I want to make custom grammar like Wiki and how can I do it in React and without dangerouslySetInnerHTML?
For example:
"hello this is simple string [linkToSomewhere] {this is where bold goes}"
becomes
<div>
hello this is simple string <Link where="linktoSomewhere"/> <Bold string="this is where bold goes"/>
</div>
like this
I found way to parse custom markdown to array but found no way to insert it as react component array is like
link[0] = "linkToSomewhere"
bold[0] = "this is where Bold goes"
Thank you in advance!
There are a few Markdown libraries available for React. Check out:
react-markdown: https://rexxars.github.io/react-markdown/
react-remarkable: https://github.com/acdlite/react-remarkable
And here's a whole host of other libraries that can translate your Markdown document into a nicely rendered HTML: https://react.rocks/tag/Markdown
And in order to learn the Markdown syntax, there are a few cheat sheets available, such as:

I am using a third party indexing service (Swiftype) to search through my database. The returned records contains a property called highlight. This simply adds <em> tags around matching strings.
I then bind this highlight property in Ember.JS Handlebars as such:
<p> Title: {{highlight.title}} </p>
Which results in the following output:
Title: Example <em>matching</em> text
The browse actually displays the <em> tags, instead of formatting them. I.e. Handlebars is not identifying the HTML tags, and simply printing them as a string.
Is there a way around this?
Thanks!
Handlebars by default escapes html, to prevent escaping, use triple brackets:
<p> Title: {{{highlight.title}}} </p>
See http://handlebarsjs.com/#html-escaping
Ember escapes html because it could be potentional bad code which can be executed. To avoid that use
Ember.Handlebars.SafeString("<em>MyString</em>");
Here are the docs
http://emberjs.com/guides/templates/writing-helpers/
if you've done that you could use {{hightlight.title}} like wished,...

I am consuming XML which I have no control over.
the XML has HTML in it which i am styling and displaying in a HTML text field.
I want to remove all the html except the links.
Strip all HTML tags except links
is not working for me.
does any one have any tips? regEx?
the following removes tables.
var reTable:RegExp = /<table\s+[^>]*>.*?<\/table>/s;
but now i realize i need to keep content that is the tables and I also need the links.
thanks!!!

Probably shouldn't use regex to parse html, but if you don't care, something simple like this:
find /<table\s+[^>]*>.*?<\/table\s+>/
replace ""
ActionScript has a pretty neat tool for handling XML: E4X. Rather than relying on RegEx, which I find often messes things up with XML, just modify the actual XML tree, and from within AS:
var xml : XML = <page>
<p>Other elements</p>
<table><tr><td>1</td></tr></table>
<p>won't</p>
<div>
<table><tr><td>2</td></tr></table>
</div>
<p>be</p>
<table><tr><td>3</td></tr></table>
<p>removed</p>
<table><tr><td>4</td></tr></table>
</page>;
clearTables (xml);
trace (xml.toXMLString()); // will output everything but the tables
function removeTables (xml : XML ) : void {
xml.replace( "table", "");
for each (var child:XML in xml.elements("*")) clearTables(child);
}
Lets say i have
input string as
<div id="infoLangIcon"></div>ARA, DAN, ENGLISHinGERMAN, FRA<div id="infoPipe"></div><div id="infoRating0"></div><div id="infoPipe"></div><div id="infoMonoIcon"></div>
so i want to check if inforating is 0 and then remove the div and previous div also. The output is
<div id="infoLangIcon"></div>ARA, DAN, ENGLISHinGERMAN, FRA</div><div id="infoPipe"></div><div id="infoMonoIcon"></div
Regex is not your best option here. It is not reliable when it comes to HTML.
I suggest you use DOM functions to do this (I gave you a Javascript example, you have not provided a language to be used). If I understood correctly, if there is an element with the ID of infoRating0, you want to remove it and its previous sibling. This little snippet should do that:
if (document.getElementById('infoRating0')) {
var rating0=document.getElementById('infoRating0'),
rParent=rating0.parentNode;
rParent.removeChild(rating0.previousSibling);
rParent.removeChild(rating0);
}
Also, your HTML is invalid. You can only use an ID once in your HTML. You have two divs with the same ID (infoPipe) which you should REALLY fix. Use classes instead.

I'm exploring Django and got this particular problem.
How do I prepend <span class="label">Note:</span> inside {{article.content_html|safe}}?
The content of {{article.content_html|safe}} are paragraph blocks, and I just wanna add <span class="label">Note:</span> in the very first paragraph.
Thanks!
Sounds like you want to write a custom tag that uses BeautifulSoup to parse the HTML and inject the fragment.
There's no easy way. You can easily prepend to all articles.
<span class="label">Note:</span>
{{article.content_html|safe}}
If that doesn't help you consider changing the structure of article.content_html so you can manipulate with blocks from django templates, so it should look something like this
{{article.content_header}}
<span class="label">Note:</span>
{{article.content_html}}
If that solution is not feasible to you and you absolutely need to parse and modify the content of article.content_html, write your own custom filter that does that. You can find documentation about writing custom filters here http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/howto/custom-template-tags/#writing-custom-template-filters.
An alternate approach could be to do this with javascript. In jQuery, it would look something like:
var first_p_text = $("p:first").text()
$("p:first").html("<span class="label">Note:</span>" + first_p_text)
Note though that if there are other elements inside your first p, $("p:first").text() will grab the text from those as well - see http://api.jquery.com/text/
Of course, this relies on decent javascript support in the client.
jQuery is the simplest and easiest to implement. You only need one line with the prepend call (documentation):
$('p:first').prepend('<span class="label">Note:</span>');
Explanation: 'p:first' is a jQuery selector similar to the ':first-child' CSS selector. It will select the first paragraph and the prepend call will then insert the span into that selected paragraph.
Note: If there is a paragraph on the page before your content, you may have to surround it with a div:
<div id='ilovesmybbq'>{{article.content_html|safe}}</div>
Then the jQuery call would be:
$('#ilovesmybbq p:first').prepend('<span class="label">Note:</span>');
I want to extract the image url from any website. I am reading the source info through webRequest. I want a regular expression which will fetch the Image url from this content i.e the Src value in the <img> tag.
I'd recommend using an HTML parser to read the html and pull the image tags out of it, as regexes don't mesh well with data structures like xml and html.
In C#: (from this SO question)
var web = new HtmlWeb();
var doc = web.Load("http://www.stackoverflow.com");
var nodes = doc.DocumentNode.SelectNodes("//img[#src]");
foreach (var node in nodes)
{
Console.WriteLine(node.src);
}
/(?:\"|')[^\\x22*<>|\\\\]+?\.(?:jpg|bmp|gif|png)(?:\"|')/i
is a decent one I have used before. This gets any reference to an image file within an html document. I didn't strip " or ' around the match, so you will need to do that.
Try this*:
<img .*?src=["']?([^'">]+)["']?.*?>
Tested here with:
<img class="test" src="/content/img/so/logo.png" alt="logo homepage">
Gives
$1 = /content/img/so/logo.png
The $1 (you have to mouseover the match to see it) corresponds to the part of the regex between (). How you access that value will depend on what implementation of regex you are using.
*If you want to know how this works, leave a comment
EDIT
As nearly always with regexp, there are edge cases:
<img title="src=hack" src="/content/img/so/logo.png" alt="logo homepage">
This would be matched as 'hack'.
