The Craft 3 version is here!

Ever have a client put 4 MB PNG files in their Redactor fields, failing to apply any of your meticulously crafted image transforms? Writers consistently using the <strong> tag for headers? Have you ever needed to implement lazy loading of images embedded in WYSIWYG content, responsive images or wanted to remove pesky inline styles without breaking a sweat? This is for you.

Retcon is a small Craft CMS plugin offering a series of easy-to-use Twig filters for manipulating HTML content.

• Download & unzip
• Move the /retconhtml folder to craft/plugins
• Install from Control Panel

Please see the Wiki page for documentation, featureset overview and code examples.

Retcon uses DOMDocument to rewrite HTML. It includes a series of different methods, exposed as Twig filters:

{{entry.body | retconTransform('someImageTransform')}}

All methods, however, can also be called as template methods:

{{craft.retconHtml.transform(entry.body, 'someImageTransform')}}

...or through the Retcon service, if you ever want to use it in your PHP:

<?php echo craft()->retconHtml->transform($entry->body, 'someImageTransform'); ?>

If you prefer, Retcon also includes a "catch-all" filter, taking the filter name as its first argument:

{{entry.body | retcon('transform', 'someImageTransform')}}

{{craft.retconHtml.retcon(entry.body, 'transform', 'someImageTransform')}}

<?php echo craft()->retconHtml->retcon($entry->body, 'transform', 'someImageTransform'); ?>

And finally, you'll also be able to apply several operations in one go (for a theoretical performance gain). Each index in the operation array will be either a String value (filter name) if there are no arguments, or an array of arguments (where the filter name should be the first index).

{{entry.body | retcon([
    ['transform', 'someImageTransform'],
    'lazy',
    ['attr', '.foo', {'class' : 'bar'}]
])}}

{{craft.retconHtml.retcon(entry.body, [
    ['transform', 'someImageTransform'],
    'lazy',
    ['attr', '.foo', {'class' : 'bar'}]
])}}

<?php
echo craft()->retconHtml->retcon($entry->body, array(
    array('transform', 'someImageTransform'),
    'lazy',
    array('attr', '.foo', array('class' => 'bar')),
));
?>

transform Apply a named or inline image transform to all images. If installed, Retcon uses Imager to apply the transform.

srcset Apply an array of named or inline image transform to all images, for simple srcset support. If installed, Retcon uses Imager to apply the transforms.

lazy Replaces the src attribute of image tags with a transparent, 1x1 px base64 encoded SVG, placing the original image's src in a data-attribute and retaining the original image's aspect ratio

autoAlt Adds filename as alternative text for images missing alt tags

attr Adds, replaces or removes a set of attributes and attribute values – e.g. class. Can be used to remove inline styles.

renameAttr Renames existing attributes for matching selectors, retaining the attribute values.

wrap Wraps stuff in other stuff

unwrap Removes parent node for matching elements

remove Removes all elements matching the given selector(s)

only Removes everything but the elements matching the given selector(s)

change Changes tag type for all elements matching the given selector(s). Can also remove the tag(s) completely, retaining inner content

inject Inject strings or HTML

replace Replace stuff with ```preg_replace``

By default, Retcon will store any transformed images to a subfolder below the original image (identical to Craft's behaviour when applying transforms to an AssetFileModel). If you want to store transforms somewhere else, you can set a different base path here. Make sure that the folder is writable!

Self explanatory.

HTML output will be encoded to UTF-8 by default, but you can set the encoding to be anything you want.

If installed, Retcon will use the Imager plugin by André Elvan for all image transforms. You can turn it off, though.
