htmlfy v0.2.1

htmlfy

HTML formatter yo! Prettify, minify and more!

htmlfy is a fork of html-formatter. Most of the processing logic has been preserved, and full credit for that goes to the original author. I've made the following major enhancements.

• Fully typed.
• Converted to ESM.
• Configuration options.
• A lot of naming changes.

Install

npm install htmlfy

API

Prettify

Turn single-line or ugly HTML into highly formatted HTML. This is a wrapper for all other functions, and then it adds indentation.

import { prettify } from 'htmlfy'

const html = `<main class="hello   there world"><div>Welcome to htmlfy!  </div></main>`
console.log(prettify(html))
/*
<main class="hello there world">
  <div>
    Welcome to htmlfy!
  </div>
</main>
*/

Minify

Turn well-formatted or ugly HTML into a single-line of HTML.

import { minify } from 'htmlfy'

const html = 
`<main class="hello there world">
  <div>
    Welcome to htmlfy!
  </div>
</main>`
console.log(minify(html))
/*
<main class="hello there world"><div>Welcome to htmlfy!</div></main>
*/

Closify

Ensure void elements are "self-closing".

import { closify } from 'htmlfy'

const html = `<br><input type="text">`
console.log(closify(html))
/*
<br /><input type="text" />
*/

Entify

Enforce entity characters for textarea content. This also performs basic minification on textareas before setting entities. When running this function as a standalone, you'll likely want to pass minify as true for full minification of the textarea. The minification does not process any other tags.

import { entify } from 'htmlfy'

const html = `<main class="hello   there world"><div>Welcome to htmlfy!  </div></main><textarea  >

Did   you know that 3 >   2?

This is another paragraph.   


</textarea><textarea class="  more  stuff  ">    </textarea>`
console.log(entify(html, true))
/*
<main class="hello   there world"><div>Welcome to htmlfy!  </div></main><textarea>Did you know that 3 &gt; 2?&#13;&#13;This is another paragraph.</textarea><textarea class="more stuff"></textarea>
*/

Default Import

If needed, you can use a default import for htmlfy.

import * as htmlfy from 'htmlfy'

console.log(htmlfy.prettify('<main><div>Hello World</div></main'))

Configuration

These configuration options can only be passed to prettify.

Default config:

{
  strict: false,
  tab_size: 2
}

Strict

If set to true, removes comments and ensures void elements are not self-closing.

import { prettify } from 'htmlfy'

const html = `<main><br /><div><!-- Hello World --></div></main>`
console.log(prettify(html, { strict: true }))
/*
<main>
  <br>
  <div></div>
</main>
*/

Tab Size

Determines the number of spaces, per tab, for indentation.

import { prettify } from 'htmlfy'

const html = `<main class="hello   there world"><div>Welcome to htmlfy!  </div></main>`
console.log(prettify(html, { tab_size: 4 }))
/*
<main class="hello there world">
    <div>
        Welcome to htmlfy!
    </div>
</main>
*/
