## Sanitizers
Here is a list of the sanitizers currently available.
-Sanitizer | Description
--------------------------------------- | -------------------------------
-**blacklist(input, chars)** | remove characters that appear in the blacklist. The characters are used in a RegExp and so you will need to escape some chars, e.g. `blacklist(input, '\\[\\]')`.
-**escape(input)** | replace `<`, `>`, `&`, `'`, `"` and `/` with HTML entities.
-**ltrim(input [, chars])** | trim characters from the left-side of the input.
-**normalizeEmail(email [, options])** | canonicalize an email address. (This doesn't validate that the input is an email, if you want to validate the email use isEmail beforehand).
`options` is an object with the following keys and default values:
- *all_lowercase: true* - Transforms the local part (before the @ symbol) of all email addresses to lowercase. Please note that this may violate RFC 5321, which gives providers the possibility to treat the local part of email addresses in a case sensitive way (although in practice most - yet not all - providers don't). The domain part of the email address is always lowercased, as it is case insensitive per RFC 1035.
- *gmail_lowercase: true* - Gmail addresses are known to be case-insensitive, so this switch allows lowercasing them even when *all_lowercase* is set to false. Please note that when *all_lowercase* is true, Gmail addresses are lowercased regardless of the value of this setting.
- *gmail_remove_dots: true*: Removes dots from the local part of the email address, as Gmail ignores them (e.g. "john.doe" and "johndoe" are considered equal).
- *gmail_remove_subaddress: true*: Normalizes addresses by removing "sub-addresses", which is the part following a "+" sign (e.g. "foo+bar@gmail.com" becomes "foo@gmail.com").
- *gmail_convert_googlemaildotcom: true*: Converts addresses with domain @googlemail.com to @gmail.com, as they're equivalent.
- *outlookdotcom_lowercase: true* - Outlook.com addresses (including Windows Live and Hotmail) are known to be case-insensitive, so this switch allows lowercasing them even when *all_lowercase* is set to false. Please note that when *all_lowercase* is true, Outlook.com addresses are lowercased regardless of the value of this setting.
- *outlookdotcom_remove_subaddress: true*: Normalizes addresses by removing "sub-addresses", which is the part following a "+" sign (e.g. "foo+bar@outlook.com" becomes "foo@outlook.com").
- *yahoo_lowercase: true* - Yahoo Mail addresses are known to be case-insensitive, so this switch allows lowercasing them even when *all_lowercase* is set to false. Please note that when *all_lowercase* is true, Yahoo Mail addresses are lowercased regardless of the value of this setting.
- *yahoo_remove_subaddress: true*: Normalizes addresses by removing "sub-addresses", which is the part following a "-" sign (e.g. "foo-bar@yahoo.com" becomes "foo@yahoo.com").
- *icloud_lowercase: true* - iCloud addresses (including MobileMe) are known to be case-insensitive, so this switch allows lowercasing them even when *all_lowercase* is set to false. Please note that when *all_lowercase* is true, iCloud addresses are lowercased regardless of the value of this setting.
- *icloud_remove_subaddress: true*: Normalizes addresses by removing "sub-addresses", which is the part following a "+" sign (e.g. "foo+bar@icloud.com" becomes "foo@icloud.com").
-**rtrim(input [, chars])** | trim characters from the right-side of the input.
-**stripLow(input [, keep_new_lines])** | remove characters with a numerical value < 32 and 127, mostly control characters. If `keep_new_lines` is `true`, newline characters are preserved (`\n` and `\r`, hex `0xA` and `0xD`). Unicode-safe in JavaScript.
-**toBoolean(input [, strict])** | convert the input string to a boolean. Everything except for `'0'`, `'false'` and `''` returns `true`. In strict mode only `'1'` and `'true'` return `true`.
-**toDate(input)** | convert the input string to a date, or `null` if the input is not a date.
-**toFloat(input)** | convert the input string to a float, or `NaN` if the input is not a float.
-**toInt(input [, radix])** | convert the input string to an integer, or `NaN` if the input is not an integer.
-**trim(input [, chars])** | trim characters (whitespace by default) from both sides of the input.
-**unescape(input)** | replace HTML encoded entities with `<`, `>`, `&`, `'`, `"` and `/`.
-**whitelist(input, chars)** | remove characters that do not appear in the whitelist. The characters are used in a RegExp and so you will need to escape some chars, e.g. `whitelist(input, '\\[\\]')`.
