- Use ElementDef->child to define a literal ChildDef object, rather than ElementDef->content_model. - Add notes on transforms, HTMLModule will be able to write those too - Fix some misc typos. git-svn-id: http://htmlpurifier.org/svnroot/htmlpurifier/trunk@729 48356398-32a2-884e-a903-53898d9a118a

Configuration
|
|
|
|
Configuration is documented on a per-use case: if a class uses a certain
|
|
value from the configuration object, it has to define its name and what the
|
|
value is used for. This means decentralized configuration declarations that
|
|
are nevertheless error checking and a centralized configuration object.
|
|
|
|
Directives are divided into namespaces, indicating the major portion of
|
|
functionality they cover (although there may be overlaps). Please consult
|
|
the documentation in ConfigDef for more information on these namespaces.
|
|
|
|
Since configuration is dependant on context, internal classes require a
|
|
configuration object to be passed as a parameter. (They also require a
|
|
Context object).
|
|
|
|
In relation to HTMLDefinition and CSSDefinition, there could be a special class
|
|
of directives that influence the *construction* of the Definition object.
|
|
A theoretical call pattern would look like:
|
|
|
|
1. Client calls Config->getHTMLDefinition()
|
|
2. Config calls HTMLDefinition->createNew(this)
|
|
3. HTMLDefinition constructs itself with base configuration
|
|
4. HTMLDefinition calls Config->get('HTML')
|
|
5. Config returns array of directives
|
|
6. HTMLDefinition performs operations and changes specified by directives
|
|
7. HTMLPurifier returns constructed definition
|
|
8. Config caches definition so it doesn't have to be generated again
|
|
9. Config returns definition
|
|
|
|
You could also override Config's copy of the definition with your own
|
|
custom copy, which OVERRIDES all directives. Only the base, vanilla copy
|
|
is the Singleton, the object actually interfaced with is a operated-upon
|
|
clone of that object. Also, if an update to the directives would update
|
|
the definition, you'd have to force reconstruction.
|
|
|
|
In practice, the pulling directives from the config object are
|
|
solely need-based, and the flex points are littered throughout the
|
|
setup() function. Some sort of refactoring is likely in order. See
|
|
ref-xhtml-1.1.txt for more info.
