HTML Purifier Extras The Method Behind The Madness! The extras/ folder in HTML Purifier contains--you guessed it--extra things for HTML Purifier. Specifically, these are two extra libraries called FSTools and ConfigSchema. They're extra for a reason: you don't need them if you're using HTML Purifier for normal usage: filtering HTML. However, if you're a developer, and would like to test HTML Purifier, or need to use one of HTML Purifier's maintenance scripts, chances are they'll need these libraries. Who knows: maybe you'll find them useful too! Here are the libraries: FSTools ------- Short for File System Tools, this is a poor-man's object-oriented wrapper for the filesystem. It currently consists of two classes: - FSTools: This is a singleton that contains a manner of useful functions such as recursive glob, directory removal, etc, as well as the ability to call arbitrary native PHP functions through it like $FS->fopen(...). This makes it a lot simpler to mock these filesystem calls for unit testing. - FSTools_File: This object represents a single file, and has almost any method imaginable one would need. Check the files themselves for more information. ConfigSchema ------------ ConfigSchema is the next-generation configuration validation system for HTML Purifier, built off of the original HTMLPurifier_ConfigSchema. When complete, it will be used to generate schema files which will then be used to enforce values set to HTMLPurifier_Config.
