formatHtmlBlocksInMdx

Format HTML blocks within MDX content with proper indentation

Format HTML blocks within MDX content with proper indentation. Applies to standard HTML elements like <dl>, <table>, <div>, <ul>, etc. Uses a built-in indentation formatter in the Rust engine.

Options

Property	Type	Default	Description
`enabled`	`boolean`	`true`	Enable/disable this rule
`formatterConfig`	`object`	see below	Formatter configuration
`formatterConfig.tabWidth`	`number`	`2`	Number of spaces per indentation level
`formatterConfig.useTabs`	`boolean`	`false`	Use tabs instead of spaces

Config

{
  "formatHtmlBlocksInMdx": {
    "enabled": true,
    "formatterConfig": {
      "parser": "html",
      "tabWidth": 4,
      "useTabs": false
    }
  }
}

Line Wrapping

The formatter uses a very large print width internally, so HTML content is not wrapped to a specific line length. Only indentation and whitespace normalization are applied.
