Class Safelist

    • Constructor Detail

      • Safelist

        public Safelist​(Safelist copy)
        Deep copy an existing Safelist to a new Safelist.
        Parameters:
        copy - the Safelist to copy
    • Method Detail

      • none

        public static Safelist none()
        This safelist allows only text nodes: any HTML Element or any Node other than a TextNode will be removed.

        Note that the output of Jsoup.clean(String, Safelist) is still HTML even when using this Safelist, and so any HTML entities in the output will be appropriately escaped. If you want plain text, not HTML, you should use a text method such as Element.text() instead, after cleaning the document.

        Example:

        
             String sourceBodyHtml = "<p>5 is &lt; 6.</p>";
             String html = Jsoup.clean(sourceBodyHtml, Safelist.none());
        
             Cleaner cleaner = new Cleaner(Safelist.none());
             String text = cleaner.clean(Jsoup.parse(sourceBodyHtml)).text();
        
             // html is: 5 is &lt; 6.
             // text is: 5 is < 6.
             
        Returns:
        safelist
      • simpleText

        public static Safelist simpleText()
        This safelist allows only simple text formatting: b, em, i, strong, u. All other HTML (tags and attributes) will be removed.
        Returns:
        safelist
      • basic

        public static Safelist basic()

        This safelist allows a fuller range of text nodes: a, b, blockquote, br, cite, code, dd, dl, dt, em, i, li, ol, p, pre, q, small, span, strike, strong, sub, sup, u, ul, and appropriate attributes.

        Links (a elements) can point to http, https, ftp, mailto, and have an enforced rel=nofollow attribute.

        Does not allow images.

        Returns:
        safelist
      • basicWithImages

        public static Safelist basicWithImages()
        This safelist allows the same text tags as basic(), and also allows img tags, with appropriate attributes, with src pointing to http or https.
        Returns:
        safelist
      • relaxed

        public static Safelist relaxed()
        This safelist allows a full range of text and structural body HTML: a, b, blockquote, br, caption, cite, code, col, colgroup, dd, div, dl, dt, em, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, i, img, li, ol, p, pre, q, small, span, strike, strong, sub, sup, table, tbody, td, tfoot, th, thead, tr, u, ul

        Links do not have an enforced rel=nofollow attribute, but you can add that if desired.

        Returns:
        safelist
      • addTags

        public Safelist addTags​(java.lang.String... tags)

        Returns:
        this (for chaining)
      • removeTags

        public Safelist removeTags​(java.lang.String... tags)

        Add a list of allowed attributes to a tag. (If an attribute is not allowed on an element, it will be removed.)

        E.g.: addAttributes("a", "href", "class") allows href and class attributes on a tags.

        To make an attribute valid for all tags, use the pseudo tag :all, e.g. addAttributes(":all", "class").

        Parameters:
        tag - The tag the attributes are for. The tag will be added to the allowed tag list if necessary.
        attributes - List of valid attributes for the tag

      • removeAttributes

        public Safelist removeAttributes​(java.lang.String tag,
                                         java.lang.String... attributes)
        Remove a list of allowed attributes from a tag. (If an attribute is not allowed on an element, it will be removed.)

        E.g.: removeAttributes("a", "href", "class") disallows href and class attributes on a tags.

        To make an attribute invalid for all tags, use the pseudo tag :all, e.g. removeAttributes(":all", "class").

        Parameters:
        tag - The tag the attributes are for.
        attributes - List of invalid attributes for the tag
        Returns:

      • addEnforcedAttribute

        public Safelist addEnforcedAttribute​(java.lang.String tag,
                                             java.lang.String attribute,
                                             java.lang.String value)
        Add an enforced attribute to a tag. An enforced attribute will always be added to the element. If the element already has the attribute set, it will be overridden with this value.

        E.g.: addEnforcedAttribute("a", "rel", "nofollow") will make all a tags output as <a href="..." rel="nofollow">

        Parameters:
        tag - The tag the enforced attribute is for. The tag will be added to the allowed tag list if necessary.
        attribute - The attribute name
        value - The enforced attribute value
        Returns:
        this (for chaining)
      • removeEnforcedAttribute

        public Safelist removeEnforcedAttribute​(java.lang.String tag,

        Remove a previously configured enforced attribute from a tag.
        Parameters:
        tag - The tag the enforced attribute is for.
        attribute - The attribute name
        Returns:
        this (for chaining)
      • preserveRelativeLinks

        public Safelist preserveRelativeLinks​(boolean preserve)
        Configure this Safelist to preserve relative links in an element's URL attribute, or convert them to absolute links. By default, this is false: URLs will be made absolute (e.g. start with an allowed protocol, like e.g. http://.

        Note that when handling relative links, the input document must have an appropriate base URI set when parsing, so that the link's protocol can be confirmed. Regardless of the setting of the preserve relative links option, the link must be resolvable against the base URI to an allowed protocol; otherwise the attribute will be removed.

        Parameters:
        preserve - true to allow relative links, false (default) to deny
        Returns:
        this Safelist, for chaining.

        Add allowed URL protocols for an element's URL attribute. This restricts the possible values of the attribute to URLs with the defined protocol.

        E.g.: addProtocols("a", "href", "ftp", "http", "https")

        To allow a link to an in-page URL anchor (i.e. <a href="#anchor">, add a #:
        E.g.: addProtocols("a", "href", "#")

        tag - Tag the URL protocol is for
        attribute - Attribute name
        protocols - List of valid protocols

        tag - Tag the URL protocol is for
        attribute - Attribute name
