Configuration (.floe directory)

All the configuration for your project is stored in the .floe directory. This directory is created when you run the floe init command. The .floe directory contains the following files and directories:

• config.json - The main configuration file for your project.
• rules - Directory containing .md files that define the rules for your project.
• templates - Directory containing .md files that define the templates for your project (coming soon).

Rules

A rule is a .md file that defines a rule for your project. The name of the file is the name of the rule. For example, if you have a rule called spelling-and-grammar, you would create a file called spelling-and-grammar.md in the rules directory. The contents of the file are the description of the rule. For example:

Make sure there are no spelling mistakes or grammatical errors.

Rulesets

A ruleset is a collection of rules. Rulesets are defined in the config.json. Using the previous example, you might define a ruleset called docs like so:

{
  // rest of config...
  "rulesets": {
    "docs": {
      "include": ["**/*.md"],
      "rules": {
        "spelling-and-grammar": "warn"
      }
    }
  }
}

Filtering files

You can filter which files are evaluated by using the include field. You may pass include an array of glob patterns (opens in a new tab).

Rule severity

You can define the severity of a rule by passing a string to the rule. The following severity levels are available:

• warn - The rule will warn you if it finds a violation.
• error - The rule will error if it finds a violation. This will cause the floe command to exit with a non-zero exit code.
