Class Method Details

+ (Object) tag_list

Returns the list of tags processed by BBRuby in a Hash object

# File 'lib/bb-ruby.rb', line 278

def tag_list
  @@tags
end

+ (Object) to_html(text, tags_alternative_definition = {}, escape_html = true, method = :disable, *tags)

Convert a string with BBCode markup into its corresponding HTML markup

Basic Usage

The first parameter is the string off BBCode markup to be processed

text = "[b]some bold text to markup[/b]"
output = BBRuby.to_html(text)
# output => "<strong>some bold text to markup</strong>"

Custom BBCode translations

You can supply your own BBCode markup translations to create your own custom markup or override the default BBRuby translations (parameter is a hash of custom translations).

The hash takes the following format: “name” => [regexp, replacement, description, example, enable_symbol]

custom_blockquote = {
  'Quote' => [
    /\[quote(:.*)?=(.*?)\](.*?)\[\/quote\1?\]/mi,
    '<div class="quote"><p><cite>\2</cite></p><blockquote>\3</blockquote></div>',
    'Quote with citation',
    '[quote=mike]please quote me[/quote]',
    :quote
  ]
}

Enable and Disable specific tags

BBRuby will allow you to only enable certain BBCode tags, or to explicitly disable certain tags. Pass in either :disable or :enable to set your method, followed by the comma-separated list of tags you wish to disable or enable

BBRuby.to_html(text, {}, true, :enable, :image, :bold, :quote)
BBRuby.to_html(text, {}, true, :disable, :image, :video, :color)

def to_html(text, tags_alternative_definition={}, escape_html=true, method=:disable, *tags)
  text = process_tags(text, tags_alternative_definition, escape_html, method, *tags)

  # parse spacing
  text.gsub!( /\r\n?/, "\n" )

  text.gsub!(/\[quote\]/, '<fieldset><legend>Quote:</legend><blockquote>')
  text.gsub!(/\[quote(:.*)?="?(.*?)"?\]/, '<fieldset><legend>Quote: \2</legend><blockquote>')
  text.gsub!(/\[\/quote\]/, '</blockquote></fieldset>')

  # return markup
  text
end

+ (Object) to_html_with_formatting(text, tags_alternative_definition = {}, escape_html = true, method = :disable, *tags)

The same as BBRuby.to_html except the output is passed through simple_format first

Returns text transformed into HTML using simple formatting rules. Two or more consecutive newlines(nn) are considered as a paragraph and wrapped in <p> tags. One newline (n) is considered as a linebreak and a <br /> tag is appended. This method does not remove the newlines from the text.
