Feature request: removal of attributes by regex

[certainlyakey]

Thanks for a great (and greatly implemented) addon!

I have a request that will be familiar to anybody working with Angular. Angular adds a lot of attributes of its own into generated markup, like this:

Would it be possible to add a feature that would filter out an array of markup attributes by regex? So that we could strip out any attribute that begins from _ng or ng- and thus have a clean markup, leaving the Storybook consumers with all the parts that are really important.

Sounds like a good idea. Depending on your reason for showing HTML to the user it would be nice to decide exactly what attributes to hide yourself, like you suggest. I think we should add a parameter that filters all attributes and that can be set to either a blacklist array of strings, a regex or a filter function (that could also receive the tag name and attribute value for more advanced filtering).

yes, that’s exactly what i meant 🙂 The regex feature for attribute names would be something that is definitely needed, since at least Angular generates quite random names.
