# Custom Rules
|
||||
|
||||
In addition to its built-in rules, `markdownlint` lets you enhance the linting
|
||||
experience by passing an array of custom rules using the [`options.customRules`
|
||||
property][options-custom-rules]. Custom rules can do everything the built-in
|
||||
rules can and are defined inline or imported from another package ([keyword
|
||||
`markdownlint-rule` on npm][markdownlint-rule]). When defined by a file or
|
||||
package, the export can be a single rule object (see below) or an array of them.
|
||||
Custom rules can be disabled, enabled, and customized using the same syntax as
|
||||
built-in rules.
|
||||
|
||||
## Implementing Simple Rules
|
||||
|
||||
For simple requirements like disallowing certain characters or patterns,
|
||||
the community-developed
|
||||
[markdownlint-rule-search-replace][markdownlint-rule-search-replace]
|
||||
plug-in can be used. This plug-in allows anyone to create a set of simple
|
||||
text-replacement rules without needing to write code.
|
||||
|
||||
[markdownlint-rule-search-replace]: https://www.npmjs.com/package/markdownlint-rule-search-replace
|
||||
|
||||
## Authoring
|
||||
|
||||
Rules are defined by a name (or multiple names), a description, an optional link
|
||||
to more information, one or more tags, and a function that implements the rule's
|
||||
behavior. That function is called once for each file/string input and is passed
|
||||
the parsed input and a function to log any violations.
|
||||
|
||||
Custom rules can (should) operate on a structured set of tokens based on the
|
||||
[`micromark`][micromark] `parser` (this is preferred). Alternatively, custom
|
||||
rules can operate on a structured set of tokens based on the
|
||||
[`markdown-it`][markdown-it] `parser` (legacy support). Finally, custom rules
|
||||
can operate directly on text with the `none` `parser`.
|
||||
|
||||
A simple rule implementation using the `micromark` parser to report a violation
|
||||
for any use of blockquotes might look like:
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
/** @type {import("markdownlint").Rule} */
|
||||
module.exports = {
|
||||
"names": [ "any-blockquote-micromark" ],
|
||||
"description": "Rule that reports an error for any blockquote",
|
||||
"information": new URL("https://example.com/rules/any-blockquote"),
|
||||
"tags": [ "test" ],
|
||||
"parser": "micromark",
|
||||
"function": (params, onError) => {
|
||||
const blockquotes = params.parsers.micromark.tokens
|
||||
.filter((token) => token.type === "blockQuote");
|
||||
for (const blockquote of blockquotes) {
|
||||
const lines = blockquote.endLine - blockquote.startLine + 1;
|
||||
onError({
|
||||
"lineNumber": blockquote.startLine,
|
||||
"detail": "Blockquote spans " + lines + " line(s).",
|
||||
"context": params.lines[blockquote.startLine - 1]
|
||||
});
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
That same rule implemented using the `markdown-it` parser might look like:
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
/** @type {import("markdownlint").Rule} */
|
||||
module.exports = {
|
||||
"names": [ "any-blockquote-markdown-it" ],
|
||||
"description": "Rule that reports an error for any blockquote",
|
||||
"information": new URL("https://example.com/rules/any-blockquote"),
|
||||
"tags": [ "test" ],
|
||||
"parser": "markdownit",
|
||||
"function": (params, onError) => {
|
||||
const blockquotes = params.parsers.markdownit.tokens
|
||||
.filter((token) => token.type === "blockquote_open");
|
||||
for (const blockquote of blockquotes) {
|
||||
const [ startIndex, endIndex ] = blockquote.map;
|
||||
const lines = endIndex - startIndex;
|
||||
onError({
|
||||
"lineNumber": blockquote.lineNumber,
|
||||
"detail": "Blockquote spans " + lines + " line(s).",
|
||||
"context": blockquote.line
|
||||
});
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
A rule is implemented as an `Object`:
|
||||
|
||||
- `names` is a required `Array` of `String` values that identify the rule in
|
||||
output messages and config.
|
||||
- `description` is a required `String` value that describes the rule in output
|
||||
messages.
|
||||
- `information` is an optional (absolute) `URL` of a link to more information
|
||||
about the rule.
|
||||
- `tags` is a required `Array` of `String` values that groups related rules for
|
||||
easier customization.
|
||||
- `parser` is a required `String` value `"markdownit" | "micromark" | "none"`
|
||||
that specifies the parser data used via `params.parsers` (see below).
|
||||
- `asynchronous` is an optional `Boolean` value that indicates whether the rule
|
||||
returns a `Promise` and runs asynchronously.
|
||||
- `function` is a required `Function` that implements the rule and is passed two
|
||||
parameters:
|
||||
- `params` is an `Object` with properties that describe the content being
|
||||
analyzed:
|
||||
- `name` is a `String` that identifies the input file/string.
|
||||
- `parsers` is an `Object` with properties corresponding to the value of
|
||||
`parser` in the rule definition (see above).
|
||||
- `markdownit` is an `Object` that provides access to output from the
|
||||
[`markdown-it`][markdown-it] parser.
|
||||
- `tokens` is an `Array` of [`markdown-it` `Token`s][markdown-it-token]
|
||||
with added `line` and `lineNumber` properties. (This property was
|
||||
previously on the `params` object.)
|
||||
- `micromark` is an `Object` that provides access to output from the
|
||||
[`micromark`][micromark] parser.
|
||||
- `tokens` is an `Array` of [`MicromarkToken`][micromark-token] objects.
|
||||
- Samples for both `tokens` are available via [test snapshots][tokens].
|
||||
- `lines` is an `Array` of `String` values corresponding to the lines of the
|
||||
input file/string.
|
||||
- `frontMatterLines` is an `Array` of `String` values corresponding to any
|
||||
front matter (not present in `lines`).
|
||||
- `config` is an `Object` corresponding to the rule's entry in
|
||||
`options.config` (if present).
|
||||
- `version` is a `String` that corresponds to the version of `markdownlint`
|
||||
- `onError` is a function that takes a single `Object` parameter with one
|
||||
required and four optional properties:
|
||||
- `lineNumber` is a required `Number` specifying the 1-based line number of
|
||||
the error.
|
||||
- `detail` is an optional `String` with information about what caused the
|
||||
error.
|
||||
- `context` is an optional `String` with relevant text surrounding the error
|
||||
location.
|
||||
- `information` is an optional (absolute) `URL` of a link to override the
|
||||
same-named value provided by the rule definition. (Uncommon)
|
||||
- `range` is an optional `Array` with two `Number` values identifying the
|
||||
1-based column and length of the error.
|
||||
- `fixInfo` is an optional `Object` with information about how to fix the
|
||||
error (all properties are optional, but at least one of `deleteCount` and
|
||||
`insertText` should be present; when applying a fix, the delete should be
|
||||
performed before the insert):
|
||||
- `lineNumber` is an optional `Number` specifying the 1-based line number
|
||||
of the edit.
|
||||
- `editColumn` is an optional `Number` specifying the 1-based column
|
||||
number of the edit.
|
||||
- `deleteCount` is an optional `Number` specifying the number of
|
||||
characters to delete (the value `-1` is used to delete the line).
|
||||
- `insertText` is an optional `String` specifying the text to insert. `\n`
|
||||
is the platform-independent way to add a line break; line breaks should
|
||||
be added at the beginning of a line instead of at the end.
|
||||
|
||||
The collection of helper functions shared by the built-in rules is available for
|
||||
use by custom rules in the [markdownlint-rule-helpers package][rule-helpers].
|
||||
|
||||
### Asynchronous Rules
|
||||
|
||||
If a rule needs to perform asynchronous operations (such as fetching a network
|
||||
resource), it can specify the value `true` for its `asynchronous` property.
|
||||
Asynchronous rules should return a `Promise` from their `function`
|
||||
implementation that is resolved when the rule completes. (The value passed to
|
||||
`resolve(...)` is ignored.) Linting violations from asynchronous rules are
|
||||
reported via the `onError` function just like for synchronous rules.
|
||||
|
||||
**Note**: Asynchronous rules cannot be referenced in a synchronous calling
|
||||
context (i.e., `import { lint } from "markdownlint/sync"`). Attempting to do so
|
||||
throws an exception.

# Using `markdownlint` with Prettier
|
||||
|
||||
[`Prettier`](https://prettier.io) is a popular code formatter.
|
||||
For the most part, Prettier works seamlessly with `markdownlint`.
|
||||
|
||||
You can `extend` the [`prettier.json`](../style/prettier.json) style to disable
|
||||
all `markdownlint` rules that overlap with Prettier.
|
||||
|
||||
Other scenarios are documented below.
|
||||
|
||||
## List item indentation
|
||||
|
||||
The default settings of `markdownlint` and `Prettier` are compatible and don't
|
||||
result in any linting violations. If `Prettier` is used with `--tab-width` set
|
||||
to `4` (vs. `2`), the following `markdownlint` configuration can be used:
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"list-marker-space": {
|
||||
"ul_multi": 3,
|
||||
"ul_single": 3
|
||||
},
|
||||
"ul-indent": {
|
||||
"indent": 4
|
||||
}

# Release Process
|
||||
|
||||
The `markdownlint` library has some related dependencies that are updated along
|
||||
with it. To prevent possible regressions from having a widespread impact, these
|
||||
releases are separated by a few days to provide an opportunity to find issues.
|
||||
|
||||
1. [`markdownlint`][markdownlint]
|
||||
2. [`markdownlint-cli2`][markdownlint-cli2]
|
||||
3. [`markdownlint-cli2-action`][markdownlint-cli2-action]
|
||||
4. [`vscode-markdownlint`][vscode-markdownlint]
|
||||
5. [`markdownlint-cli`][markdownlint-cli]
|
||||
|
||||
This sequence is not strict and may be adjusted based on the content of the
|
||||
release and the scope of feature work in each dependency.

# `MD001` - Heading levels should only increment by one level at a time
|
||||
|
||||
Tags: `headings`
|
||||
|
||||
Aliases: `heading-increment`
|
||||
|
||||
Parameters:
|
||||
|
||||
- `front_matter_title`: RegExp for matching title in front matter (`string`,
|
||||
default `^\s*title\s*[:=]`)
|
||||
|
||||
This rule is triggered when you skip heading levels in a Markdown document, for
|
||||
example:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
# Heading 1
|
||||
|
||||
### Heading 3
|
||||
|
||||
We skipped out a 2nd level heading in this document
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
When using multiple heading levels, nested headings should increase by only one
|
||||
level at a time:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
# Heading 1
|
||||
|
||||
## Heading 2
|
||||
|
||||
### Heading 3
|
||||
|
||||
#### Heading 4
|
||||
|
||||
## Another Heading 2
|
||||
|
||||
### Another Heading 3
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
If [YAML](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/YAML) front matter is present and
|
||||
contains a `title` property (commonly used with blog posts), this rule treats
|
||||
that as a top level heading and will report a violation if the actual first
|
||||
heading is not a level 2 heading. To use a different property name in the
|
||||
front matter, specify the text of a regular expression via the
|
||||
`front_matter_title` parameter. To disable the use of front matter by this
|
||||
rule, specify `""` for `front_matter_title`. When front matter is not present,
|
||||
the first heading can be any level.
|
||||
|
||||
Rationale: Headings represent the structure of a document and can be confusing
|
||||
when skipped - especially for accessibility scenarios. More information:

# `MD003` - Heading style
|
||||
|
||||
Tags: `headings`
|
||||
|
||||
Aliases: `heading-style`
|
||||
|
||||
Parameters:
|
||||
|
||||
- `style`: Heading style (`string`, default `consistent`, values `atx` /
|
||||
`atx_closed` / `consistent` / `setext` / `setext_with_atx` /
|
||||
`setext_with_atx_closed`)
|
||||
|
||||
This rule is triggered when different heading styles are used in the same
|
||||
document:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
# ATX style H1
|
||||
|
||||
## Closed ATX style H2 ##
|
||||
|
||||
Setext style H1
|
||||
===============
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
To fix the issue, use consistent heading styles throughout the document:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
# ATX style H1
|
||||
|
||||
## ATX style H2
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The `setext_with_atx` and `setext_with_atx_closed` settings allow ATX-style
|
||||
headings of level 3 or more in documents with setext-style headings (which only
|
||||
support level 1 and 2 headings):
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
Setext style H1
|
||||
===============
|
||||
|
||||
Setext style H2
|
||||
---------------
|
||||
|
||||
### ATX style H3
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Note: The configured heading style can be a specific style to require (`atx`,
|
||||
`atx_closed`, `setext`, `setext_with_atx`, `setext_with_atx_closed`), or can
|
||||
require that all heading styles match the first heading style via `consistent`.
|
||||
|
||||
Note: The placement of a horizontal rule directly below a line of text can
|
||||
trigger this rule by turning that text into a level 2 setext-style heading:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
A line of text followed by a horizontal rule becomes a heading
|
||||
---
|
||||
```
|
||||

# `MD004` - Unordered list style
|
||||
|
||||
Tags: `bullet`, `ul`
|
||||
|
||||
Aliases: `ul-style`
|
||||
|
||||
Parameters:
|
||||
|
||||
- `style`: List style (`string`, default `consistent`, values `asterisk` /
|
||||
`consistent` / `dash` / `plus` / `sublist`)
|
||||
|
||||
Fixable: Some violations can be fixed by tooling
|
||||
|
||||
This rule is triggered when the symbols used in the document for unordered
|
||||
list items do not match the configured unordered list style:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
* Item 1
|
||||
+ Item 2
|
||||
- Item 3
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
To fix this issue, use the configured style for list items throughout the
|
||||
document:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
* Item 1
|
||||
* Item 2
|
||||
* Item 3
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The configured list style can ensure all list styling is a specific symbol
|
||||
(`asterisk`, `plus`, `dash`), ensure each sublist has a consistent symbol that
|
||||
differs from its parent list (`sublist`), or ensure all list styles match the
|
||||
first list style (`consistent`).
|
||||
|
||||
For example, the following is valid for the `sublist` style because the
|
||||
outer-most indent uses asterisk, the middle indent uses plus, and the inner-most
|
||||
indent uses dash:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
* Item 1
|
||||
+ Item 2
|
||||
- Item 3
|
||||
+ Item 4
|
||||
* Item 4
|
||||
+ Item 5
|
||||
```

# `MD005` - Inconsistent indentation for list items at the same level
|
||||
|
||||
Tags: `bullet`, `indentation`, `ul`
|
||||
|
||||
Aliases: `list-indent`
|
||||
|
||||
Fixable: Some violations can be fixed by tooling
|
||||
|
||||
This rule is triggered when list items are parsed as being at the same level,
|
||||
but don't have the same indentation:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
* Item 1
|
||||
* Nested Item 1
|
||||
* Nested Item 2
|
||||
* A misaligned item
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Usually, this rule will be triggered because of a typo. Correct the indentation
|
||||
for the list to fix it:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
* Item 1
|
||||
* Nested Item 1
|
||||
* Nested Item 2
|
||||
* Nested Item 3
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Sequentially-ordered list markers are usually left-aligned such that all items
|
||||
have the same starting column:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
...
|
||||
8. Item
|
||||
9. Item
|
||||
10. Item
|
||||
11. Item
|
||||
...
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This rule also supports right-alignment of list markers such that all items have
|
||||
the same ending column:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
...
|
||||
8. Item
|
||||
9. Item
|
||||
10. Item
|
||||
11. Item
|
||||
...

||||
```

|
||||
This rule is triggered when list items are not indented by the configured
|
||||
number of spaces (default: 2).
|
||||
|
||||
Example:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
* List item
|
||||
* Nested list item indented by 3 spaces
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Corrected Example:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
* List item
|
||||
* Nested list item indented by 2 spaces
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Note: This rule applies to a sublist only if its parent lists are all also
|
||||
unordered (otherwise, extra indentation of ordered lists interferes with the
|
||||
rule).
|
||||
|
||||
The `start_indented` parameter allows the first level of lists to be indented by
|
||||
the configured number of spaces rather than starting at zero. The `start_indent`
|
||||
parameter allows the first level of lists to be indented by a different number
|
||||
of spaces than the rest (ignored when `start_indented` is not set).
|
||||
|
||||
Rationale: Indenting by 2 spaces allows the content of a nested list to be in
|
||||
line with the start of the content of the parent list when a single space is
|
||||
used after the list marker. Indenting by 4 spaces is consistent with code blocks
|
||||
and simpler for editors to implement. Additionally, this can be a compatibility
|
||||
issue for other Markdown parsers, which require 4-space indents. More
|
||||
information: [Markdown Style Guide][markdown-style-guide].
|
||||
|
||||
Note: See [Prettier.md](Prettier.md) for compatibility information.

# `MD009` - Trailing spaces
|
||||
|
||||
Tags: `whitespace`
|
||||
|
||||
Aliases: `no-trailing-spaces`
|
||||
|
||||
Parameters:
|
||||
|
||||
- `br_spaces`: Spaces for line break (`integer`, default `2`)
|
||||
- `code_blocks`: Include code blocks (`boolean`, default `false`)
|
||||
- `list_item_empty_lines`: Allow spaces for empty lines in list items
|
||||
(`boolean`, default `false`)
|
||||
- `strict`: Include unnecessary breaks (`boolean`, default `false`)
|
||||
|
||||
Fixable: Some violations can be fixed by tooling
|
||||
|
||||
This rule is triggered on any lines that end with unexpected whitespace. To fix
|
||||
this, remove the trailing space from the end of the line.
|
||||
|
||||
The `br_spaces` parameter allows an exception to this rule for a specific number
|
||||
of trailing spaces, typically used to insert an explicit line break. The default
|
||||
value allows 2 spaces to indicate a hard break (\<br> element). (You must set
|
||||
`br_spaces` to a value >= 2 for this parameter to take effect. Setting
|
||||
`br_spaces` to 1 behaves the same as 0, disallowing any trailing spaces.)
|
||||
|
||||
By default, trailing space is allowed in indented and fenced code blocks because
|
||||
some programming languages require that. To report such instances, set the
|
||||
`code_blocks` parameter to `true`.
|
||||
|
||||
By default, this rule will not trigger when the allowed number of spaces is
|
||||
used, even when it doesn't create a hard break (for example, at the end of a
|
||||
paragraph). To report such instances, set the `strict` parameter to `true`.
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
Text text text
|
||||
text[2 spaces]
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Using spaces to indent blank lines inside a list item is usually not necessary,
|
||||
but some parsers require it. Set the `list_item_empty_lines` parameter to `true`
|
||||
to allow this (even when `strict` is `true`):
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
- list item text
|
||||
[2 spaces]
|
||||
list item text
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Rationale: Except when being used to create a line break, trailing whitespace
|
||||
has no purpose and does not affect the rendering of content.

# `MD010` - Hard tabs
|

|
||||
Tags: `hard_tab`, `whitespace`
|
||||
|
||||
Aliases: `no-hard-tabs`
|
||||
|
||||
Parameters:
|
||||
|
||||
- `code_blocks`: Include code blocks (`boolean`, default `true`)
|
||||
- `ignore_code_languages`: Fenced code languages to ignore (`string[]`, default
|
||||
`[]`)
|
||||
- `spaces_per_tab`: Number of spaces for each hard tab (`integer`, default `1`)
|
||||
|
||||
Fixable: Some violations can be fixed by tooling
|
||||
|
||||
This rule is triggered by any lines that contain hard tab characters instead
|
||||
of using spaces for indentation. To fix this, replace any hard tab characters
|
||||
with spaces instead.
|
||||
|
||||
Example:
|
||||
|
||||
<!-- markdownlint-disable no-hard-tabs -->
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
Some text
|
||||
|
||||
* hard tab character used to indent the list item
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
<!-- markdownlint-restore -->
|
||||
|
||||
Corrected example:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
Some text
|
||||
|
||||
* Spaces used to indent the list item instead
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
You have the option to exclude this rule for code blocks and spans. To do so,
|
||||
set the `code_blocks` parameter to `false`. Code blocks and spans are included
|
||||
by default since handling of tabs by Markdown tools can be inconsistent (e.g.,
|
||||
using 4 vs. 8 spaces).
|
||||
|
||||
When code blocks are scanned (e.g., by default or if `code_blocks` is `true`),
|
||||
the `ignore_code_languages` parameter can be set to a list of languages that
|
||||
should be ignored (i.e., hard tabs will be allowed, though not required). This
|
||||
makes it easier for documents to include code for languages that require hard
|
||||
tabs.
|
||||
|
||||
By default, violations of this rule are fixed by replacing the tab with 1 space
|
||||
character. To use a different number of spaces, set the `spaces_per_tab`
|
||||
parameter to the desired value.
|
||||
|
||||
Rationale: Hard tabs are often rendered inconsistently by different editors and
|
||||
can be harder to work with than spaces.

# `MD013` - Line length
|

Tags: `line_length`

||||
|

Aliases: `line-length`
|
||||
|
||||
Parameters:
|
||||
|
||||
- `code_block_line_length`: Number of characters for code blocks (`integer`,
|
||||
default `80`)
|
||||
- `code_blocks`: Include code blocks (`boolean`, default `true`)
|
||||
- `heading_line_length`: Number of characters for headings (`integer`, default
|
||||
`80`)
|
||||
- `headings`: Include headings (`boolean`, default `true`)
|
||||
- `line_length`: Number of characters (`integer`, default `80`)
|
||||
- `stern`: Stern length checking (`boolean`, default `false`)
|
||||
- `strict`: Strict length checking (`boolean`, default `false`)
|
||||
- `tables`: Include tables (`boolean`, default `true`)
|
||||
|
||||
This rule is triggered when there are lines that are longer than the
|
||||
configured `line_length` (default: 80 characters). To fix this, split the line
|
||||
up into multiple lines. To set a different maximum length for headings, use
|
||||
`heading_line_length`. To set a different maximum length for code blocks, use
|
||||
`code_block_line_length`
|
||||
|
||||
This rule has an exception when there is no whitespace beyond the configured
|
||||
line length. This allows you to include items such as long URLs without being
|
||||
forced to break them in the middle. To disable this exception, set the `strict`
|
||||
parameter to `true` and an issue will be reported when any line is too long. To
|
||||
warn for lines that are too long and could be fixed but allow long lines
|
||||
without spaces, set the `stern` parameter to `true`.
|
||||
|
||||
For example (assuming normal behavior):
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
IF THIS LINE IS THE MAXIMUM LENGTH
|
||||
This line is okay because there are-no-spaces-beyond-that-length
|
||||
This line is a violation because there are spaces beyond that length
|
||||
This-line-is-okay-because-there-are-no-spaces-anywhere-within
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
In `strict` mode, the last three lines above are all violations. In `stern`
|
||||
mode, the middle two lines above are both violations, but the last is okay.
|
||||
|
||||
You have the option to exclude this rule for code blocks, tables, or headings.
|
||||
To do so, set the `code_blocks`, `tables`, or `headings` parameter(s) to false.
|
||||
|
||||
Code blocks are included in this rule by default since it is often a
|
||||
requirement for document readability, and tentatively compatible with code
|
||||
rules. Still, some languages do not lend themselves to short lines.
|
||||
|
||||
Lines with link/image reference definitions and standalone lines (i.e., not part
|
||||
of a paragraph) with only a link/image (possibly using (strong) emphasis) are
|
||||
always exempted from this rule (even in `strict` mode) because there is often no
|
||||
way to split such lines without breaking the URL.
|
||||
|
||||
Rationale: Extremely long lines can be difficult to work with in some editors.

# `MD014` - Dollar signs used before commands without showing output
|
||||
|
||||
Tags: `code`
|
||||
|
||||
Aliases: `commands-show-output`
|
||||
|
||||
Fixable: Some violations can be fixed by tooling
|
||||
|
||||
This rule is triggered when there are code blocks showing shell commands to be
|
||||
typed, and *all* of the shell commands are preceded by dollar signs ($):
|
||||
|
||||
<!-- markdownlint-disable commands-show-output -->
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
$ ls
|
||||
$ cat foo
|
||||
$ less bar
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
<!-- markdownlint-restore -->
|
||||
|
||||
The dollar signs are unnecessary in this situation, and should not be
|
||||
included:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
ls
|
||||
cat foo
|
||||
less bar
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Showing output for commands preceded by dollar signs does not trigger this rule:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
$ ls
|
||||
foo bar
|
||||
$ cat foo
|
||||
Hello world
|
||||
$ cat bar
|
||||
baz
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Because some commands do not produce output, it is not a violation if *some*
|
||||
commands do not have output:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
$ mkdir test
|
||||
mkdir: created directory 'test'
|
||||
$ ls test
|
||||

Fixable: Some violations can be fixed by tooling

|
||||
## Heading 2
|

```
|
||||
|
||||
The `lines_above` and `lines_below` parameters can be used to specify a
|
||||
different number of blank lines (including `0`) above or below each heading.
|
||||
If the value `-1` is used for either parameter, any number of blank lines is
|
||||
allowed. To customize the number of lines above or below each heading level
|
||||
individually, specify a `number[]` where values correspond to heading levels
|
||||
1-6 (in order).
|
||||
|
||||
Notes: If `lines_above` or `lines_below` are configured to require more than one
|
||||
blank line, [MD012/no-multiple-blanks](md012.md) should also be customized. This
|
||||
rule checks for *at least* as many blank lines as specified; any extra blank
|
||||
lines are ignored.
|
||||
|
||||
Rationale: Aside from aesthetic reasons, some parsers, including `kramdown`,

as regular text.

Aliases: `no-duplicate-heading`
|

|

Parameters:
|

|

- `siblings_only`: Only check sibling headings (`boolean`, default `false`)
|
||||
|
||||
This rule is triggered if there are multiple headings in the document that have
|

the same text:
|
||||
|

```markdown
|
||||
# Some text
|
||||
|
||||
## Some text
|
||||
```
|
||||
|

To fix this, ensure that the content of each heading is different:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
# Some text
|
||||
|
||||
## Some more text
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
If the parameter `siblings_only` is set to `true`, duplication is allowed for
|

headings with different parents (as is common in changelogs):

# `MD025` - Multiple top-level headings in the same document

|

Tags: `headings`
|
||||
|
||||
Aliases: `single-h1`, `single-title`
|
||||
|
||||
Parameters:
|
||||
|
||||
- `front_matter_title`: RegExp for matching title in front matter (`string`,
|
||||
default `^\s*title\s*[:=]`)
|
||||
- `level`: Heading level (`integer`, default `1`)
|
||||
|
||||
This rule is triggered when a top-level heading is in use (the first line of
|
||||
the file is an h1 heading), and more than one h1 heading is in use in the
|
||||
document:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
# Top level heading
|
||||
|
||||
# Another top-level heading
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
To fix, structure your document so there is a single h1 heading that is
|
||||
the title for the document. Subsequent headings must be
|
||||
lower-level headings (h2, h3, etc.):
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
# Title
|
||||
|
||||
## Heading
|
||||
|
||||
## Another heading
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Note: The `level` parameter can be used to change the top-level (ex: to h2) in
|
||||
cases where an h1 is added externally.
|
||||
|
||||
If [YAML](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/YAML) front matter is present and
|
||||
contains a `title` property (commonly used with blog posts), this rule treats
|
||||
that as a top level heading and will report a violation for any subsequent
|
||||
top-level headings. To use a different property name in the front matter,
|
||||
specify the text of a regular expression via the `front_matter_title` parameter.
|
||||
To disable the use of front matter by this rule, specify `""` for
|
||||
`front_matter_title`.
|
||||
|
||||
Rationale: A top-level heading is an h1 on the first line of the file, and
|
||||
serves as the title for the document. If this convention is in use, then there
|
||||
can not be more than one title for the document, and the entire document should
|
||||
be contained within this heading.

Aliases: `no-trailing-punctuation`
|

Parameters:

- `punctuation`: Punctuation characters (`string`, default `.,;:!。,;:!`)
|
||||
|
||||
Fixable: Some violations can be fixed by tooling
|
||||
|

This rule is triggered on any heading that has one of the specified normal or
|

full-width punctuation characters as the last character in the line:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
# This is a heading.
|

```
|

|
||||
To fix this, remove the trailing punctuation:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
# This is a heading
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Note: The `punctuation` parameter can be used to specify what characters count
|
||||
as punctuation at the end of a heading. For example, you can change it to
|
||||
`".,;:"` to allow headings that end with an exclamation point. `?` is
|
||||
allowed by default because of how common it is in headings of FAQ-style
|
||||
documents. Setting the `punctuation` parameter to `""` allows all characters -
|
||||
and is equivalent to disabling the rule.
|
||||
|
||||
Note: The trailing semicolon of [HTML entity references][html-entity-references]
|
||||
like `©`, `©`, and `©` is ignored by this rule.

Aliases: `ol-prefix`
|
||||
|

Parameters:
|
||||
|
||||
- `style`: List style (`string`, default `one_or_ordered`, values `one` /
|
||||
`one_or_ordered` / `ordered` / `zero`)
|
||||
|
||||
Fixable: Some violations can be fixed by tooling
|
||||
|
||||
This rule is triggered for ordered lists that do not either start with '1.' or
|
||||
do not have a prefix that increases in numerical order (depending on the
|
||||
configured style). The less-common pattern of using '0.' as a first prefix or
|
||||
for all prefixes is also supported.
|
||||
|
||||
Example valid list if the style is configured as 'one':
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
1. Do this.
|
||||
1. Do that.
|

1. Done.

This rule supports 0-prefixing ordered list items for uniform indentation:

|
||||
Note: This rule will report violations for cases like the following where an

|

|

Aliases: `list-marker-space`
|

|

Parameters:
|
||||
|
||||
- `ol_multi`: Spaces for multi-line ordered list items (`integer`, default `1`)
|

- `ol_single`: Spaces for single-line ordered list items (`integer`, default

`1`)
|

- `ul_multi`: Spaces for multi-line unordered list items (`integer`, default

|

Fixable: Some violations can be fixed by tooling

This rule checks for the number of spaces between a list marker (e.g. '`-`',
|
||||
'`*`', '`+`' or '`1.`') and the text of the list item.
|
||||
|
||||
The number of spaces checked for depends on the document style in use, but the
|
||||
default is 1 space after any list marker:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
* Foo
|
||||
* Bar
|
||||
* Baz
|
||||
|
||||
1. Foo
|
||||
1. Bar
|
||||
1. Baz
|
||||
|
||||
1. Foo
|
||||
* Bar
|
||||
1. Baz
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
A document style may change the number of spaces after unordered list items
|
||||
and ordered list items independently, as well as based on whether the content
|
||||
of every item in the list consists of a single paragraph or multiple
|
||||
paragraphs (including sub-lists and code blocks).
|
||||
|
||||
For example, the style guide at
|
||||
<https://cirosantilli.com/markdown-style-guide#spaces-after-list-marker>
|
||||
specifies that 1 space after the list marker should be used if every item in
|
||||
the list fits within a single paragraph, but to use 2 or 3 spaces (for ordered
|
||||
and unordered lists respectively) if there are multiple paragraphs of content
|
||||
inside the list:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
* Foo
|
||||
* Bar
|
||||
* Baz
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
vs.
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
* Foo
|
||||
|
||||
Second paragraph
|
||||
|
||||
* Bar
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
or
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
1. Foo
|
||||
|
||||
Second paragraph
|
||||
|
||||
1. Bar
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
To fix this, ensure the correct number of spaces are used after the list marker
|
||||
for your selected document style.
|
||||
|
||||
Rationale: Violations of this rule can lead to improperly rendered content.

Note: The following scenario does not trigger this rule because it could be a

|

```markdown
|

|

```
|

|
||||
Note: The following syntax triggers this rule because the nested link could be
|

a shortcut link (which takes precedence):
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|

[text [shortcut] text](https://example.com)

```markdown

[link \[text\] link](https://example.com)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Rationale: Without angle brackets, a bare URL or email isn't converted into a
|
||||
link by some Markdown parsers.

# `MD035` - Horizontal rule style
|
||||
|
||||
Tags: `hr`
|
||||
|
||||
Aliases: `hr-style`
|
||||
|
||||
Parameters:
|
||||
|
||||
- `style`: Horizontal rule style (`string`, default `consistent`)
|
||||
|
||||
This rule is triggered when inconsistent styles of horizontal rules are used
|
||||
in the document:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
- - -
|
||||
|
||||
***
|
||||
|
||||
* * *
|
||||
|
||||
****
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
To fix this, use the same horizontal rule everywhere:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The configured style can ensure all horizontal rules use a specific string or it
|
||||
can ensure all horizontal rules match the first horizontal rule (`consistent`).
|
||||
|
||||
Rationale: Consistent formatting makes it easier to understand a document.

# `MD036` - Emphasis used instead of a heading
|
||||
|
||||
Tags: `emphasis`, `headings`
|
||||
|
||||
Aliases: `no-emphasis-as-heading`
|
||||
|
||||
Parameters:
|
||||
|
||||
- `punctuation`: Punctuation characters (`string`, default `.,;:!?。,;:!?`)
|
||||
|
||||
This check looks for instances where emphasized (i.e. bold or italic) text is
|
||||
used to separate sections, where a heading should be used instead:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
**My document**
|
||||
|
||||
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet...
|
||||
|
||||
_Another section_
|
||||
|
||||
Consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod.
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
To fix this, use Markdown headings instead of emphasized text to denote
|
||||
sections:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
# My document
|
||||
|
||||
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet...
|
||||
|
||||
## Another section
|
||||
|
||||
Consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod.
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Note: This rule looks for single-line paragraphs that consist entirely
|
||||
of emphasized text. It won't fire on emphasis used within regular text,
|
||||
multi-line emphasized paragraphs, or paragraphs ending in punctuation
|
||||
(normal or full-width). Similarly to rule MD026, you can configure what
|
||||
characters are recognized as punctuation.
|
||||
|
||||
Rationale: Using emphasis instead of a heading prevents tools from inferring
|
||||
the structure of a document. More information:

# `MD037` - Spaces inside emphasis markers

Tags: `emphasis`, `whitespace`

||||
|
||||
Aliases: `no-space-in-emphasis`
|
||||
|

Fixable: Some violations can be fixed by tooling
|
||||
|
||||
This rule is triggered when emphasis markers (bold, italic) are used, but they
|
||||
have spaces between the markers and the text:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
Here is some ** bold ** text.
|
||||
|

Here is some * italic * text.
|
||||
|
||||
Here is some more __ bold __ text.
|
||||
|
||||
Here is some more _ italic _ text.
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
To fix this, remove the spaces around the emphasis markers:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown

Here is some **bold** text.

Here is some *italic* text.

Here is some more __bold__ text.
|

Here is some more _italic_ text.
|

```
|
||||
|
||||
Rationale: Emphasis is only parsed as such when the asterisks/underscores
|
||||
aren't surrounded by spaces. This rule attempts to detect where
|
||||
they were surrounded by spaces, but it appears that emphasized text was
|

intended by the author.

Tags: `code`, `language`
|

Aliases: `fenced-code-language`
|

|

Parameters:
|
||||
|
||||
- `allowed_languages`: List of languages (`string[]`, default `[]`)
|
||||
- `language_only`: Require language only (`boolean`, default `false`)
|
||||
|
||||
This rule is triggered when fenced code blocks are used, but a language isn't
|
||||
specified:
|
||||
|
||||
````markdown
|
||||
```
|
||||
#!/bin/bash
|
||||
echo Hello world
|
||||
```
|
||||
````
|
||||
|

To fix this, add a language specifier to the code block:
|

|

````markdown
|
||||
```bash
|

#!/bin/bash
|

|

|

````markdown
|
||||
```text
|
||||
Plain text in a code block
|
||||
```
|
||||
````
|
||||
|
||||
You can configure the `allowed_languages` parameter to specify a list of
|
||||
languages code blocks could use. Languages are case sensitive. The default value
|
||||
is `[]` which means any language specifier is valid.
|
||||
|
||||
You can prevent extra data from being present in the info string of fenced code
|
||||
blocks. To do so, set the `language_only` parameter to `true`.
|
||||
|
||||
<!-- markdownlint-disable-next-line no-space-in-code -->
|
||||
Info strings with leading/trailing whitespace (ex: `js `) or other content (ex:
|

`ruby startline=3`) will trigger this rule.
|

correct syntax highlighting for code. More information:

# `MD041` - First line in a file should be a top-level heading
|
||||
|
||||
Tags: `headings`
|
||||
|
||||
Aliases: `first-line-h1`, `first-line-heading`
|
||||
|
||||
Parameters:
|
||||
|
||||
- `allow_preamble`: Allow content before first heading (`boolean`, default
|
||||
`false`)
|
||||
- `front_matter_title`: RegExp for matching title in front matter (`string`,
|
||||
default `^\s*title\s*[:=]`)
|
||||
- `level`: Heading level (`integer`, default `1`)
|
||||
|
||||
This rule is intended to ensure documents have a title and is triggered when
|
||||
the first line in a document is not a top-level ([HTML][HTML] `h1`) heading:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
This is a document without a heading
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
To fix this, add a top-level heading to the beginning of the document:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
# Document Heading
|
||||
|
||||
This is a document with a top-level heading
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Because it is common for projects on GitHub to use an image for the heading of
|
||||
`README.md` and that pattern is not well-supported by Markdown, HTML headings
|
||||
are also permitted by this rule. For example:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
<h1 align="center"><img src="https://placekitten.com/300/150"/></h1>
|
||||
|
||||
This is a document with a top-level HTML heading
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
In some cases, a document's title heading may be preceded by text like a table
|
||||
of contents. This is not ideal for accessibility, but can be allowed by setting
|
||||
the `allow_preamble` parameter to `true`.
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
This is a document with preamble text
|
||||
|
||||
# Document Heading
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
If [YAML][YAML] front matter is present and contains a `title` property
|
||||
(commonly used with blog posts), this rule will not report a violation. To use a
|
||||
different property name in the front matter, specify the text of a [regular
|
||||
expression][RegExp] via the `front_matter_title` parameter. To disable the use
|
||||
of front matter by this rule, specify `""` for `front_matter_title`.
|
||||
|
||||
The `level` parameter can be used to change the top-level heading (ex: to `h2`)
|
||||
in cases where an `h1` is added externally.
|
||||
|
||||
Rationale: The top-level heading often acts as the title of a document. More

# `MD043` - Required heading structure

Aliases: `required-headings`
|
||||
|
||||
Parameters:
|

|
||||
- `headings`: List of headings (`string[]`, default `[]`)
|
||||
- `match_case`: Match case of headings (`boolean`, default `false`)
|
||||
|
||||
This rule is triggered when the headings in a file do not match the array of
|
||||
headings passed to the rule. It can be used to enforce a standard heading
|
||||
structure for a set of files.
|
||||
|
||||
To require exactly the following structure:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
# Heading
|
||||
## Item
|
||||
### Detail
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Set the `headings` parameter to:
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
[
|
||||
"# Heading",
|
||||
"## Item",
|
||||
"### Detail"
|
||||
]
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
To allow optional headings as with the following structure:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
# Heading
|
||||
## Item
|
||||
### Detail (optional)
|
||||
## Foot
|
||||
### Notes (optional)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Use the special value `"*"` meaning "zero or more unspecified headings" or the
|
||||
special value `"+"` meaning "one or more unspecified headings" and set the
|
||||
`headings` parameter to:
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
[
|
||||
"# Heading",
|
||||
"## Item",
|
||||
"*",
|
||||
"## Foot",
|
||||
"*"
|
||||
]
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
To allow a single required heading to vary as with a project name:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
# Project Name
|
||||
## Description
|
||||
## Examples
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Use the special value `"?"` meaning "exactly one unspecified heading":
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
[
|
||||
"?",
|
||||
"## Description",
|
||||
"## Examples"
|
||||
]
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
When an error is detected, this rule outputs the line number of the first
|
||||
problematic heading (otherwise, it outputs the last line number of the file).
|
||||
|
||||
Note that while the `headings` parameter uses the "## Text" ATX heading style
|
||||
for simplicity, a file may use any supported heading style.
|
||||
|
||||
By default, the case of headings in the document is not required to match that
|
||||
of `headings`. To require that case match exactly, set the `match_case`
|
||||
parameter to `true`.
|
||||
|
||||
Rationale: Projects may wish to enforce a consistent document structure across
|
||||
a set of similar content.

- `html_elements`: Include HTML elements (`boolean`, default `true`)
|

- `names`: List of proper names (`string[]`, default `[]`)
|
||||
|
||||
Fixable: Some violations can be fixed by tooling
|
||||
|
||||
This rule is triggered when any of the strings in the `names` array do not have
|
||||
the specified capitalization. It can be used to enforce a standard letter case
|
||||
for the names of projects and products.
|
||||
|
||||
For example, the language "JavaScript" is usually written with both the 'J' and
|
||||
'S' capitalized - though sometimes the 's' or 'j' appear in lower-case. To
|
||||
enforce the proper capitalization, specify the desired letter case in the
|
||||
`names` array:
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
[
|
||||
"JavaScript"
|
||||
]
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Sometimes a proper name is capitalized differently in certain contexts. In such
|
||||
cases, add both forms to the `names` array:
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
[
|
||||
"GitHub",
|
||||
"github.com"
|
||||
]
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Set the `code_blocks` parameter to `false` to disable this rule for code blocks
|
||||
and spans. Set the `html_elements` parameter to `false` to disable this rule
|
||||
for HTML elements and attributes (such as when using a proper name as part of
|
||||
a path for `a`/`href` or `img`/`src`).

Aliases: `no-alt-text`
|

This rule reports a violation when an image is missing alternate text (alt text)
|
||||
information.
|
||||
|
||||
Alternate text is commonly specified inline as:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||

|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Or with reference syntax as:
|

```markdown

![Alternate text][ref]
|
||||
|
||||
...
|
||||
|

|
||||
Or with HTML as:
|
||||
|
||||
```html
|
||||
<img src="image.jpg" alt="Alternate text" />
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Note: If the [HTML `aria-hidden` attribute][aria-hidden] is used to hide the
|
||||
image from assistive technology, this rule does not report a violation:
|
||||
|
||||
```html
|
||||
<img src="image.jpg" aria-hidden="true" />
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Guidance for writing alternate text is available from the [W3C][w3c],
|
||||
[Wikipedia][wikipedia], and [other locations][phase2technology].
|
||||
|
||||
Rationale: Alternate text is important for accessibility and describes the

# Heading
|
||||
|
||||
This file ends with a newline.
|

# `MD051` - Link fragments should be valid
|
||||
|
||||
Tags: `links`
|
||||
|
||||
Aliases: `link-fragments`
|
||||
|
||||
Parameters:
|
||||
|
||||
- `ignore_case`: Ignore case of fragments (`boolean`, default `false`)
|
||||
- `ignored_pattern`: Pattern for ignoring additional fragments (`string`,
|
||||
default ``)
|
||||
|
||||
Fixable: Some violations can be fixed by tooling
|
||||
|
||||
This rule is triggered when a link fragment does not match any of the fragments
|
||||
that are automatically generated for headings in a document:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
# Heading Name
|
||||
|
||||
[Link](#fragment)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
To fix this issue, change the link fragment to reference an existing heading's
|
||||
generated name (see below):
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
# Heading Name
|
||||
|
||||
[Link](#heading-name)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
For consistency, this rule requires fragments to exactly match the [GitHub
|
||||
heading algorithm][github-heading-algorithm] which converts letters to
|
||||
lowercase. Therefore, the following example is reported as a violation:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
# Heading Name
|
||||
|
||||
[Link](#Heading-Name)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
To ignore case when comparing fragments with heading names, the `ignore_case`
|
||||
parameter can be set to `true`. In this configuration, the previous example is
|
||||
not reported as a violation.
|
||||
|
||||
Alternatively, some platforms allow the syntax `{#named-anchor}` to be used
|
||||
within a heading to provide a specific name (consisting of only lower-case
|
||||
letters, numbers, `-`, and `_`):
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
# Heading Name {#custom-name}
|
||||
|
||||
[Link](#custom-name)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Alternatively, any HTML tag with an `id` attribute or an `a` tag with a `name`
|
||||
attribute can be used to define a fragment:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
<a id="bookmark"></a>
|
||||
|
||||
[Link](#bookmark)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
An `a` tag can be useful in scenarios where a heading is not appropriate or for
|
||||
control over the text of the fragment identifier.
|
||||
|
||||
[HTML links to `#top` scroll to the top of a document][html-top-fragment]. This
|
||||
rule allows that syntax (using lower-case for consistency):
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
[Link](#top)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This rule also recognizes the custom fragment syntax used by GitHub to highlight
|
||||
[specific content in a document][github-linking-to-content].
|
||||
|
||||
For example, this link to line 20:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
[Link](#L20)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
And this link to content starting within line 19 running into line 21:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
[Link](#L19C5-L21C11)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Some Markdown generators dynamically create and insert headings when building
|
||||
documents, for example by combining a fixed prefix like `figure-` and an
|
||||
incrementing numeric counter. To ignore such generated fragments, set the
|
||||
`ignored_pattern` [regular expression][RegEx] parameter to a pattern that
|
||||
matches (e.g., `^figure-`).
|
||||
|
||||
Rationale: [GitHub section links][github-section-links] are created
|
||||
automatically for every heading when Markdown content is displayed on GitHub.
|
||||
This makes it easy to link directly to different sections within a document.
|
||||
However, section links change if headings are renamed or removed. This rule
|
||||
helps identify broken section links within a document.
|
||||
|
||||
Note: Section links are **not** part of the CommonMark specification; this rule
|
||||
enforces the [GitHub heading algorithm][github-heading-algorithm]:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Convert text to lowercase
|
||||
2. Remove punctuation characters
|
||||
3. Convert spaces to dashes
|
||||
4. Append an incrementing integer (as needed for uniqueness)

# `MD052` - Reference links and images should use a label that is defined
|
||||
|
||||
Tags: `images`, `links`
|
||||
|
||||
Aliases: `reference-links-images`
|
||||
|
||||
Parameters:
|
||||
|
||||
- `ignored_labels`: Ignored link labels (`string[]`, default `["x"]`)
|
||||
- `shortcut_syntax`: Include shortcut syntax (`boolean`, default `false`)
|
||||
|
||||
Links and images in Markdown can provide the link destination or image source
|
||||
at the time of use or can define it elsewhere and use a label for reference.
|
||||
The reference format is convenient for keeping paragraph text clutter-free
|
||||
and makes it easy to reuse the same URL in multiple places.
|
||||
|
||||
There are three kinds of reference links and images:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
Full: [text][label]
|
||||
Collapsed: [label][]
|
||||
Shortcut: [label]
|
||||
|
||||
Full: ![text][image]
|
||||
Collapsed: ![image][]
|
||||
Shortcut: ![image]
|
||||
|
||||
[label]: https://example.com/label
|
||||
[image]: https://example.com/image
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
A link or image renders correctly when the corresponding label is defined, but
|
||||
displays as text with brackets when the label is not present. By default, this
|
||||
rule warns of undefined labels for "full" and "collapsed" reference syntax but
|
||||
not for "shortcut" syntax because it is ambiguous.
|
||||
|
||||
The text `[example]` could be a shortcut link or the text "example" in brackets,
|
||||
so "shortcut" syntax is ignored by default. To include "shortcut" syntax, set
|
||||
the `include_shortcut` parameter to `true`. Note that doing so produces warnings
|
||||
for *all* text in the document that *could* be a shortcut. If bracketed text is
|
||||
intentional, brackets can be escaped with the `\` character: `\[example\]`.
|
||||
|
||||
If there are link labels that are deliberately unreferenced, they can be ignored
|
||||
by setting the `ignored_labels` parameter to the list of strings to ignore. The
|
||||
default value of this parameter ignores the checkbox syntax used by
|

# `MD053` - Link and image reference definitions should be needed

Aliases: `link-image-reference-definitions`
|

Parameters:
|

- `ignored_definitions`: Ignored definitions (`string[]`, default `["//"]`)

|

Fixable: Some violations can be fixed by tooling
|
||||
|
||||
Links and images in Markdown can provide the link destination or image source
|
||||
at the time of use or can use a label to reference a definition elsewhere in
|
||||
the document. The latter reference format is convenient for keeping paragraph
|
||||
text clutter-free and makes it easy to reuse the same URL in multiple places.
|
||||
|
||||
Because link and image reference definitions are located separately from
|
||||
where they are used, there are two scenarios where a definition can be
|
||||
unnecessary:
|
||||
|
||||
1. If a label is not referenced by any link or image in a document, that
|
||||
definition is unused and can be deleted.
|
||||
2. If a label is defined multiple times in a document, the first definition is
|
||||
used and the others can be deleted.
|
||||
|
||||
This rule considers a reference definition to be used if any link or image
|
||||
reference has the corresponding label. The "full", "collapsed", and "shortcut"
|
||||
formats are all supported.
|
||||
|
||||
If there are reference definitions that are deliberately unreferenced, they can
|
||||
be ignored by setting the `ignored_definitions` parameter to the list of strings
|
||||
to ignore. The default value of this parameter ignores the following convention
|
||||
for adding non-HTML comments to Markdown:

|
||||
Links and images in Markdown can provide the link destination or image source at
|
||||
the time of use or can use a label to reference a definition elsewhere in the
|
||||
document. The three reference formats are convenient for keeping paragraph text
|
||||
clutter-free and make it easy to reuse the same URL in multiple places.
|
||||
|
||||
By default, this rule allows all link/image styles.
|
||||
|
||||
Setting the `autolink` parameter to `false` disables autolinks:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
<https://example.com>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Setting the `inline` parameter to `false` disables inline links and images:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
[link](https://example.com)
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Setting the `full` parameter to `false` disables full reference links and
|
||||
images:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
[link][url]
|
||||
|
||||
![image][url]
|
||||
|
||||
[url]: https://example.com
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Setting the `collapsed` parameter to `false` disables collapsed reference links
|
||||
and images:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
[url][]
|
||||
|
||||
![url][]
|
||||
|
||||
[url]: https://example.com
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Setting the `shortcut` parameter to `false` disables shortcut reference links
|
||||
and images:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
[url]
|
||||
|
||||
![url]
|
||||
|
||||
[url]: https://example.com
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
To fix violations of this rule, change the link or image to use an allowed
|
||||
style. This rule can automatically fix violations when a link or image can be
|
||||
converted to the `inline` style (preferred) or a link can be converted to the
|
||||
`autolink` style (which does not support images and must be an absolute URL).
|
||||
This rule does *not* fix scenarios that require converting a link or image to
|
||||
the `full`, `collapsed`, or `shortcut` reference styles because that involves
|
||||
naming the reference and determining where to insert it in the document.
|
||||
|
||||
Setting the `url_inline` parameter to `false` prevents the use of inline links
|
||||
with the same absolute URL text/destination and no title because such links can
|
||||
be converted to autolinks:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
[https://example.com](https://example.com)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
To fix `url_inline` violations, use the simpler autolink syntax instead:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
<https://example.com>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Rationale: Consistent formatting makes it easier to understand a document.
|
||||
Autolinks are concise, but appear as URLs which can be long and confusing.
|
||||
Inline links and images can include descriptive text, but take up more space in
|
||||
Markdown form. Reference links and images can be easier to read and manipulate
|
||||
in Markdown form, but require a separate link reference definition.

# `MD055` - Table pipe style
|
||||
|

Tags: `table`
|
||||
|
||||
Aliases: `table-pipe-style`
|
||||
|
||||
Parameters:
|
||||
|
||||
- `style`: Table pipe style (`string`, default `consistent`, values
|
||||
`consistent` / `leading_and_trailing` / `leading_only` /
|
||||
`no_leading_or_trailing` / `trailing_only`)
|
||||
|
||||
This rule is triggered when a [GitHub Flavored Markdown table][gfm-table-055]
|
||||
is inconsistent about its use of leading and trailing pipe characters (`|`).
|
||||
|
||||
By default (`consistent` style), the header row of the first table in a document
|
||||
is used to determine the style that is enforced for every table in the document.
|
||||
A specific style can be used instead (`leading_and_trailing`, `leading_only`,
|
||||
`no_leading_or_trailing`, `trailing_only`).
|
||||
|
||||
This table's header row has leading and trailing pipes, but its delimiter row is
|
||||
missing the trailing pipe and its first row of cells is missing the leading
|
||||
pipe:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
| Header | Header |
|
||||
| ------ | ------
|
||||
Cell | Cell |
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
To fix these issues, make sure there is a pipe character at the beginning and
|
||||
end of every row:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
| Header | Header |
|
||||
| ------ | ------ |
|
||||
| Cell | Cell |
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Note that text immediately following a table (i.e., not separated by an empty
|
||||
line) is treated as part of the table (per the specification) and may also
|
||||
trigger this rule:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
| Header | Header |
|
||||
| ------ | ------ |
|
||||
| Cell | Cell |
|
||||
This text is part of the table
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Rationale: Some parsers have difficulty with tables that are missing their
|
||||
leading or trailing pipe characters. The use of leading/trailing pipes can also

||||
help provide visual clarity.

# `MD056` - Table column count
|
||||
|
||||
Tags: `table`
|
||||
|
||||
Aliases: `table-column-count`
|
||||
|
||||
This rule is triggered when a [GitHub Flavored Markdown table][gfm-table-056]
|
||||
does not have the same number of cells in every row.
|
||||
|
||||
This table's second data row has too few cells and its third data row has too
|
||||
many cells:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
| Header | Header |
|
||||
| ------ | ------ |
|
||||
| Cell | Cell |
|
||||
| Cell |
|
||||
| Cell | Cell | Cell |
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
To fix these issues, ensure every row has the same number of cells:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
| Header | Header |
|
||||
| ------ | ------ |
|
||||
| Cell | Cell |
|
||||
| Cell | Cell |
|
||||
| Cell | Cell |
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Note that a table's header row and its delimiter row must have the same number
|
||||
of cells or it will not be recognized as a table (per specification).
|
||||
|
||||
Rationale: Extra cells in a row are usually not shown, so their data is lost.
|
||||
Missing cells in a row create holes in the table and suggest an omission.

# `MD058` - Tables should be surrounded by blank lines
|
||||
|
||||
Tags: `table`
|
||||
|
||||
Aliases: `blanks-around-tables`
|
||||
|
||||
Fixable: Some violations can be fixed by tooling
|
||||
|
||||
This rule is triggered when tables are either not preceded or not followed by a
|
||||
blank line:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
Some text
|
||||
| Header | Header |
|
||||
| ------ | ------ |
|
||||
| Cell | Cell |
|
||||
> Blockquote
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
To fix violations of this rule, ensure that all tables have a blank line both
|
||||
before and after (except when the table is at the very beginning or end of the
|
||||
document):
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
Some text
|
||||
|
||||
| Header | Header |
|
||||
| ------ | ------ |
|
||||
| Cell | Cell |
|
||||
|
||||
> Blockquote
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Note that text immediately following a table (i.e., not separated by an empty
|
||||
line) is treated as part of the table (per the specification) and will not
|
||||
trigger this rule:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
| Header | Header |
|
||||
| ------ | ------ |
|
||||
| Cell | Cell |
|
||||
This text is part of the table and the next line is blank
|
||||
|
||||
Some text
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Rationale: In addition to aesthetic reasons, some parsers will incorrectly parse
|
||||
tables that don't have blank lines before and after them.

# `MD059` - Link text should be descriptive
|
||||
|
||||
Tags: `accessibility`, `links`
|
||||
|
||||
Aliases: `descriptive-link-text`
|
||||
|
||||
Parameters:
|
||||
|
||||
- `prohibited_texts`: Prohibited link texts (`string[]`, default `["click
|
||||
here","here","link","more"]`)
|
||||
|
||||
This rule is triggered when a link has generic text like `[click here](...)` or
|
||||
`[link](...)`.
|
||||
|
||||
Link text should be descriptive and communicate the purpose of the link (e.g.,
|
||||
`[Download the budget document](...)` or `[CommonMark Specification](...)`).
|
||||
This is especially important for screen readers which sometimes present links
|
||||
without context.
|
||||
|
||||
By default, this rule prohibits a small number of common English words/phrases.
|
||||
To customize that list of words/phrases, set the `prohibited_texts` parameter to
|
||||
an `Array` of `string`s.
|
||||
|
||||
Note: For languages other than English, use the `prohibited_texts` parameter to
|
||||
customize the list for that language. It is *not* a goal for this rule to have
|
||||
translations for every language.
|
||||
|
||||
Note: This rule checks Markdown links; HTML links are ignored.

# `MD060` - Table column style
|
||||
|
||||
Tags: `table`
|
||||
|
||||
Aliases: `table-column-style`
|
||||
|
||||
Parameters:
|
||||
|
||||
- `aligned_delimiter`: Aligned delimiter columns (`boolean`, default `false`)
|
||||
- `style`: Table column style (`string`, default `any`, values `aligned` /
|
||||
`any` / `compact` / `tight`)
|
||||
|
||||
This rule is triggered when the column separator pipe characters (`|`) of a
|
||||
[GitHub Flavored Markdown table][gfm-table-060] are used inconsistently.
|
||||
|
||||
This rule recognizes three table column styles based on popular use.
|
||||
|
||||
Style `aligned` ensures pipe characters are vertically aligned:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
| Character | Meaning |
|
||||
| --------- | ------- |
|
||||
| Y | Yes |
|
||||
| N | No |
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The `aligned` style ignores cell content, so the following is also valid:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
| Character | Meaning |
|
||||
|-----------|---------|
|
||||
| Y | Yes |
|
||||
| N | No |
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Style `compact` avoids extra padding with a single space around cell content:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
| Character | Meaning |
|
||||
| --- | --- |
|
||||
| Y | Yes |
|
||||
| N | No |
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Style `tight` uses no padding at all for cell content:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
|Character|Meaning|
|
||||
|---|---|
|
||||
|Y|Yes|
|
||||
|N|No|
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
When this rule's `style` parameter is set to `aligned`, `compact`, or `tight`,
|
||||
every table must match the corresponding pattern and any violations will be
|
||||
reported. By default, or when the `any` style is used, each table is analyzed to
|
||||
see if it satisfies any supported style. If so, no violations are reported. If
|
||||
not, violations are be reported for whichever style would produce the *fewest*
|
||||
issues (i.e., whichever style is the closest match).
|
||||
|
||||
Setting the `aligned_delimiter` parameter to `true` requires pipe characters in
|
||||
the delimiter row to align with those in the header row. This can be used with
|
||||
`compact` and `tight` tables to make the header text more obvious. (It's already
|
||||
required for tables with style `aligned`.)
|
||||
|
||||
Style `compact` with `aligned_delimiter`:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
| Character | Meaning |
|
||||
| --------- | ------- |
|
||||
| Y | Yes |
|
||||
| N | No |
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Style `tight` with `aligned_delimiter`:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
|Character|Meaning|
|
||||
|---------|-------|
|
||||
|Y|Yes|
|
||||
|N|No|
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Note**: This rule does not require leading/trailing pipe characters, so this
|
||||
is also a valid table for style `compact`:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
Character | Meaning
|
||||
--- | ---
|
||||
Y | Yes
|
||||
N | No
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Note**: Pipe alignment for the `aligned` style is based on visual appearance
|
||||
and not character count. Because editors typically render [emoji][emoji] and
|
||||
[CJK characters][cjk-characters] at *twice* the width of
|
||||
[Latin characters][latin-script], this rule takes that into account for tables
|
||||
using the `aligned` style. The following table is correctly formatted and will
|
||||
appear aligned in most editors and monospaced fonts:
|
||||
|
||||
<!-- markdownlint-capture -->
|
||||
<!-- markdownlint-disable extended-ascii -->
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
| Response | Emoji |
|
||||
| -------- | ----- |
|
||||
| Yes | ✅ |
|
||||
| No | ❎ |
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
<!-- markdownlint-restore -->
|
||||
|
||||
Rationale: Consistent formatting makes it easier to understand a document.
