PurgeAttributes, an Anki addon to purge unnecessary attributes

Introduction

PurgeAttributes is used to purge the font-size attribute originally. But you can purge any attribute defined in something like style='font-size: 100px; color: red'.

Install

Put PurgeAttributes.py in your anki addon directory and restart.

Usage

Put all the files under PurgeAttributes(including PurgeAttributes.py and PurgeAttribues folder which contains bs4) into your Anki add-ons folder.

Effects

It will purge the four attributes by default:

• font-family
• font-size
• background-color
• line-height

If you are running Anki with a high-resolution like me, and you didn’t strip the html when pasting like me, you may encounter something like this:

If you use the addon, it will remove the yellow background and remove the font-size attribute, because the font size here is small. The result is like this:

Now it’s not hard to see, right?

Configuration

To choose which attribute you need to remove, edit the purgeAttributes.py file from menu Tools --> Add-ons --> PurgeAttributes --> Edit, and modify the variable REMOVE_ATTRIBUTES at will.
