What are markdownlint-cli2's main functionalities?

Linting Markdown Files

This command lints all Markdown files in the current directory and its subdirectories. It checks for common issues and style inconsistencies in Markdown files.

npx markdownlint-cli2 '**/*.md'

Using a Configuration File

This command uses a configuration file (.markdownlint.json) to specify custom linting rules. This allows for more granular control over the linting process.

npx markdownlint-cli2 '**/*.md' --config .markdownlint.json

Fixing Issues Automatically

This command not only lints the Markdown files but also attempts to fix any issues it finds automatically. This can save time by correcting common mistakes without manual intervention.

npx markdownlint-cli2-fix '**/*.md'

Ignoring Files

This command lints all Markdown files but ignores those in the node_modules directory. This is useful for excluding third-party files from the linting process.

npx markdownlint-cli2 '**/*.md' --ignore node_modules
