Specifying options from the command line

[Tim Carry]

Hello,

I'm trying to use your plugin through the remark-cli commandline, using the following configuration file:

{
  "plugins": {
    "word-wrap": {
      "width": 80
    }
  },
}

But the word wrap keep happening at 72 chars. I tried other values, I also tried the other options (indent and newline), and tried the ["word-wrap", { width: 80 }] syntax in the config, but none worked.

I wonder if the issue is coming from the way I try to pass settings (following documentation here) or if it's something that is not possible with your plugin.

Any tips would be welcome,

Cheers,

[Titus]

This plugin unfortunately hasn't been updated in a while. It also never really worked from what I gather :(

Thanks for info @wooorm. I ended up disabling it as it was cutting lines in weird places.

Do you have any plan on integration a similar feature in the official plugins maybe? I'm using remark-lint and trying to find a way to auto-fix most of the violations.

prettier itself is great at formatting. It used remark for markdown under the hood, so of course it’s a good option ;)

I don’t really have a plan on doing this. It’s super hard to do properly in a “plugin”, because you need to know how every node is going to be printed. We talked a bit about it in GH-4 (and on other mediums that aren’t recorded, if I recall correctly).

If someone wants to work on it, I suggest sort of what prettier does and wrapping the compiler (similar to what remark-frontmatter for example does).

I wasn't aware prettier also formatted Markdown! Thanks for the tip, I'll have a look at it.
