How to check if it’s an HTML email in JavaScript/Vue.js

in Code Write a comment

In this tutorial you’ll learn how to quickly check if returned email is an HTML email or not.

One of my Vue.js projects has a messaging section. Where users can send and receive messages (emails) internally as well as externally.

Users can read incoming messages. The app checks whether it’s an HTML email or not. If it’s an HTML email it will display this message as unescaped HTML in Vue.js template with a custom class.


Hi, I'm Renat 👋

 


Here’s how I coded it.

I’ve got an isHtmlEmail method that checks if the email starts with <!DOCTYPE string. HTML emails start with this tag.

isHtmlEmail(email) {
  return email.startsWith('<!DOCTYPE')
},

You can then add this condition to your template and render it as you wish.

<div v-if="isHtmlEmail" v-html="item.Text"></div>
