markdown-toc-cli

Insert a table-of-contents into a Markdown file.

Heavily inspired from this project: https://github.com/hukkin/mdformat-toc

I'd recommend using that unless you don't want to run the built-in mdformat formatting. Then this tool might be suitable for a standalone version.

Installation

pip install markdown-toc-cli

Usage

Add a comment like this to the Markdown file:

<!-- markdown-toc-cli --prefix='- ' --indentation='  ' --minlevel=1 --maxlevel=6 -->

All arguments are optional, with the defaults values shown above (compatible with GitHub flavored markdown).

Then run the tool:
