How to render properly HTML inside messages ? about fosmessagebundle HOT 6 CLOSED

if you don't want to use the markdown syntax but directly html, you also need to overwrite the rendering to add a raw filter to avoid the escaping. But note that this can open a XSS hole if you allow any HTML in the message. Using markdow would probably be better.

Ok, that what i thought.

Any advise on how to put $html = $this->container->get('markdown.parser')->transform($text); without putting it in the MessageBundle Controller ?

Do i need do create an inherited bundle for that line of code ?

Thanks @stof

I don't see where you want to put it in the controller.

oh, right. I thought, you had to transform the text before persisted (for auto link for example).

transforming the text before persisting is wrong. Parsing the Markdown to get the html output should be done when rendering the output, which allows displaying the markdown syntax in a form field without parsing it for instance.

I found this thread because I have just come across the same issue, but am not entirely clear about your solution. In my use case, I want to format a message using html when the message is generated automatically by the system eg. sending a new user a welcome email. I'm not worried about formatting any user generated messages. Should I still use Markdown or can I do something else. I am currently using $this->renderView("pathToTemplate.html.twig") to return the template as a string because when I use $this->render() I get all kinds of headers as well. Any help would be gratefully received!
