Question about custom parsing

[GitVex]

Hey there!

This is a bit of an elaborate question.

I recently implemented a figurative login on top of quartz so I can control who can see which notes.

Now I want to make it so i can do a custom html tag so that I can "redact" parts of a note for some users.
I can get through essentially all steps of implementing this, but what I'm a bit in the dark about is the parsing of this html tag. I'd probably go for something like:

Please dont read me!

But since regular HTML tags aren't parsed either, I'd like to ask where I could implement this into the parsing pipeline.
Some pointers on HOW to implement this would be appreciated too, but I can probably figure this out too if I can find the rest of the parsers.

Thanks in advance and best regard,
Paul

Well, https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Web_components/Using_custom_elements

But we are using preact to transpile jsx into html, so you might have to check how they handle custom props.

fwiw we only use jsx for templating, and not for any specific other preact features.

if you set a certain users flow within the body dataset, then you can probably render the target specific html blocks you want to hide with js "afterDOMReady" (albeit ablate the div and then fetch it back somehow for users who can have access to it)

but at this point might as well use a proper framework like astro or svelte, where they have proper state management and better "solution" to build a CMS support.

i'm not saying you can't build CMS for Quartz, just with a lot more work :)

Ah I see. Thanks for the info!

I've been meaning to do something with Astro for a while. So I might go in an try to do that.
The only thing that's been bugging me is loosing functions like the search and Explorer. Any way I could easilly port those to an Astro implementation?

Or should I just bite the bullet and implement those for Astro?

[aarnphm]

I'm sure you can implement something similar in astro.

It would be sick if you build a CMS for Quartz :) lmk if there is anything I can help with there
