escape(string) click to toggle source

URL-encode a string.

url_encoded_string = CGI.escape("'Stop!' said Fred")
   # => "%27Stop%21%27+said+Fred"
 
               # File ruby-3.1.2/lib/cgi/util.rb, line 12
def escape(string)
  encoding = string.encoding
  string.b.gsub(/([^ a-zA-Z0-9_.\-~]+)/) do |m|
    '%' + m.unpack('H2' * m.bytesize).join('%').upcase
  end.tr(' ', '+').force_encoding(encoding)
end
            
escapeElement(string, *elements) click to toggle source

Escape only the tags of certain HTML elements in string.

Takes an element or elements or array of elements. Each element is specified by the name of the element, without angle brackets. This matches both the start and the end tag of that element. The attribute list of the open tag will also be escaped (for instance, the double-quotes surrounding attribute values).

print CGI.escapeElement('<BR><A HREF="url"></A>', "A", "IMG")
  # "<BR>&lt;A HREF=&quot;url&quot;&gt;&lt;/A&gt"

print CGI.escapeElement('<BR><A HREF="url"></A>', ["A", "IMG"])
  # "<BR>&lt;A HREF=&quot;url&quot;&gt;&lt;/A&gt"
 
               # File ruby-3.1.2/lib/cgi/util.rb, line 145
def escapeElement(string, *elements)
  elements = elements[0] if elements[0].kind_of?(Array)
  unless elements.empty?
    string.gsub(/<\/?(?:#{elements.join("|")})(?!\w)(?:.|\n)*?>/i) do
      CGI.escapeHTML($&)
    end
  else
    string
  end
end
            
Also aliased as: escape_element
escapeHTML(string) click to toggle source

Escape special characters in HTML, namely '&"<>

CGI.escapeHTML('Usage: foo "bar" <baz>')
   # => "Usage: foo &quot;bar&quot; &lt;baz&gt;"
 
               # File ruby-3.1.2/lib/cgi/util.rb, line 41
def escapeHTML(string)
  enc = string.encoding
  unless enc.ascii_compatible?
    if enc.dummy?
      origenc = enc
      enc = Encoding::Converter.asciicompat_encoding(enc)
      string = enc ? string.encode(enc) : string.b
    end
    table = Hash[TABLE_FOR_ESCAPE_HTML__.map {|pair|pair.map {|s|s.encode(enc)}}]
    string = string.gsub(/#{"['&\"<>]".encode(enc)}/, table)
    string.encode!(origenc) if origenc
    string
  else
    string = string.b
    string.gsub!(/['&\"<>]/, TABLE_FOR_ESCAPE_HTML__)
    string.force_encoding(enc)
  end

pretty(string, shift = " ") click to toggle source

Prettify (indent) an HTML string.

string is the HTML string to indent. shift is the indentation unit to use; it defaults to two spaces.

print CGI.pretty("<HTML><BODY></BODY></HTML>")
  # <HTML>
  #   <BODY>
  #   </BODY>
  # </HTML>

print CGI.pretty("<HTML><BODY></BODY></HTML>", "\t")
  # <HTML>
  #         <BODY>

  # </HTML>
 
               # File ruby-3.1.2/lib/cgi/util.rb, line 207
def pretty(string, shift = "  ")
  lines = string.gsub(/(?!\A)<.*?>/m, "\n\\0").gsub(/<.*?>(?!\n)/m, "\\0\n")
  end_pos = 0
  while end_pos = lines.index(/^<\/(\w+)/, end_pos)
    element = $1.dup

    lines[start_pos ... end_pos] = "__" + lines[start_pos ... end_pos].gsub(/\n(?!\z)/, "\n" + shift) + "__"
  end
  lines.gsub(/^((?:#{Regexp::quote(shift)})*)__(?=<\/?\w)/, '\1')
end
            
rfc1123_date(time) click to toggle source

Format a Time object as a String using the format specified by RFC 1123.

CGI.rfc1123_date(Time.now)

  time.getgm.strftime("%a, %d %b %Y %T GMT")
end
            
unescape(string,encoding=@@accept_charset) click to toggle source

URL-decode a string with encoding(optional).

string = CGI.unescape("%27Stop%21%27+said+Fred")
   # => "'Stop!' said Fred"
 
               # File ruby-3.1.2/lib/cgi/util.rb, line 22
def unescape(string,encoding=@@accept_charset)
  str=string.tr('+', ' ').b.gsub(/((?:%[0-9a-fA-F]{2})+)/) do |m|
    [m.delete('%')].pack('H*')
  end.force_encoding(encoding)
  str.valid_encoding? ? str : str.force_encoding(string.encoding)
end
            
unescapeElement(string, *elements) click to toggle source

Undo escaping such as that done by CGI.escapeElement()

print CGI.unescapeElement(
        CGI.escapeHTML('<BR><A HREF="url"></A>'), "A", "IMG")
  # "&lt;BR&gt;<A HREF="url"></A>"

print CGI.unescapeElement(
