TypeError: clean() got an unexpected keyword argument 'styles'

[haradhansharma]

clean of bleach does not have styles but why it is passing here I do not understand! return bleach.clean( value, tags=ALLOWED_TAGS, attributes=ATTRIBUTES, styles=STYLES)

Below is the clean of bleach:
def clean( text, tags=ALLOWED_TAGS, attributes=ALLOWED_ATTRIBUTES, protocols=ALLOWED_PROTOCOLS, strip=False, strip_comments=True, css_sanitizer=None, ):

If you're using a normal form (not ModelForm), you may avoid using SummernoteTextFormField() or SummernoteTextField(). Just use the widget SummernoteInplaceWidget() or any widget. I faced the same issue and that's how I solved it. Anyway you sould not use it now. Consider having something like : comment = forms.CharField(widget=SummernoteWidget(attrs={}))
Of course you should import the widget first.

I am using an older version of the bleach library. To resolve the issue, I uninstalled it and then reinstalled version 4.1.0 using the command

pip install bleach==4.1.0

An alternative to pinning to an older version of bleach is to re-implement the summernote field using bleach's updated API:

import bleach
from bleach.css_sanitizer import CSSSanitizer
from django.forms import fields
from django_summernote import settings as summernote_settings
from django_summernote.widgets import SummernoteWidget


class RichTextField(fields.CharField):
    def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
        kwargs.update({"widget": SummernoteWidget()})
        super().__init__(*args, **kwargs)

    def to_python(self, value):
        value = super().to_python(value)

        return bleach.clean(
            value,
            attributes=summernote_settings.ATTRIBUTES,
            css_sanitizer=CSSSanitizer(allowed_css_properties=summernote_settings.STYLES), 
            tags=summernote_settings.ALLOWED_TAGS,
        )

        # or, using nh3, instead of bleach
        # See https://daniel.feldroy.com/posts/2023-06-converting-from-bleach-to-nh3
        return nh3.clean(
            value,
            attributes={k: set(v) for k, v in summernote_settings.ATTRIBUTES.items()},
            tags=set(summernote_settings.ALLOWED_TAGS),
            url_schemes={"http", "https", "mailto"},
        )

Bleach no longer accepts the style argument, and instead accepts a css_sanitizer argument.

This is most likely what the SummernoteFormTextField would look like once updated

EDIT: Added option for integration with nh3 instead of bleach

In PR #499, bleach was replaced by nh3.
