HTML Escape

====================

[![CI](https://github.com/magiclen/html-escape/actions/workflows/ci.yml/badge.svg)](https://github.com/magiclen/html-escape/actions/workflows/ci.yml)

This library is for encoding/escaping special characters in HTML and decoding/unescaping HTML entities as well.

## Usage

### Encoding

This crate provides some `encode_*` functions to encode HTML text in different situations.

For example, to put a text between a start tag `` and an end tag ``, use the `encode_text` function to escape every `&`, `<`, and `>` in the text.

```rust

assert_eq!("a > b && a < c", html_escape::encode_text("a > b && a < c"));

```

The functions suffixed with `_to_writer`, `_to_vec` or `_to_string` are useful to generate HTML.

```rust

let mut html = String::from("alert('");

assert_eq!(r"<script>\'s end tag is <\/script>", html_escape::encode_script_single_quoted_text_to_string("<script>'s end tag is ", &mut html));

html.push_str("');");

assert_eq!("alert(\'<script>\\\'s end tag is <\\/script>\');", html);

```

### Decoding

```rust

assert_eq!("Hello world!", html_escape::decode_html_entities("Hello world!"));

```

```rust

assert_eq!("alert(');'", html_escape::decode_script(r"alert('<\/script>);'"));

```
