TrustedTypePolicyFactory.getAttributeType()

Examples

The below code creates a policy with the name "myEscapePolicy" with a function defined for createHTML() which sanitizes HTML.

We then use the policy to sanitize a string, creating a TrustedHTML object, escaped. This object can be tested with isHTML() to ensure that it was created by one of our policies.

js

const escapeHTMLPolicy = trustedTypes.createPolicy("myEscapePolicy", {
  createHTML: (string) => string.replace(/>/g, "<"),
});

const escaped = escapeHTMLPolicy.createHTML("<img src=x onerror=alert(1)>");

console.log(trustedTypes.isHTML(escaped)); // true;
