This is a custom markdownlint rule to lint the alignment of list items and blocks (e.g. code blocks). For example:

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet
   consectetur adipiscing elit.

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet
consectetur adipiscing elit.

* Lorem ipsum
 * Dolor sit amet

* Lorem ipsum
  * Dolor sit amet

1. Lorem ipsum
  * Dolor sit amet

1. Lorem ipsum
   * Dolor sit amet

* Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet
consectetur adipiscing elit

* Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet
  consectetur adipiscing elit

1. Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet
     consectetur adipiscing elit

1. Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet
   consectetur adipiscing elit

* Lorem:

    ```text
    hello world
    ```

* Lorem:

  ```text
  hello world
  ```

> Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet
 > consectetur adipiscing elit

> Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet
> consectetur adipiscing elit

To use this custom markdownlint rule two things needed:

1. Update your markdownlint config to include "indent-alignment": true

2. Add this rule to the list of custom markdownlint rules. If using markdownlint-cli, this would look something like:

   markdownlint -r './node_modules/@silvermine/markdownlint-rule-indent-alignment/src/indent-alignment.js' -c .markdownlint.json README.md

This rule has the following config options:

• ul_indent: Desired indention of ul lists (number, default undefined)

  • By default, child ul items will be aligned with the content. When ul_indent is set, the rule will replicate the behavior of the ul-indent (MD007) rule.
  • Examples:

    • ul_indent: undefined

      * top-level item
        * sub-item
      

    • ul_indent: 3

      * top-level item
         * sub-item
      

• start_indent: Desired indention of all top-level lists (number, default undefined)

  • By default, top-level lists are allowed to be indented at any level as long as it's consistent. When start_indent is set, then any top-level list must be indented at that level.
  • Examples:

    • start_indent: 3

         * top-level item
           * sub-item
      
         1. top-level item
            1. sub-item
