It has sensible defaults to provide a great developer experience while still being entirely configurable. Internally, the sanitizer has a deep understanding of HTML: it parses the input and create a tree of DOMNode objects, which it uses to keep only the safe elements from the content. By using this technique, it is safe (it works with a strict whitelist), fast and easily extensible. It also provides useful features such as the possibility to transform images or iframes URLs to HTTPS. Symfony integration ------------------- [](#symfony-integration) This library is also available as [a Symfony bundle](https://github.com/tgalopin/html-sanitizer-bundle). Documentation ------------- [](#documentation) 1. [Getting started](https://github.com/tgalopin/html-sanitizer/blob/master/docs/1-getting-started.md) 2. [Creating an extension to allow custom tags](https://github.com/tgalopin/html-sanitizer/blob/master/docs/2-creating-an-extension-to-allow-custom-tags.md) 3. [Configuration reference](https://github.com/tgalopin/html-sanitizer/blob/master/docs/3-configuration-reference.md) 4. [Comparison with HTMLPurifier](https://github.com/tgalopin/html-sanitizer/blob/master/docs/4-comparison-with-htmlpurifier.md) Security Issues --------------- [](#security-issues) If you discover a security vulnerability within the sanitizer, please follow [our disclosure procedure](https://github.com/tgalopin/html-sanitizer/blob/master/docs/A-security-disclosure-procedure.md). Backward Compatibility promise ------------------------------ [](#backward-compatibility-promise) This library follows the same Backward Compatibility promise as the Symfony framework: > *Note*: many classes in this library are either marked `@final` or `@internal`. `@internal` classes are excluded from any Backward Compatiblity promise (you should not use them in your code) whereas `@final` classes can be used but should not be extended (use composition instead). Thanks ------ [](#thanks) Many thanks to: - [The Open Web Application Security Project](https://www.owasp.org/index.php/OWASP_Java_HTML_Sanitizer_Project)from which many of the tests of this library are extracted (more specifically from [OWASP/java-html-sanitizer](https://github.com/OWASP/java-html-sanitizer)) ; - [Masterminds/html5-php](https://github.com/Masterminds/html5-php) which is a great HTML5 parser, used by default in this library ; - [The PHP League URI parser](http://uri.thephpleague.com/) which allows this library to filter hosts safely ; ### Health Score 47 — FairBetter than 93% of packages Maintenance19 Infrequent updates — may be unmaintained Popularity63 Solid adoption and visibility Community29 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity64 Established project with proven stability Bus Factor1 Top contributor holds 87.1% of commits — single point of failure How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
