Usage

Create the stream and write a commonmark document:

var filter = require('mkfilter')
  , ast = require('mkast');
ast.src('## Heading\n\nParagraph.')
  .pipe(filter({heading: true}))
  .pipe(ast.stringify({indent: 0}))
  .pipe(process.stdout);

Examples

Remove all headings from a document:

mkcat README.md | mkfilter --heading | mkout

Remove everything but headings and text from a document:

mkcat README.md | mkfilter --heading --text --invert | mkout

Print code blocks in a document:

mkcat README.md | mkfilter --code-block --invert | mkout

Be careful with inline elements, if the parent element is filtered out they are not included:

mkcat README.md | mkfilter --link --invert | mkout

But if you add a block level element to the filter:

mkcat README.md | mkfilter --link --paragraph --invert | mkout

They will be included in the output.
