What is this?

This package checks the “indent” of block quotes: the > (greater than)
marker and the spaces before content.

When should I use this?

You can use this rule to check markdown code style.

Presets

This plugin is included in the following presets:

| Preset | Options |
| - | - |
| remark-preset-lint-consistent | 'consistent' |
| remark-preset-lint-markdown-style-guide | 2 |

Install

This package is [ESM only][github-gist-esm].
In Node.js (version 16+),
install with [npm][npm-install]:

``sh
npm install remark-lint-blockquote-indentation
`

In Deno with [esm.sh][esm-sh]:

`js
import remarkLintBlockquoteIndentation from 'https://esm.sh/remark-lint-blockquote-indentation@4'
`

In browsers with [esm.sh][esm-sh]:

`html

`

Use

On the API:

`js
import remarkLint from 'remark-lint'
import remarkLintBlockquoteIndentation from 'remark-lint-blockquote-indentation'
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(remarkLintBlockquoteIndentation)
.use(remarkStringify)
.process(file)

console.error(reporter(file))
`

On the CLI:

`sh
remark --frail --use remark-lint --use remark-lint-blockquote-indentation .
`

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

`diff
…
"remarkConfig": {
"plugins": [
…
"remark-lint",
+ "remark-lint-blockquote-indentation",
…
]
}
…
`

It exports the [TypeScript][typescript] type
[Options][api-options].
The default export is
[remarkLintBlockquoteIndentation][api-remark-lint-blockquote-indentation].

$3

Warn when block quotes are indented too much or too little.

###### Parameters

* options ([Options][api-options], default: 'consistent')
— either a preferred indent or whether to detect the first style
and warn for further differences

###### Returns

Transform ([Transformer from unified][github-unified-transformer]).

$3

Configuration (TypeScript type).

###### Type

`ts
type Options = number | 'consistent'
`

Recommendation

CommonMark specifies that when block quotes are used the > markers can be
followed by an optional space.
No space at all arguably looks rather ugly:

`markdown
>Mars and
>Venus.
`

There is no specific handling of more that one space, so if 5 spaces were
used after >, then indented code kicks in:

`markdown
> neptune()
`

Due to this, it’s recommended to configure this rule with 2.

Examples

##### ok-2.md

When configured with 2.

###### In

`markdown
> Mercury.

Venus.

> Earth.
`

###### Out

No messages.

##### ok-4.md

When configured with 4.

###### In

`markdown
> Mercury.

Venus.

> Earth.
`

###### Out

No messages.

##### ok-tab.md

###### In

`markdown
>␉Mercury.
`

###### Out

No messages.

##### not-ok.md

###### In

`markdown
> Mercury.

Venus.

> Earth.

Mars.

> Jupiter
`

###### Out

`text
5:5: Unexpected 4 spaces between block quote marker and content, expected 3 spaces, remove 1 space
9:3: Unexpected 2 spaces between block quote marker and content, expected 3 spaces, add 1 space
`

##### not-ok-options.md

When configured with '🌍'.

###### Out

`text
1:1: Unexpected value 🌍 for options, expected number or 'consistent'
`

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-blockquote-indentation@4,
compatible with Node.js 16.
