inline-source
Advanced tools
Inline and compress tags that contain the inline attribute. Supports <script>, <link>, and <img> (including *.svg sources) tags by default, and is easily extensible to handle others.
You can use inline-source-cli to run
inline-sourcefrom the command line or NPM Scripts.
inlineSource(htmlpath: string, [options: Options]): Promise<string>: parse htmlpath content for tags containing an inline attribute, and replace with (optionally compressed) file contents.
htmlpath can be either a filepath or a string of html content.
Available options include:
attribute: attribute used to parse sources (all tags will be parsed if set to false. Default 'inline')compress: enable/disable compression of inlined content (default true)fs: specify fs implementation (default is Node core 'fs')handlers: specify custom handlers (default []) [see custom handlers]preHandlers: specify custom pre handlers (default []) [see custom pre handlers]ignore: disable inlining based on tag, type, and/or format (default [])pretty: maintain leading whitespace when options.compress is false (default false)rootpath: directory path used for resolving inlineable paths (default process.cwd())saveRemote: enable/disable saving a local copy of remote sources (default true)svgAsImage: convert <img inline src="*.svg" /> to <img> and not <svg> (default false)swallowErrors: enable/disable suppression of errors (default false)$ npm install inline-source

import { inlineSource } from 'inline-source';
import fs from 'node:fs';
import path from 'node:path';
const htmlpath = path.resolve('project/src/html/index.html');
inlineSource(htmlpath, {
compress: true,

...or preferably using async/await:
import { inlineSource } from 'inline-source';
import fs from 'node:fs';
import path from 'node:path';
const htmlpath = path.resolve('project/src/html/index.html');
try {
const html = await inlineSource(htmlpath, {
compress: true,
rootpath: path.resolve('www'),
// Skip all css types and png formats
ignore: ['css', 'png'],
});
// Do something with html
} catch (err) {
// Handle error
}
Custom handlers are simple middleware-type functions that enable you to provide new, or override existing, inlining behaviour. All handlers have the following signature: (source: Source, context: Context) => Promise<void> | void
source: the current source object to act upon
attributes: the parsed tag attributes objectcompress: the compress flag (may be overriden at the tag level via props)content: the processed fileContent stringextension: the file extensionfileContent: the loaded file content stringfilepath: the fully qualified path stringformat: the format string (jpg, gif, svg+xml, etc)match: the matched html tag string, including closing tag if appropriateprops: the parsed namespaced attributes object (see props)replace: the tag wrapped content string to replace matchtag: the tag string (script, link, etc)type: the content type based on type mime-type attribute, or tag (js for application/javascript, css for text/css, etc)context: the global context object storing all configuration options (attribute, compress, ignore, pretty, rootpath, swallowErrors, svgAsImage), in addtion to:
html: the html file's content stringhtmlpath: the html file's path stringsources: the array of source objectsCustom handlers are inserted before the defaults, enabling overriding of default behaviour:
export function handler(source, context) {
if (source.fileContent && !source.content && source.type == 'js') {
source.content = "Hey! I'm overriding the file's content!";
}
}
In general, default file content processing will be skipped if source.content is already set, and default wrapping of processed content will be skipped if source.replace is already set.
Custom pre handlers are the same as custom handlers only they run before loading the file. All handlers have the following signature: (source: Source, context: Context) => Promise<void> | void
With custom Pre handlers you can make changes to the file name
export function prehandler(source, context) {
const { version } = getVersionFromSomewhere();
source.filepath = source.filepath.replace('.js', `_${version}.js`);
}
Source props are a subset of attributes that are namespaced with the current global attribute ('inline' by default), and allow declaratively passing data or settings to handlers:
<script
inline
inline-foo="foo"
inline-compress="false"
src="../src/js/inlineScript.js"
></script>
export function handler(source, context) {
if (source.fileContent && !source.content && source.type == 'js') {
// The `inline-compress` attribute automatically overrides the global flag
if (!source.compress) {
// do something
}
if (source.props.foo == 'foo') {
// foo content
}
}
}
