In Deno with esm.sh
:
import remarkLintListItemIndent from 'https://esm.sh/remark-lint-list-item-indent@3'
In browsers with esm.sh
:
<script type="module">
import remarkLintListItemIndent from 'https://esm.sh/remark-lint-list-item-indent@3?bundle'
</script>
Use
On the API:
import remarkLint from 'remark-lint'
import remarkLintListItemIndent from 'remark-lint-list-item-indent'
import remarkParse from 'remark-parse'
import remarkStringify from 'remark-stringify'
import {read} from 'to-vfile'
import {unified} from 'unified'
import {reporter} from 'vfile-reporter'
const file = await read('example.md')
await unified()
.use(remarkParse)
.use(remarkLint)
.use(remarkLintListItemIndent)
.use(remarkStringify)
.process(file)
console.error(reporter(file))
On the CLI:
remark --frail --use remark-lint --use remark-lint-list-item-indent .
On the CLI in a config file (here a package.json

Recommendation
First some background.
The number of spaces that occur after list markers (*
, -
, and +
for
unordered lists and .
and )
for unordered lists) and before the content
on the first line,
defines how much indentation can be used for further lines.
At least one space is required and up to 4 spaces are allowed.
If there is no further content after the marker then it’s a blank line which
is handled as if there was one space.
If there are 5 or more spaces and then content then it’s also seen as one
space and the rest is seen as indented code.
Regardless of ordered and unordered,
there are two kinds of lists in markdown,
tight and loose.
Lists are tight by default but if there is a blank line between two list
items or between two blocks inside an item,
that turns the whole list into a loose list.
When turning markdown into HTML,
paragraphs in tight lists are not wrapped in <p>
tags.
How indentation of lists works in markdown has historically been a mess,
especially with how they interact with indented code.
CommonMark made that a lot better,
but there remain (documented but complex) edge cases and some behavior
intuitive.
Due to this, 'tab'
works the best in most markdown parsers and in
CommonMark.
Currently the situation between markdown parsers is better,
so the default 'one'
,
which seems to be the most common style used by authors,
is okay.
Fix
remark-stringify
uses listItemIndent: 'one'
by default.
listItemIndent: 'mixed'
or listItemIndent: 'tab'
is also supported.

Compatibility
Projects maintained by the unified collective are compatible with maintained versions of Node.js.
When we cut a new major release, we drop support for unmaintained versions of
Node.
This means we try to keep the current release line,
remark-lint-list-item-indent@3
,
compatible with Node.js 12.
