Apply lint rules via shortcut

[Kyslik]

Is there a way how to apply lint rules via shortcut?

[DavidAnson]

When installed, vscode-markdownlint runs its rules after every change to the document. What would the shortcut do differently? Can you give more detail, please?

[Kyslik]

What I mean is actually auto-format it.

So lets say I have a document readme.md like

## About
Some information about...

So linter yells at me with rule 2, 22 and 41 I want to hit a shortcut to automatically apply suggestions, without manually amending the file (adding white-space, removing one #...), let the editor do that for me.

Is that possible?

In intelliJ IDEs its alt+cmd+L

Got it! In some cases, I think it should be possible to safely modify the file to fix issues. I'll think more about this. Thanks!

I think it should be separate package since this is "linter" and should only lint. TSlint does auto-formatting as well (see this).

I have some free time, maybe I will check options out. do you have any source (tutorials, guides) on how to create ext for VSCode? https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/extensions/example-hello-world

I was looking for the same feature, eslint has "eslint.autoFixOnSave": true, and it's so sweet, please consider this.

Thank you :) I will check it out.

@DavidAnson Following up here, from my experiences with Atom, tidy markdown seems to format code based on the same rules that mdlint follows, so in theory, this extension should work

@Kyslik , For you to note, "Auto" mean doesn't require a trigger(which is the "shortcut" in your case).
