gitbook-plugin-scramble-mailto

This gitbook plugin scrambles / obscures mailto links found in the book source. Requires gitbook >=3.1.0.

The email address may be obscured according to 2 methods, selectable in your book.json:

• jsFunction: opens a on the fly generated mailto link via javascript (default)
• htmlEncode: replaces the email address with a randomly encoded version

Currently the filter applies to any <a>-tag with a mailto: in the href.

If you write the email not only in the href but also in the rendered text of an anchor, a safe replacement is not guaranteed.

usage

1. add the plugin to your book.json, and optionally configure it. example:

   {
     "gitbook": "3.1.0",
     "plugins": [ "scramble-mailto"],
     "scramble-mailto": {
       "scrambleMethod": "htmlEncode" // optional, defaults to "jsFunction"
     }
   }
   

2. run gitbook install

3. hopefully stay safe from spambots ;)
