spellcheck-github-actions

A Github Action that spell checks JavaScript, Vue, Markdown, HTML, and Text files.

This action uses PySpelling to check source files in the project.

Configuration

If your repo contains spellcheck.yaml it will be used instead of the default config.

See https://facelessuser.github.io/pyspelling/configuration/ for options.

Note it must be .yaml not .yml

Upstream

Based on rojopolis/spellcheck-github-actions

That repo is python centric and was not working for us so we made this fork

Wordlists

You can place a wordlist.txt file in the root of your project.

This will override the default list.

Example Config

This is the default config
