How to apply YAML linting rules to Markdown front matter?

[BenjaminOddou]

Hello,

I would like to apply the same YAML formatting rules to the front matter in my Markdown (.md) files as I do for my standalone YAML (.yml) files.

For example, in a .yml file, the linter flags an indentation of 4 spaces and corrects it to 2:

Incorrect code (.yml):

# some_file.yml
title: A title
description: A description
auth:
    role: some_value

This correctly triggers the linting error: Expected indentation of 2 spaces but found 4 spaces. eslint(yaml/indent).

Corrected code (.yml):

# some_file.yml
title: A title
description: A description
auth:
  role: some_value # Indentation is now 2 spaces

However, these rules are not being applied to the YAML front matter block within my .md files. The linter ignores the indentation issue in the following example:

some_file.md

---
title: A title
description: A description
auth:
    role: some_value
---

# Hello World !

Is there a way to configure ESLint to parse and format the YAML front matter inside Markdown files using the same rules defined for .yml files?

Thank you!
