FilterRuleContext

shouldIgnore() is core API of FilterRuleContext.

shouldIgnore(range, { ruleId }) is a method that report reports ignoring range( is array like [start, end]).
- context.shouldIgnore(node.range); filter all messages
- context.shouldIgnore(node.range, { ruleId: "rule-id" }); filter messages that are reported "rule-id" rule.
Syntax.* is const values of TxtNode type.
- e.g.) context.Syntax.Str
- packages/@textlint/ast-node-types/src/index.ts
getSource(<node>) is a method gets the source code for the given node.
- e.g.) context.getSource(node); // => "text"
getFilePath() return file path that is linting target.
- e.g.) context.getFilePath(): // => /path/to/file.md or undefined

Example

Filter all BlockQuote node.

module.exports = function (context) {
    const exports = {};
    exports[context.Syntax.BlockQuote] = function (node) {
        context.shouldIgnore(node.range);
        /* === 
        context.shouldIgnore(node.range, {
             ruleId: "*"
        });
        */
    };
    return exports;
};

Filter messages which is reported by no-todo rule.

module.exports = function (context) {
    const exports = {};
    exports[context.Syntax.Str] = function (node) {
        context.shouldIgnore(node.range, {
            ruleId: "no-todo"
        });
    };
    return exports;
};

Package name convention

textlint's filter rule should use textlint-filter-rule- prefix.

For example, filtering by comment rule is textlint-filter-rule-comments.

textlint user use it by setting following:

{
    "filters": {
        "comments": true
    }
}
