# CSP HTML Webpack Plugin

## About

`@mrtc0/csp-html-webpack-plugin` is a webpack plugin that helps to automatically add CSP(Level 3) to `meta` tags in projects like Single Page Application.
This project is inspired by [strict-csp-html-webpack-plugin](https://github.com/google/strict-csp/tree/main/strict-csp-html-webpack-plugin) and allows for more flexible CSP directives.

## Installation

with npm:

```shell
npm i --save-dev @mrtc0/csp-html-webpack-plugin
```

## Basic Usage

In your webpack config file:

```js
const HtmlWebpackPlugin = require("html-webpack-plugin");
const { CspHtmlWebpackPlugin } = require("@mrtc0/csp-html-webpack-plugin");

module.exports = {
// ...
plugins: [
new HtmlWebpackPlugin(),
new CspHtmlWebpackPlugin(HtmlWebpackPlugin),
],
};
```

Will generate the following HTML:

```html






var scripts = ["/static/js/index.js"];
scripts.forEach(function (scriptUrl) {
var s = document.createElement("script");
s.src = scriptUrl;
s.async = false;
document.body.appendChild(s);
});

```

### How does this plugin work?

This plugin is referencing the [strict-csp](https://github.com/google/strict-csp/tree/main/strict-csp) library as a source of inspiration.

> 1. It replaces sourced scripts with an inline script that dynamically loads all sourced scripts. It calculates the hash of this script.
> 2. It calculates the hash of other inline scripts.
> 3. It creates a strict hash-based CSP, that includes the hashes calculated in (1) and (2).

## Configuration

By default, `@mrtc0/csp-html-webpack-plugin` applies Strict-CSP as follows:

```
base-uri 'self'; object-src 'none'; script-src 'strict-dynamic' 'sha256-...';
```

By specifying directives, you can modify the default directives. The `script-src` directive is automatically generated.

```js
module.exports = {
// ...
plugins: [
new HtmlWebpackPlugin(),
new CspHtmlWebpackPlugin(HtmlWebpackPlugin, {
"base-uri": [`'self'`],
"object-src": [`'none'`],
// Add img-src directive
"img-src": [`'self'`, `https://example.com`],
// script-src will auto generate
}),
],
};
```

If you need to provide fallbacks for older browsers that do not support CSP Level 3, you can specify the `script-src` directive.

```js
module.exports = {
// ...
plugins: [
new HtmlWebpackPlugin(),
new CspHtmlWebpackPlugin(HtmlWebpackPlugin, {
"base-uri": [`'self'`],
"object-src": [`'none'`],
// If CSP Level 3 is not supported, then fallback.
// Will be generated: "script-src 'strict-dynamic' sha256-... 'unsafe-inline' 'unsafe-eval' http: https:;"
script-src": [`'unsafe-inline'`, `'unsafe-eval'`, 'http:', 'https:']
}),
],
};
```
