# AdaptiveHtml
HTML to Adaptive Card JSON converter library ([Demo editor](https://rcasto.github.io/adaptive-editor/))

The goal of this project is to allow integration with existing WYSIWYG editors such as [CKEditor](https://ckeditor.com/) and convert their HTML output to an [Adaptive Card](https://adaptivecards.io/).

Under the hood, this project has taken the [Turndown](https://github.com/domchristie/turndown/) code and repurposed it.

- [Building it yourself](#building-it-yourself)

## Getting started
You can either install the npm package or use a CDN.

### Via npm
`npm install adaptive-html`

### Via CDN
```html

```

## API
toJSON(string | [HTMLElement](https://devdocs.io/dom/htmlelement)) => Adaptive Card JSON
```javascript
var adaptiveCardJson = AdaptiveHtml.toJSON(`

Turn me into an Adaptive Card


`);
console.log(JSON.stringify(adaptiveCardJson, null, '\t'));
/*
JSON returned

{
"type": "AdaptiveCard",
"body": [
{
"type": "TextBlock",
"text": "Turn me into an Adaptive Card",
"wrap": true
}
],
"actions": [],
"version": "1.0"
}
*/
```
### Override version of Adaptive Card schema used
The `toJSON` method has an optional options object that can be passed in as the second parameter. The only accepted property within this object at the moment is `version`, which should be the [version of the Adaptive Card schema](https://github.com/microsoft/AdaptiveCards/tree/main/schemas#referenceable-versions) that you would like associated with the generated Adaptive Card JSON output. By default, the version will be "1.0".

```javascript
var adaptiveCardJson = AdaptiveHtml.toJSON(`

Turn me into an Adaptive Card


`, {
version: '1.5',
});
console.log(JSON.stringify(adaptiveCardJson, null, '\t'));
/*
JSON returned

{
"type": "AdaptiveCard",
"body": [
{
"type": "TextBlock",
"text": "Turn me into an Adaptive Card",
"wrap": true
}
],
"actions": [],
"version": "1.5"
}
*/
```

## Currently supported HTML tags
- p
- br
- h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6
- ul, ol
- li
- a
- em, i
- strong, b
- img

The default replacement for tags not listed above depends on whether the tag refers to a [block](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Block-level_elements#Elements) or [inline](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Inline_elements#Elements) level HTML element.

For block level elements, its contents are processed, and wrapped in a [Container](https://adaptivecards.io/explorer/Container.html).
For inline level elements, its contents are processed and simply returned.

## Known caveats
- Images in list steps and nested steps are pushed to the bottom of the corresponding list step
- Lists cannot contain headings

## Building it yourself
If you wish to build the library yourself then you can follow these steps:
1. Clone or download the [repository](https://github.com/rcasto/adaptive-html)
2. `cd` to the repository directory via the command line/terminal
3. Run `npm install` to install the necessary dependencies
- Note: Make sure you have [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/en/) installed
4. Hack away
5. Execute the command `npm run build`
6. You should now be able to view the built libraries under the `dist/` folder within your copy of the repository

### Test Client
To demonstrate the transformation there is a test client within the repository. To launch it follow these steps:
1. Execute the command `npm run client` from project root
2. Navigate to http://localhost:8080

### Running tests
You can run tests by executing the command `npm test`.

If you want to generate a code coverage report execute the command `npm run test:report`. Launch `coverage/index.html` in the browser to view the report.
