Usage
There are several different ways in which you can run the Linter.
On Save
This plugin has an option where you can lint the current file when you save it using Ctrl+S
or :w
if you use vim keybindings.
You will need to turn on the setting for Lint on save
for this to work.
Enabling this setting keeps you from having to manually run the Obsidian Command to a lint a file whenever you want to lint the current file.
On File Close or File Change
There is an option to lint a file when a user either closes it or swaps to a different file. In order to activate this rule,
you will need to turn on the setting for Lint on File Change
.
This way of linting a file can help out if you forget to run the Linter on files before changing to a new file or closing it.
