Package Exports

inline-source
inline-source/lib/context
inline-source/lib/parse
inline-source/lib/run
inline-source/lib/utils

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (inline-source) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

inline-source

Inline and compress tags that contain the inline attribute. Supports <script>, <link>, and <img> (including *.svg sources) tags by default, and is easily extensible to handle others.

You can use inline-source-cli to run inline-source from the command line or NPM Scripts.

Usage

inline(htmlpath, [options], callback(err, html)): asynchronously parse htmlpath content for tags containing an inline attribute, and replace with (optionally compressed) file contents.

htmlpath can be either a filepath or a string of html content.

Available options include:

attribute: attribute used to parse sources (default inline)
compress: enable/disable compression of inlined content (default true)
fs: specify fs implementation (default is Node core fs)
handlers: specify custom handlers (default []) [see custom handlers]
ignore: disable inlining based on tag, type, and/or format (default [])
pretty: maintain leading whitespace when options.compress is false (default false)
rootpath: directory path used for resolving inlineable paths (default process.cwd())
swallowErrors: enable/disable suppression of errors (default false)
svgAsImage: convert <img inline src="*.svg" /> to <img> and not <svg> (default false)

$ npm install inline-source

var inline = require('inline-source')
  , fs = require('fs')
  , path = require('path')
  , htmlpath = path.resolve('project/src/html/index.html');

inline(htmlpath, {
  compress: true,
  rootpath: path.resolve('www'),
  // Skip all css types and png formats
  ignore: ['css', 'png']
}, function (err, html) {
  // Do something with html
});

inline.sync(htmlpath, [options]): same as inline, but synchronously returns string of html content.

var inline = require('inline-source').sync
  , fs = require('fs')
  , path = require('path')
  , htmlpath = path.resolve('project/src/html/index.html');

var html = inline(htmlpath, {
  compress: true,
  rootpath: path.resolve('www'),
  // Skip all script tags
  ignore: 'script'
});

Custom Handlers

Custom handlers are simple middleware-type functions that enable you to provide new, or override existing, inlining behaviour. All handlers have the following signature: function handler (source, context, next) {}

source: the current source object to act upon
- attributes: the parsed tag attributes object
- compress: the compress flag (may be overriden at the tag level via props)
- content: the processed fileContent string
- extension: the file extension
- fileContent: the loaded file content string
- filepath: the fully qualified path string
- format: the format string (jpg, gif, svg+xml, etc)
- match: the matched html tag string, including closing tag if appropriate
- props: the parsed namespaced attributes object (see props)
- replace: the tag wrapped content string to replace match
- tag: the tag string (script, link, etc)
- type: the content type based on type mime-type attribute, or tag (js for application/javascript, css for text/css, etc)
context: the global context object storing all configuration options (attribute, compress, ignore, pretty, rootpath, swallowErrors, svgAsImage), in addtion to:
- html: the html file's content string
- htmlpath: the html file's path string
- sources: the array of source objects
next(err): a function to be called to advance to the next middleware function. Accepts an optional error object with behaviour determined by swallowErrors flag (stops all processing if false, skips current source if true)

Custom handlers are inserted before the defaults, enabling overriding of default behaviour:

module.exports = function customjs (source, context, next) {
  if (source.fileContent
    && !source.content
    && (source.type == 'js')) {
      source.content = "Hey! I'm overriding the file's content!";
      next();
  } else {
    next();
  }
};

In general, default file content processing will be skipped if source.content is already set, and default wrapping of processed content will be skipped if source.replace is already set.

Props

Source props are a subset of attributes that are namespaced with the current global attribute ('inline' by default), and allow declaratively passing data or settings to handlers:

<script inline inline-foo="foo" inline-compress src="../js/inlineScript.js"></script>

module.exports = function customjs (source, context, next) {
  if (source.fileContent
    && !source.content
    && (source.type == 'js')) {
      // The `inline-compress` attribute automatically overrides the global flag
      if (source.compress) {
        // compress content
      }
      if (source.props.foo == 'foo') {
        // foo content
      }
      next();
  } else {
    next();
  }
};
