Extending with your own tags!

HtmlText additionally supports implementing your own tags, or overriding the existing implementations:

private enum class NamedColor(val color: Color) {
    Red(Color.Red),
    Green(Color.Green),
    Blue(Color.Blue)
    // ...
}

/**
 * A colourable HTML element, using an attribute `color` to set its content's colour.
 */
val HtmlColorable = HtmlElementRenderer { element, modifier ->

    val color = element.attr("color")
        .takeIf { it.isNotBlank() }
        ?.lowercase()
        ?.let { NamedColor.entries.find { entry -> entry.name.lowercase() == it } }
        ?.color
        ?: LocalContentColor.current

    ProvideTextStyle(TextStyle(color = color)) {
        HtmlChildRenderer(element, modifier)
    }

}

@Composable
fun App() {

    val originalTagMap = LocalHtmlTextTagMap.current
    val extendedTagMap = remember {
        originalTagMap.extend(
            "colorable" to HtmlColorable
        )
    }

    CompositionLocalProvider(LocalHtmlTextTagMap provides extendedTagMap) {
        HtmlText(document)
    }

}
