Unified-Language-Server

A language server for text.

Donated this project to UnifiedJS and it's going strong at https://github.com/unifiedjs/unified-language-server . Follow that one instead

It supports all formats Unified.JS can understand:

• plain text
• markdown
• HTML
• and other syntax

And it provides:

• prose and syntax checking
• formatting (in progress)

Install

yarn global add unified-language-server
# OR
npm install -g unified-language-server

And configure your text editor to use:

• unified-language-server --parser=retext-english --stdio for text
• unified-language-server --parser=remark-parse --stdio for markdown

For NeoVim

"inside .vimrc
let g:LanguageClient_serverCommands = {
\ 'text': ['unified-language-server', '--parser=retext-english', '--stdio'],
\ 'markdown': ['unified-language-server', '--parser=remark-parse', '--stdio'],
\ }

And you're ready to go!

Configuration

The server has default configurations for remark-parse(for markdown) and remark-english(for text):

{
	"retext-english": {
		"plugins": [
			["#retext-profanities"],
			["#retext-spell", "#dictionary-en-gb"]
		],
	},
	"remark-parse": {
		"plugins": [
			["#remark-preset-lint-markdown-style-guide"]
			["#remark-retext", "#parse-latin"],
			["#retext-profanities"],
			["#retext-spell", "#dictionary-en-gb"]
		]
	}
}

So, for a markdown file:

1. because we launched it with --parser=remark-parse, it finds the setting with the same name
2. applies all the plugins:
3. remark-preset-lint-markdown-style-guide checks for markdown usage
4. remark-retext extracts the texts from markdown
5. retext-profanities about usage of profanity words
6. retext-spell does spellcheck

More detail on configuration is available at CONFIGURATION.md
