metalsmith-dom-transform v2.0.1

metalsmith-dom-transform

Infrastructure plugin for transforming page DOM via jsdom. Use this for small tweaks, or build your plugin on top of this one.

Example

const domTransform = require('metalsmith-dom-transform');

metalsmith.use(
  domTransform({
    transforms: [
      // Set target=_blank on all links
      function(dom, file, {files, metalsmith}, done) {
        Array.from(dom.querySelectorAll('a[href]')).forEach(link => {
          link.target = '_blank';
        });

        done();
      },

      // Make all images 200px wide
      function(dom, file, {files, metalsmith}, done) {
        Array.from(dom.querySelectorAll('img')).forEach(img => {
          img.width = 200;
        });

        done();
      },

      // Remove all <iframe> elements
      function(dom, file, {files, metalsmith}, done) {
        Array.from(dom.querySelectorAll('iframe')).forEach(iframe => {
          iframe.remove();
        });

        done();
      }
    ]
  })
);

Configuration

There is currently only one option:

• transforms: array of functions that serve as DOM transformations. Each function takes three arguments:
  • dom: The root of the DOM for that page
  • file: File path for the page being transformed
  • info: Object that holds the same arguments passed to all metalsmith plugins, namely:
    • files: Dictionary of all files being processed by this metalsmith instance
    • metalsmith: Metalsmith instance
  • done: Callback for transformation completion

Requirements

Uses async/await, so requires a relatively recent (8.x or higher) version of node.
