Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

NPM version Monthly Downloads

remark-lint-list-item-style

This is a remark-lint rule to warn when list items violate a given capitalization or punctuation style. Also comes with full unicode support.

This rule picks up where the abandoned remark-lint-list-item-punctuation package left off.


Install

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

To install:

npm install --save-dev remark-lint-list-item-style

Usage

For maximum flexibility, there are several ways this plugin can be invoked.

Via API

import { read } from 'to-vfile';
import { reporter } from 'vfile-reporter';
import { remark } from 'remark';
import remarkLint from 'remark-lint';
import remarkLintListItemStyle from 'remark-lint-list-item-style';

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

console.log(reporter(file));

Via remark-cli

remark --use remark-lint --use lint-list-item-style README.md

Via unified configuration

In package.json:

  /* … */
  "remarkConfig": {
    "plugins": [
      "remark-lint-list-item-style"
      /* … */
    ]
  },
  /* … */

In .remarkrc.js:

module.exports = {
  plugins: [
    // …
    'lint-list-item-style'
  ]
};

In .remarkrc.mjs:

import remarkLintListItemStyle from 'remark-lint-list-item-style';

export default {
  plugins: [
    // …
    remarkLintListItemStyle
  ]
};

API

Options

All "RegExp" values below are assumed to be strings, and will be transformed into regular expression objects via the following expression: RegExp(value, 'gu').

This plugin recognizes the following options:

checkPunctuation

Valid values: false | RegExp[]
Default: ["(\\.|\\?|;|,|!|\\p{Emoji}\uFE0F|\\p{Emoji_Presentation})"]

Checks that the final character of each stringified list item matches at least one of the given values, including emojis.

To match all unicode punctuation characters, you could provide ["\p{P}"] instead of the default, but this will match characters like ) and ].

Alternatively, to prevent punctuation, you could provide ["\P{P}"].

Lines that consist solely of an image are ignored.

checkFirstWord

Valid values: false | "capitalize" | "lowercase"
Default: "capitalize"

Checks that the first word of each stringified list item paragraph begins with a non-lowercase character ("capitalize") or a non-uppercase character ("lowercase").

List items beginning with a link, image, checkbox, or inline code block are ignored.

ignoredFirstWords

Valid values: RegExp[]
Default: []

Words that would normally be checked with respect to the checkFirstWord option will be ignored if they match at least one of the given values. Use this option to prevent false positives (e.g. "iOS", "eBay").

List items beginning with a link, image, checkbox, or inline code block are already ignored and do not need to be specified here.

checkListSpread

Valid values: "first" | "final" | "first-and-final" | "each"
Default: "each"

Determines how checkPunctuation is applied to list items with spread children. Has no effect when checkPunctuation is false.

Published Package Details

This is an ESM-only package built by Babel for use in Node.js versions that are not end-of-life. For TypeScript users, this package supports both "Node10" and "Node16" module resolution strategies.

That means ESM source will load this package via import { ... } from ... or await import(...) and CJS source will load this package via dynamic import(). This has several benefits, the foremost being: less code shipped/smaller package size, avoiding dual package hazard entirely, distributables are not packed/bundled/uglified, and a drastically less complex build process.

The glaring downside, which may or may not be relevant, is that CJS consumers cannot require() this package and can only use import() in an asynchronous context. This means, in effect, CJS consumers may not be able to use this package at all.

Each entry point (i.e. ENTRY) in package.json's exports[ENTRY] object includes one or more export conditions. These entries may or may not include: an exports[ENTRY].types condition pointing to a type declaration file for TypeScript and IDEs, a exports[ENTRY].module condition pointing to (usually ESM) source for Webpack/Rollup, a exports[ENTRY].node and/or exports[ENTRY].default condition pointing to (usually CJS2) source for Node.js require/import and for browsers and other environments, and other conditions not enumerated here. Check the package.json file to see which export conditions are supported.

Note that, regardless of the { "type": "..." } specified in package.json, any JavaScript files written in ESM syntax (including distributables) will always have the .mjs extension. Note also that package.json may include the sideEffects key, which is almost always false for optimal tree shaking where appropriate.
