htmlcs format --in-place foo.html do format foo.html & write file in place
```
* in Node.js / browser (with [browserify](https://github.com/substack/node-browserify))
* hint file
```javascript
var htmlcs = require('htmlcs');
var result = htmlcs.hintFile(filePath);
```
* hint code (string)
```javascript
var htmlcs = require('htmlcs');
var result = htmlcs.hint(code);
// Or
htmlcs.hintAsync(code).then(
result => { /* ... */ }
);
```
* use hint result
```javascript
result.forEach(function(item){
console.log(
'[%s] line %d, column %d: %s (%s, %s)',
item.type,
item.line,
item.column,
item.message,
item.rule,
item.code
);
});
```
* format file
```javascript
var htmlcs = require('htmlcs');
console.log(htmlcs.formatFile(filePath));
```
* format code (string)
```javascript
var htmlcs = require('htmlcs');
console.log(htmlcs.format(code));
// Or
htmlcs.formatAsync(code).then(
result => console.log(result)
);
```
* add rule
```javascript
var htmlcs = require('htmlcs');
htmlcs.addRule({
name: 'test-rule',
desc: 'Just a test rule.',
lint: function (getCfg, document, reporter) {
reporter.warn(
1,
'099',
'This is a test waring!'
);
}
});
var result = htmlcs.hint(code);
```
* with Gulp/Grunt
There is no official Gulp/Grunt plugin yet. We recommend [fecs](https://github.com/ecomfe/fecs), which uses htmlcs to hint HTML code and provides a wealth of tools.

### Rules & Codes
