Custom rules not working

[LucEnden]

Describe the bug
None of my custom rules seem to work.

Bellow is a testing rule I have setup (linting/htmlhint/no-div.js):

module.exports = HTMLHint => {
    HTMLHint.addRule({
        id: 'no-div',
        description: 'Description of my rule',
        init(parser, reporter) {
            const self = this;
            parser.addListener('tagstart', event => {
                const tagName = event.tagName.toLowerCase();
                if (tagName === 'div') {
                    reporter.warn('Do not use divs!', event.line, event.col, self, event.raw);
                }
            });
        },
    });
};

.htmlhintrc:

{
    "rulesdir": ["linting/htmlhint"],
    "no-div": true,
    "tagname-lowercase": false,
    "attr-lowercase": false,
    "attr-value-double-quotes": true,
    "doctype-first": false,
    "tag-pair": true,
    "spec-char-escape": true,
    "id-unique": true,
    "src-not-empty": true,
    "attr-no-duplication": true,
    "title-require": true
}

test file (test.html):

<div>test</div>

I run npx htmlhint, which finds the right config file, but my rule does not trigger.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Use npm install --save-dev htmlhint@1.1.4
2. Recreate the file structure as described in the description
3. run npx htmlhint, which finds the right config file, but my rule does not trigger.
4. No linting errors reported

Expected behavior
An error should be reported that I am using a div

Screenshots

Edit: I already tried the following;

• Using differnet paths for the rulesdir option
• Different implementations for my rule file

You need to provide the rulesdir via cli not configuration file e.g. npx htmlhint --rulesdir linting/htmlhint/

I will be trying this tonight

The error persists when specifying the rules dir via the CLI

I opted to use custom logic (Python script) to implement my linting. I have removed HTMLHint from my application

So no, I did not find a solution for this particular problem.
