XmlSanitizer
XML sanitization with Loofah and Nokogiri.
scrubber = XmlSanitizer::DefaultPermitScrubber.new
scrubber.tags = ["foo", "bar"]
xml = '<foo><bar><baz>baz</baz></bar></foo>'
XmlSanitizer.sanitize(xml: xml, scrubber: scrubber) # or use your custom scrubber
# => "<?xml version=\"1.0\"?>\n<foo>\n <bar/>\n</foo>\n"The default scrubber will remove all non-permitted tags and their subtrees.
