Setting up the SEO analyzer is as simple as possible. It will look something like this:
const SeoAnalyzer = require('seo-analyzer');
new SeoAnalyzer()
.inputFiles(<array>)
.addRule(<function>)
.addRule(<function>)
.outputConsole();
Next I will show you some examples.
const SeoAnalyzer = require('seo-analyzer');
new SeoAnalyzer()
.ignoreUrls(['/404', '/login'])
.inputSpaFolder('/dist', 3000)
.addRule('imgTagWithAltAttributeRule')
.outputConsole();
const SeoAnalyzer = require('seo-analyzer');
new SeoAnalyzer()
.inputFiles(['index.html', 'about.html'])
.addRule('imgTagWithAltAttributeRule')
.outputConsole();
const SeoAnalyzer = require('seo-analyzer');
new SeoAnalyzer()
.inputFolders(['dist', 'src'])
.addRule('imgTagWithAltAttributeRule')
.outputConsole();
const SeoAnalyzer = require('seo-analyzer');
new SeoAnalyzer()
.inputFolders(['dist', 'src'])
.addRule('imgTagWithAltAttributeRule')
.outputJson(json => console.log(json));
const SeoAnalyzer = require('seo-analyzer');
new SeoAnalyzer()
.ignoreFolders(['src/test'])
.ignoreFiles(['src/404.html'])
.inputFolders(['dist', 'src'])
.addRule('imgTagWithAltAttributeRule')
.outputObject(obj => console.log(obj));
const SeoAnalyzer = require('seo-analyzer');
new SeoAnalyzer()
.inputNextJs(3000)
.addRule('imgTagWithAltAttributeRule')
.outputConsole();

A custom rule is a function that takes a DOM tree argument.
function customRule(dom) {
return new Promise(async (resolve, reject) => {
const paragraph = dom.window.document.querySelector('p');
if (paragraph) {
resolve('');
} else {
reject('Not found <p> tags');
}
});
}
...
.addRule(customRule)
...
One new rule was created and three obsolete rules were deleted.
