Emogrifier

This is a fork of MyIntervals/emogrifier adjusted purley to allow install on PHP7.4

n. e•mog•ri•fi•er [\ē-'mä-grƏ-,fī-Ər] - a utility for changing completely the nature or appearance of HTML email, esp. in a particularly fantastic or bizarre manner

Emogrifier converts CSS styles into inline style attributes in your HTML code. This ensures proper display on email and mobile device readers that lack stylesheet support.

This utility was developed as part of Intervals to deal with the problems posed by certain email clients (namely Outlook 2007 and GoogleMail) when it comes to the way they handle styling contained in HTML emails. As many web developers and designers already know, certain email clients are notorious for their lack of CSS support. While attempts are being made to develop common email standards, implementation is still a ways off.

The primary problem with uncooperative email clients is that most tend to only regard inline CSS, discarding all <style> elements and links to stylesheets in <link> elements. Emogrifier solves this problem by converting CSS styles into inline style attributes in your HTML code.

How it Works

Emogrifier automagically transmogrifies your HTML by parsing your CSS and inserting your CSS definitions into tags within your HTML based on your CSS selectors.

Installation

For installing emogrifier, either add pelago/emogrifier to the require section in your project's composer.json, or you can use composer as below:

composer require pelago/emogrifier

See https://getcomposer.org/ for more information and documentation.

Usage

Inlining Css

The most basic way to use the CssInliner class is to create an instance with the original HTML, inline the external CSS, and then get back the resulting HTML:

use Pelago\Emogrifier\CssInliner;

…

$visualHtml = CssInliner::fromHtml($html)->inlineCss($css)->render();

If there is no external CSS file and all CSS is located within <style> elements in the HTML, you can omit the $css parameter:

$visualHtml = CssInliner::fromHtml($html)->inlineCss()->render();

If you would like to get back only the content of the <body> element instead of the complete HTML document, you can use the renderBodyContent method instead:

$bodyContent = $visualHtml = CssInliner::fromHtml($html)->inlineCss()
  ->renderBodyContent();

If you would like to modify the inlining process with any of the available options, you will need to call the corresponding methods before inlining the CSS. The code then would look like this:

$visualHtml = CssInliner::fromHtml($html)->disableStyleBlocksParsing()
  ->inlineCss($css)->render();

There are also some other HTML-processing classes available (all of which are subclasses of AbstractHtmlProcessor) which you can use to further change the HTML after inlining the CSS. (For more details on the classes, please have a look at the sections below.) CssInliner and all HTML-processing classes can share the same DOMDocument instance to work on:

use Pelago\Emogrifier\CssInliner;
use Pelago\Emogrifier\HtmlProcessor\CssToAttributeConverter;
use Pelago\Emogrifier\HtmlProcessor\HtmlPruner;

…

$cssInliner = CssInliner::fromHtml($html)->inlineCss($css);
$domDocument = $cssInliner->getDomDocument();
HtmlPruner::fromDomDocument($domDocument)->removeElementsWithDisplayNone()
  ->removeRedundantClassesAfterCssInlined($cssInliner);
$finalHtml = CssToAttributeConverter::fromDomDocument($domDocument)
  ->convertCssToVisualAttributes()->render();

Normalizing and cleaning up HTML

The HtmlNormalizer class normalizes the given HTML in the following ways:

add a document type (HTML5) if missing
disentangle incorrectly nested tags
add HEAD and BODY elements (if they are missing)
reformat the HTML

The class can be used like this:

use Pelago\Emogrifier\HtmlProcessor\HtmlNormalizer;

…

$cleanHtml = HtmlNormalizer::fromHtml($rawHtml)->render();

Converting CSS styles to visual HTML attributes

The CssToAttributeConverter converts a few style attributes values to visual HTML attributes. This allows to get at least a bit of visual styling for email clients that do not support CSS well. For example, style="width: 100px" will be converted to width="100".

The class can be used like this:

use Pelago\Emogrifier\HtmlProcessor\CssToAttributeConverter;

…

$visualHtml = CssToAttributeConverter::fromHtml($rawHtml)
  ->convertCssToVisualAttributes()->render();

You can also have the CssToAttributeConverter work on a DOMDocument:

$visualHtml = CssToAttributeConverter::fromDomDocument($domDocument)
  ->convertCssToVisualAttributes()->render();

Removing redundant content and attributes from the HTML

The HtmlPruner class can reduce the size of the HTML by removing elements with a display: none style declaration, and/or removing classes from class attributes that are not required.

It can be used like this:

use Pelago\Emogrifier\HtmlProcessor\HtmlPruner;

…

$prunedHtml = HtmlPruner::fromHtml($html)->removeElementsWithDisplayNone()
  ->removeRedundantClasses($classesToKeep)->render();

The removeRedundantClasses method accepts a whitelist of names of classes that should be retained. If this is a post-processing step after inlining CSS, you can alternatively use removeRedundantClassesAfterCssInlined, passing it the CssInliner instance that has inlined the CSS (and having the HtmlPruner work on the DOMDocument). This will use information from the CssInliner to determine which classes are still required (namely, those used in uninlinable rules that have been copied to a <style> element):

$prunedHtml = HtmlPruner::fromDomDocument($cssInliner->getDomDocument())
  ->removeElementsWithDisplayNone()
  ->removeRedundantClassesAfterCssInlined($cssInliner)->render();

The removeElementsWithDisplayNone method will not remove any elements which have the class -emogrifier-keep. So if, for example, there are elements which by default have display: none but are revealed by an @media rule, or which are intended as a preheader, you can add that class to those elements. The paragraph in this HTML snippet will not be removed even though it has display: none (which has presumably been applied by CssInliner::inlineCss() from a CSS rule .preheader { display: none; }):

<p class="preheader -emogrifier-keep" style="display: none;">
  Hello World!
</p>

The removeRedundantClassesAfterCssInlined (or removeRedundantClasses) method, if invoked after removeElementsWithDisplayNone, will remove the -emogrifier-keep class.

Options

There are several options that you can set on the CssInliner instance before calling the inlineCss method:

->disableStyleBlocksParsing() - By default, CssInliner will grab all <style> blocks in the HTML and will apply the CSS styles as inline "style" attributes to the HTML. The <style> blocks will then be removed from the HTML. If you want to disable this functionality so that CssInliner leaves these <style> blocks in the HTML and does not parse them, you should use this option. If you use this option, the contents of the <style> blocks will not be applied as inline styles and any CSS you want CssInliner to use must be passed in as described in the Usage section above.
->disableInlineStyleAttributesParsing() - By default, CssInliner preserves all of the "style" attributes on tags in the HTML you pass to it. However if you want to discard all existing inline styles in the HTML before the CSS is applied, you should use this option.
->addAllowedMediaType(string $mediaName) - By default, CssInliner will keep only media types all, screen and print. If you want to keep some others, you can use this method to define them.
->removeAllowedMediaType(string $mediaName) - You can use this method to remove media types that Emogrifier keeps.
->addExcludedSelector(string $selector) - Keeps elements from being affected by CSS inlining. Note that only elements matching the supplied selector(s) will be excluded from CSS inlining, not necessarily their descendants. If you wish to exclude an entire subtree, you should provide selector(s) which will match all elements in the subtree, for example by using the universal selector:
```
$cssInliner->addExcludedSelector('.message-preview');
$cssInliner->addExcludedSelector('.message-preview *');
```

Migrating from the dropped `Emogrifier` class to the `CssInliner` class

Minimal example

Old code using Emogrifier:

$emogrifier = new Emogrifier($html);
$html = $emogrifier->emogrify();

New code using CssInliner:

$html = CssInliner::fromHtml($html)->inlineCss()->render();

NB: In this example, the old code removes elements with display: none; while the new code does not, as the default behaviors of the old and the new class differ in this regard.

More complex example

Old code using Emogrifier:

$emogrifier = new Emogrifier($html, $css);
$emogrifier->enableCssToHtmlMapping();

$html = $emogrifier->emogrify();

New code using CssInliner and family:

$domDocument = CssInliner::fromHtml($html)->inlineCss($css)->getDomDocument();

HtmlPruner::fromDomDocument($domDocument)->removeElementsWithDisplayNone(),
$html = CssToAttributeConverter::fromDomDocument($domDocument)
  ->convertCssToVisualAttributes()->render();

Supported CSS selectors

Emogrifier currently supports the following CSS selectors:

type
class
ID
universal
attribute:
- presence
- exact value match
- value with ~ (one word within a whitespace-separated list of words)
- value with | (either exact value match or prefix followed by a hyphen)
- value with ^ (prefix match)
- value with $ (suffix match)
- value with * (substring match)
adjacent
general sibling
child
descendant
pseudo-classes:
- empty
- first-child
- first-of-type (with a type, e.g. p:first-of-type but not *:first-of-type which will behave as *:first-child)
- last-child
- last-of-type (with a type)
- not()
- nth-child()
- nth-last-child()
- nth-last-of-type() (with a type)
- nth-of-type() (with a type)
- only-child

The following selectors are not implemented yet:

case-insensitive attribute value
static pseudo-classes:
- first-of-type without a type (will behave as :first-child)
- last-of-type without a type (will behave as :last-child)
- nth-last-of-type() without a type (will behave as :nth-last-child())
- nth-of-type() without a type (will behave as :nth-child())
- any pseudo-classes not listed above as supported – rules involving them will nonetheless be preserved and copied to a <style> element in the HTML – including (but not necessarily limited to) the following:

Rules involving the following selectors cannot be applied as inline styles. They will, however, be preserved and copied to a <style> element in the HTML:

dynamic pseudo-classes (such as :hover)
pseudo-elements (such as ::after)

Caveats

Emogrifier requires the HTML and the CSS to be UTF-8. Encodings like ISO8859-1 or ISO8859-15 are not supported.
Emogrifier preserves all valuable @media rules. Media queries can be very useful in responsive email design. See media query support. However, in order for them to be effective, you may need to add !important to some of the declarations within them so that they will override CSS styles that have been inlined. For example, with the following CSS, the font-size declaration in the @media rule would not override the font size for p elements from the preceding rule after that has been inlined as <p style="font-size: 16px;"> in the HTML, without the !important directive (even though !important would not be necessary if the CSS were not inlined):
```
p {
  font-size: 16px;
}
@media (max-width: 640px) {
  p {
    font-size: 14px !important;
  }
} 
```
Emogrifier cannot inline CSS rules involving selectors with pseudo-elements (such as ::after) or dynamic pseudo-classes (such as :hover) – it is impossible. However, such rules will be preserved and copied to a <style> element, as for @media rules. The same caveat about the possible need for the !important directive also applies with pseudo-classes.
Emogrifier will grab existing inline style attributes and will grab <style> blocks from your HTML, but it will not grab CSS files referenced in <link> elements or @import rules (though it will leave them intact for email clients that support them).
Even with styles inline, certain CSS properties are ignored by certain email clients. For more information, refer to these resources:
All CSS attributes that apply to an element will be applied, even if they are redundant. For example, if you define a font attribute and a font-size attribute, both attributes will be applied to that element (in other words, the more specific attribute will not be combined into the more general attribute).
There's a good chance you might encounter problems if your HTML is not well-formed and valid (DOMDocument might complain). If you get problems like this, consider running your HTML through Tidy before you pass it to Emogrifier.
Emogrifier automatically converts the provided (X)HTML into HTML5, i.e., self-closing tags will lose their slash. To keep your HTML valid, it is recommended to use HTML5 instead of one of the XHTML variants.
