Support relative paths for embedded images about quickmd HOT 1 CLOSED

Currently, it's possible to render a file-relative image using ![Company logo](./distribution/media/logo.png) -- that gets parsed right here:

I'd be happy to implement rendering your example as well. In fact, I think I considered it, but I wasn't sure if it was a file path or a domain name. Now that I'm testing, though, it seems github only parses URLs if they start with http:// or https://, so maybe it'd be quite simple to get this done by changing the .starts_with? with a check for not starting with http:// or with https://. Or maybe even .\w+:// for stuff like ftp:// or file://.

Ideally it would look for the file starting at the root of the current Git repo,

According to this doc, I think repo-root-relative files start with /? https://docs.github.com/en/get-started/writing-on-github/getting-started-with-writing-and-formatting-on-github/basic-writing-and-formatting-syntax#images

This would also be fine to implement, and pretty useful -- the code could check for a .git file or directory upwards, and if it exists, check if that file exists. But maybe this could be done separately.

I can try opening a PR for this if it's not too hard to implement.

I think it should be relatively easy to use the regex crate to check that the "url" in that code doesn't start with a protocol and ://. There's also a test that would need to be tweaked and maybe extended:

If you don't have the time/energy or Rust experience, I can take care of it as well -- let me know 👍.
