large number of directives in the Attr.* namespace.
|
|
These directives tweak the behavior of some HTML attributes. They have
|
|
the properties:
|
|
|
|
* While they apply to only one attribute at a time, the attribute can
|
|
span over multiple elements (not necessarily all attributes, either).
|
|
The information of which elements it impacts is either omitted or
|
|
informally stated (EnableID applies to all elements, DefaultImageAlt
|
|
applies to <img> tags, AllowedRev doesn't say but only applies to a tags).
|
|
|
|
* There is a certain degree of clustering that could be applied, especially
|
|
to the ID directives. The clustering could be done with respect to
|
|
what element/attribute was used, i.e.
|
|
|
|
*.id -> EnableID, IDBlacklistRegexp, IDBlacklist, IDPrefixLocal, IDPrefix
|
|
img.src -> DefaultInvalidImage
|
|
img.alt -> DefaultImageAlt, DefaultInvalidImageAlt
|
|
bdo.dir -> DefaultTextDir
|
|
a.rel -> AllowedRel
|
|
a.rev -> AllowedRev
|
|
a.target -> AllowedFrameTargets
|
|
a.name -> Name.UseCDATA
|
|
|
|
* The directives often reference generic attribute types that were specified
|
|
in the DTD/specification. However, some of the behavior specifically relies
|
|
on the fact that other use cases of the attribute are not, at current,
|
|
supported by HTML Purifier.
|
|
|
|
AllowedRel, AllowedRev -> heavily <a> specific; if <link> ends up being
|
|
allowed, we will also have to give users specificity there (we also
|
|
want to preserve generality) DTD %Linktypes, HTML5 distinguishes
|
|
between <link> and <a>/<area>
|
|
AllowedFrameTargets -> heavily <a> specific, but also used by <area>
|
|
and <form>. Transitional DTD %FrameTarget, not present in strict,
|
|
HTML5 calls them "browsing contexts"
|
|
Default*Image* -> as a default parameter, is almost entirely exlcusive
|
|
to <img>
|
|
EnableID -> global attribute
|
|
Name.UseCDATA -> heavily <a> specific, but has heavy other usage by
|
|
many things
|
|
|
|
== AutoFormat.* ==
|
|
|
|
These have the fairly normal pluggable architecture that lends itself to
|
|
large amounts of namespaces (pluggability may be the key to figuring
|
|
out when gratuitous namespacing is good.) Properties:
|
|
|
|
* Boolean directives are fair game for being namespaced: for example,
|
|
RemoveEmpty.RemoveNbsp triggers RemoveEmpty.RemoveNbsp.Exceptions,
|
|
the latter of which only makes sense when RemoveEmpty.RemoveNbsp
|
|
is set to true. (The same applies to RemoveNbsp too)
|
|
|
|
The AutoFormat string is a bit long, but is the only bit of repeated
|
|
context.
|
|
|
|
== Core.* ==
|
|
|
|
Core is the potpourri of directives, mostly regarding some minor behavioral
|
|
tweaks for HTML handling abilities.
