InputSanitizer 0.0.4

InputSanitizer

InputSanitizer is a filter used to clear all illegal strings from the data received by the API or MVC Controller.

It is based on HtmlSanitizer as an HTML-related cleaner, and also adds Regex pattern matching cleanup.

It supports data model binding in DTO mode and also supports dynamic types based on Json.

How To Use

Add InputSanitize to ServiceCollection with policy in Program.cs

var policy = new InputSanitizerPolicy()
            {
                Name = "Default",
                AllowedTags = new HashSet<string>(HtmlSanitizerDefaults.AllowedTags, StringComparer.OrdinalIgnoreCase),
                AllowedSchemes = new HashSet<string>(HtmlSanitizerDefaults.AllowedSchemes, StringComparer.OrdinalIgnoreCase),
                AllowedAttributes = new HashSet<string>(HtmlSanitizerDefaults.AllowedAttributes, StringComparer.OrdinalIgnoreCase),
                UriAttributes = new HashSet<string>(HtmlSanitizerDefaults.UriAttributes, StringComparer.OrdinalIgnoreCase),
                AllowedCssProperties = new HashSet<string>(HtmlSanitizerDefaults.AllowedCssProperties, StringComparer.OrdinalIgnoreCase),
                AllowedAtRules = new HashSet<CssRuleType>(HtmlSanitizerDefaults.AllowedAtRules),
                AllowedCssClasses = new HashSet<string>(HtmlSanitizerDefaults.AllowedClasses),
                ExceptionMessage = "What are you doing?",
                InvalidInputBehaviour = InvalidInputBehaviour.SetModelState
            }
            
builder.Services.AddInputSanitizer(InputSanitizerPolicies.Policies);

Add To the Controller

    [ApiController]
    [Route("[controller]")]
    [SanitizeAllInputFilter(PolicyName = "Default")]  // this line HERE
    public class WeatherForecastController : ControllerBase
    {
        private readonly ILogger<WeatherForecastController> _logger;

        public WeatherForecastController(ILogger<WeatherForecastController> logger)
        {
            _logger = logger;
        }

        [HttpPost(Name = "PostWeatherForecast")]
        public IActionResult Post(DTOModel data)    // OR public IActionResult Post(dynamic data)
        {
            if (!ModelState.IsValid)
            {
                return UnprocessableEntity(ModelState);
            }
            return Ok(data);
        }
    }
