Markdown Header Reformatting Script

This script allows you to reformat the header levels in a Markdown file. It provides the following operations:

  1. Increase Header Levels

    • Description: Increases the header levels in the Markdown file by a specified number of levels.
    • Usage: python main.py -f <file> i [n]
    • Arguments:
      • -f or --file: Path to the Markdown file. If not provided, the default file path from config.py will be used.
      • i: Indicates the increase operation.
      • n: (Optional) Number of levels to increase the headers by (e.g., 1, 2, 3). Default is 1.
    • Example: python main.py -f README.md i 2
  2. Decrease Header Levels

    • Description: Decreases the header levels in the Markdown file by a specified number of levels.
    • Usage: python main.py -f <file> d [n]
    • Arguments:
      • -f or --file: Path to the Markdown file. If not provided, the default file path from config.py will be used.
      • d: Indicates the decrease operation.
      • n: (Optional) Number of levels to decrease the headers by (e.g., 1, 2, 3). Default is 1.
    • Example: python main.py -f README.md d 1
  3. Auto Decrease Header Levels

    • Description: Automatically decreases the header levels in the Markdown file to the lowest possible level based on the nesting structure.
    • Usage: python main.py -f <file> ad
    • Arguments:
      • -f or --file: Path to the Markdown file. If not provided, the default file path from config.py will be used.
      • ad: Indicates the auto decrease operation.
    • Example: python main.py -f README.md ad

Additional Options

  • Start Line (-s or --start): Specifies the start line number for formatting. Only lines starting from this line number will be reformatted.
  • End Line (-e or --end): Specifies the end line number for formatting. Only lines up to this line number will be reformatted.

Example: python main.py -f README.md -s 10 -e 20 ad

This command will apply the 'auto_decrease' operation to the lines between line numbers 10 and 20 (inclusive) in the specified file.

Configuration

The script uses a config.py file to store the default file path. If the -f or --file argument is not provided when running the script, it will use the default file path specified in config.py.

To set the default file path, open the config.py file and modify the default_file_path variable:

default_file_path = 'path/to/your/default/markdown/file.md'
