remark-lint-no-tabs

library4.0.1jsnpmunverified

Remark-lint rule to warn when hard tabs are used in Markdown instead of spaces. Current stable version is 4.0.1. It is part of the remark-lint monorepo, which is actively maintained with frequent releases. This rule is specific to Markdown, where tabs can cause unexpected rendering due to the hardcoded tab size of 4, making it distinct from general linters. It works with unified and remark-stringify, which automatically uses spaces. No options needed.

remarkLintNoTabs

✓ import remarkLintNoTabs from 'remark-lint-no-tabs'

✗ const remarkLintNoTabs = require('remark-lint-no-tabs')

Package is ESM-only since v3. Default export is the plugin function.

remarkLint

✓ import remarkLint from 'remark-lint'

✗ import { remarkLint } from 'remark-lint'

remark-lint is a default export, not a named export.

unified

✓ import { unified } from 'unified'

✗ import unified from 'unified'

unified is a named export since v9. Default export is deprecated.

Sets up a unified pipeline with remark, parses a Markdown file, lints for tabs, and reports any issues.

import remarkLint from 'remark-lint' import remarkLintNoTabs from 'remark-lint-no-tabs' import remarkParse from 'remark-parse' import remarkStringify from 'remark-stringify' import { read } from 'to-vfile' import { unified } from 'unified' import { reporter } from 'vfile-reporter' const file = await read('example.md') await unified() .use(remarkParse) .use(remarkLint) .use(remarkLintNoTabs) .use(remarkStringify) .process(file) console.error(reporter(file))

Debug

Known issues

breakingPackage is ESM-only since v3. require() will throw ERR_REQUIRE_ESM.

fix

Use import instead of require(). If using CommonJS, use dynamic import() or upgrade to Node.js 16+.

affects: >=3.0.0

deprecatedThe previous version 2.x used a different API signature. The plugin no longer accepts options.

fix

Remove any options passed to remarkLintNoTabs(). In v3+, the rule has no options.

affects: 2.x

gotchaThis rule only checks for hard tab characters (U+0009). It does not check for leading spaces or mixed indentation.

fix

Combine with other rules like remark-lint-no-mixed-spaces-and-tabs if needed.

affects: all

breakingThe package no longer exports a namespace. Default export is the plugin function.

fix

Use default import: import remarkLintNoTabs from 'remark-lint-no-tabs'

affects: >=3.0.0
