Defined in:

#to_plain_text ⇒ Object

Returns a plain-text version of the markup contained by the content, with tags removed but HTML entities encoded.

content = ActionText::Content.new("<h1>Funny times!</h1>")
content.to_plain_text # => "Funny times!"

content = ActionText::Content.new("<div onclick='action()'>safe<script>unsafe</script></div>")
content.to_plain_text # => "safeunsafe"

content = ActionText::Content.new("&lt;script&gt;alert()&lt;/script&gt;")

ActionText::ContentHelper.sanitizer.sanitize(content.to_plain_text) # => ""
