Datasette SQL functions for very simple HTML operations

## Installation

Install this plugin in the same environment as Datasette.

datasette install datasette-simple-html

## Usage

This plugin provides the following SQL functions:

### html_strip_tags(text)

Returns the text with any `<...>` tags removed.

### html_escape(text)

Escapes any HTML special characters in the text, e.g. `>` becomes `>`. Uses [html.escape(text, quote=True)](https://docs.python.org/3/library/html.html#html.escape) from the Python standard library.

### html_unescape(text)

Unescapes any HTML special characters, so `>` becomes `>`. Also handles numeric entities, so `'` becomes `'`. Uses [html.unescape(text)](https://docs.python.org/3/library/html.html#html.unescape) from the Python standard library.

## Development

To set up this plugin locally, first checkout the code. Then create a new virtual environment:

cd datasette-simple-html
python3 -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate
