Introducing Enhanced Alert Actions and Triage Functionality
Socket now supports four distinct alert actions instead of the previous two, and alert triaging allows users to override the actions taken for all individual alerts.

Package description
The unified npm package is an interface for parsing, inspecting, transforming, and serializing content through syntax trees. It is built on the concept of syntax trees and is often used to work with content in markdown, HTML, and plain text formats. Unified is part of the unified collective which provides a range of plugins and utilities for content processing.
Parsing Markdown to Syntax Trees
This feature allows you to parse Markdown content into an abstract syntax tree (AST) using the remark-parse plugin.
const unified = require('unified');
const markdown = require('remark-parse');
const processor = unified().use(markdown);
const tree = processor.parse('# Hello world');
console.log(tree);
Transforming Syntax Trees
This feature demonstrates transforming a Markdown AST to an HTML AST and then serializing it to an HTML string.
const unified = require('unified');
const markdown = require('remark-parse');
const remark2rehype = require('remark-rehype');
const html = require('rehype-stringify');
const processor = unified()
.use(markdown)
.use(remark2rehype)
.use(html);
const file = processor.processSync('# Hello world');
console.log(String(file));
Linting and Validating Markdown
This feature shows how to use unified with remark-lint to lint and validate Markdown content.
const unified = require('unified');
const markdown = require('remark-parse');
const remarkLint = require('remark-lint');
const processor = unified()
.use(markdown)
.use(remarkLint);
processor.process('# Hello world', function (err, file) {
console.error(report(err || file));
});
Compiling Markdown to HTML
This feature illustrates compiling Markdown to a fully formatted HTML document.
const unified = require('unified');
const markdown = require('remark-parse');
const remark2rehype = require('remark-rehype');
const doc = require('rehype-document');
const format = require('rehype-format');
const html = require('rehype-stringify');
const processor = unified()
.use(markdown)
.use(remark2rehype)
.use(doc)
.use(format)
.use(html);
const file = processor.processSync('# Hello world');
console.log(String(file));
markdown-it is a Markdown parser with a focus on speed and extensibility. It is similar to unified in that it can parse and render Markdown, but it does not use an AST or provide the same plugin ecosystem.
remarkable is another Markdown parser and renderer. It offers a similar feature set to markdown-it but also does not use an AST or have the extensive plugin system that unified offers.
showdown is a JavaScript Markdown to HTML converter. It is similar to unified in that it converts Markdown to HTML, but it does not provide a unified interface for parsing, transforming, and serializing content.
Readme
Text processing framework: Parse / Transform / Compile.
This library provides the boilerplate to make parsing and compiling pluggable. It’s in use by mdast, retext, and hast.
npm:
npm install unified
unified is also available for bower, component, and duo, and as an AMD, CommonJS, and globals module, uncompressed and compressed.
From mdast:
var unified = require('unified');
var Parser = require('./lib/parse.js');
var Compiler = require('./lib/stringify.js');
module.exports = unified({
'name': 'mdast',
'Parser': Parser,
'Compiler': Compiler
});
Create a new Processor
constructor.
Parameters — options
(Object
):
name
(string
) — Unique namespace, e.g. 'mdast'
or 'retext'
.
data
(Object
, optional) — JSON.stringify
able dictionary providing
information to Parser
, Compiler
, and plug-ins.
Parser
(Function
) — Constructor which transforms a virtual file
into a syntax tree. When input is parsed, this function will be
constructed with a file
, settings
, and the processor. Parser
instances must have a parse
method which returns a node
(an object
with a type
property).
The string representation of a file can be accessed by executing
file.toString();
.
Compiler
(Function
) — Constructor which transforms a node
into a string. When input is compiled, this function will be
constructed with a file
, settings
, and the processor. Compiler
instances must have a compile
method which returns a string
.
The syntax tree representation of a file can be accessed by executing
file.namespace(name).tree
.
Returns — Function
(Processor
constructor).
Note that all methods on the instance are also available as functions on the constructor, which, when invoked, create a new instance.
Thus, invoking
new Processor().process()
is the same asProcessor.process()
.
Create a new Processor
instance.
Parameters
processor
(Processor
, optional) — Uses all plug-ins available on the
reference processor instance, on the newly constructed processor instance.Returns
Processor
.
The constructors passed to unified
at 'Parser'
and 'Compiler'
are stored on Processor
instances. The Parser
is responsible for parsing a virtual file into a syntax tree, and the
Compiler
for compiling a syntax tree into something else.
When a processor is constructed, both are passed to unherit, which ensures that plug-ins can change how the processor instance parses and compiles without affecting other processors.
Parser
s must have a parse
method, Compiler
s a compile
method.
Change the way the processor works by using a plugin.
Signatures
unified = unified.use(plugin[, input...])
;unified = unified.use(plugins)
.Parameters
plugin
(Function
) — Plugin.plugins
(Array.<Function>
) — List of plugins.input
(*
) — Passed to plugin. Specified by its documentation.Returns
Processor
— this
(the context object).
A uniware plugin changes the way the applied-on processor works. It does two things:
Both have their own function. The first is called an “attacher”. The second is named a “transformer”. An “attacher” may return a “transformer”.
To modify the processor, create an attacher. An attacher is the thing passed to
use
. It can
receive plugin specific options, but that’s entirely up to the third-party
developer.
An attacher is invoked when the plugin is
use
d, and can
return a transformer which will be called on subsequent
process()
s and
run()
s.
Signatures
transformer? = attacher(processor[, input...])
.Parameters
processor
(Processor
) — Context on which the plugin was
use
d;
input
(*
) — Passed by the user of a plug-in.
Returns
transformer
(optional).
To transform a syntax tree, create a transformer. A transformer is a simple
(generator) function which is invoked each time a file is
process()
s and
run()
s. A transformer should
change the syntax tree representation of a file.
Signatures
err? = transformer(node, file)
;transformer(node, file, next)
;Promise.<null, Error> = transformer(node, file)
;transformer*(node, file)
.Parameters
node
(Node
) — Syntax tree representation of a file;
file
(VFile
) — Virtual file;
next
(function([err])
, optional) — If the signature includes both
next
, transformer
may finish asynchronous, and must
invoke next()
on completion with an optional error.
Returns — Optionally:
Error
— Exception which will be thrown;
Promise.<null, Error>
— Promise which must be resolved or rejected
on completion.
Parse a document into a syntax tree.
When given a file, stores the returned node on that file.
Signatures
