Remark-lint-heading-word-length NPM

remark-lint-heading-word-length

This is a remark-lint rule to warn when headings have too many or too few words. Headings are split into words by the regular expression \s.

This package is a spiritual fork of the archived remark-lint-heading-length package, which has a couple of flaws.

Install

Due to the nature of the unified ecosystem, this package is ESM only and cannot be require'd.

npm install --save-dev remark-lint-heading-word-length

import { reporter } from 'vfile-reporter';
import { remark } from 'remark';
import remarkLint from 'remark-lint';
import lintHeadingWordLength from 'remark-lint-heading-word-length';

const file = await remark()
  .use(remarkLint)
  .use(lintHeadingWordLength)
  .process(await read('example.md'));

Options

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

Additionally, this plugin recognizes the following options:

`minimumWords`

Valid values: false | number\ Default: 1

The minimum number of words required in a heading.

Set to false to prevent minimum word length checks.

`maximumWords`

Valid values: false | number\ Default: 10

The maximum number of words allowed in a heading.

Set to false (or Infinity) to prevent maximum word length checks.

Examples

`ok.md`

In

# `options.optionA`

# This right here is essentially a ten (10) word heading

Out

No messages.

`not-ok.md`

In

# This right here is a ten + one (11) word heading

#

Out

1:1-1:51: Heading must have at most 10 words (current length: 11)
3:1-3:2: Heading must have at least 1 word (current length: 0)
