remark-lint rule to warn when unordered list markers are inconsistent.

Contents

What is this?

This package is a unified (remark) plugin, specifically a remark-lint rule. Lint rules check markdown code style.

When should I use this?

You can use this package to check that unordered list markers (bullets) are consistent.

Presets

This rule is included in the following presets:

Preset Setting
remark-preset-lint-markdown-style-guide '-'

Install

This package is ESM only. In Node.js (version 12.20+, 14.14+, or 16.0+), install with npm:

npm install remark-lint-unordered-list-marker-style

In Deno with esm.sh:

import remarkLintUnorderedListMarkerStyle from 'https://esm.sh/remark-lint-unordered-list-marker-style@3'

In browsers with esm.sh:

<script type="module">
  import remarkLintUnorderedListMarkerStyle from 'https://esm.sh/remark-lint-unordered-list-marker-style@3?bundle'
</script>

Use

On the API:

import {read} from 'to-vfile'
import {reporter} from 'vfile-reporter'
import {remark} from 'remark'
import remarkLint from 'remark-lint'
import remarkLintUnorderedListMarkerStyle from 'remark-lint-unordered-list-marker-style'

main()

async function main() {
  const file = await remark()
    .use(remarkLint)
    .use(remarkLintUnorderedListMarkerStyle)
    .process(await read('example.md'))

  console.error(reporter(file))
}

On the CLI:

remark --use remark-lint --use remark-lint-unordered-list-marker-style example.md

On the CLI in a config file (here a package.json):

 …
 "remarkConfig": {
   "plugins": [
     …
     "remark-lint",
+    "remark-lint-unordered-list-marker-style",
     …
   ]
 }
 …

API

This package exports no identifiers. The default export is remarkLintUnorderedListMarkerStyle.

unified().use(remarkLintUnorderedListMarkerStyle[, config])

This rule supports standard configuration that all remark lint rules accept (such as false to turn it off or [1, options] to configure it).

The following options (default: 'consistent') are accepted:

  • '*' — prefer asterisks
  • '+' — prefer plusses
  • '-' — prefer dashes
  • 'consistent' — detect the first used style and warn when further markers differ

Recommendation

Because asterisks can be used as a marker for more markdown constructs, its recommended to use that for lists (and thematic breaks, emphasis, strong) too.

Fix

remark-stringify formats ordered lists with asterisks by default. Pass bullet: '+' or bullet: '-' to always use plusses or dashes.

Examples

ok.md
In
By default (`'consistent'`), if the file uses only one marker,
thats OK.

* Baz

Ordered lists are not affected.

1. Foo
2. Bar
3. Baz
Out

No messages.

not-ok.md
In
* Foo
- Bar
+ Baz
Out
2:1-2:6: Marker style should be `*`
3:1-3:6: Marker style should be `*`
ok.md

When configured with '*'.

In
* Foo
Out

No messages.

ok.md

When configured with '-'.

In
- Foo
Out

No messages.

ok.md

When configured with '+'.

In
