Rivetizer

Rivetizer is a utility that converts XHTML fetched from the KMS REST API to Rivet-friendly HTML.

Use this function to seamlessly embed KMS documents into your Rivet-powered website without writing custom CSS to target KMS-specific elements and classes.

Using the Rivetizer

The Rivetizer provides a single function, rivetize(), that takes 2 parameters:

• kmsXhtml: The XHTML fetched from the KMS REST API, as a string.
• cssClasses: An object describing what CSS classes should be applied to headings, paragraphs, and alerts. The object must contain the following keys:
  • h1
  • h2
  • h3
  • p
  • alert

Example cssClasses object

const cssClasses = {
    h1: 'rvt-ts-41 rvt-text-bold rvt-lh-title rvt-m-all-remove rvt-p-bottom-xs',
    h2: 'rvt-ts-20 rvt-text-bold rvt-lh-title rvt-m-all-remove rvt-p-bottom-xs',
    h3: 'rvt-text-bold rvt-lh-title',
    p: 'rvt-ts-base',
    alert: 'rvt-m-top-md rvt-m-bottom-md'
};

The rivetize() function returns Rivet-flavored HTML as a string.

Example use

Below is an example of how you might use rivetize() along with the Fetch API.

const cssClasses = {
    h1: 'rvt-ts-41 rvt-text-bold rvt-lh-title rvt-m-all-remove rvt-p-bottom-xs',
    h2: 'rvt-ts-20 rvt-text-bold rvt-lh-title rvt-p-bottom-xs rvt-m-all-remove',
    h3: 'rvt-text-bold rvt-lh-title',
    p: 'rvt-ts-base',
    alert: 'rvt-m-top-md rvt-m-bottom-md'
};

fetch('/path/to/kms/api')
    .then((response) => {
        if (response.ok) {
            response.text().then((kmsXhtml) => {
                let rivetHtml = rivetize(kmsXhtml, cssClasses);

                // Do something with rivetHtml.
            });
        }
    });

What the Rivetizer does

The rivetize() function makes several transformations to the XHTML fetched from the KMS:

• Removes the related articles box at the end of the document
• Removes "back to top" links
• Removes horizontal rules
• Tags headings with Rivet typography classes
• Tags paragraphs with Rivet typography classes
• Tags panels with Rivet alert classes
• Wraps code snippets in appropriate HTML tags
