Update for changes in remark, remark-lint

[wooorm]

Hi! 👋

remark-lint recently changed (and so did remark). Each rule is now a separate package published to npm, for example, take the final-newline rule, which is now remark-lint-final-newline.

You can find more info on what changed on the release pages for remark and remark-lint, but they may be lacking as I’m working hard on upgrading the ecosystem first.

There’s a package, unified-lint-rule, that you can (should!) depend on to make rules though. remark-lint-strong-marker, also a good example, uses it to accept options.

To use “rules”, you must install all rules you want to use, for example:

npm install --save remark-lint remark-lint-final-newline remark-lint-strong-marker

And then specify them in your config file like so:

// ...
{
  "plugins": [
    "lint",
    "lint-final-newline",
    ["lint-strong-marker", "*"]
  ]
}
// ...

...on the API you can do the following:

var remark = require('remark');
var lint = require('remark-lint');
var finalNewline = require('remark-lint-final-newline');
var strongMarker = require('remark-lint-strong-marker');

remark()
  .use(lint)
  .use(finalNewline)
  .use(strongMarker, '*')
  // ...

Finally, feel free to drop by in Gitter room, or reply below, to ask any questions you may have!

P.S. When done, could you create a PR for remark-lint to include this in the list of external rules?
