Links and images in Markdown can provide the link destination or image source
|
|
at the time of use or can define it elsewhere and use a label for reference.
|
|
The reference format is convenient for keeping paragraph text clutter-free
|
|
and makes it easy to reuse the same URL in multiple places.
|
|
|
|
There are three kinds of reference links and images:
|
|
|
|
```markdown
|
|
Full: [text][label]
|
|
Collapsed: [label][]
|
|
Shortcut: [label]
|
|
|
|
Full: ![text][image]
|
|
Collapsed: ![image][]
|
|
Shortcut: ![image]
|
|
|
|
[label]: https://example.com/label
|
|
[image]: https://example.com/image
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
A link or image renders correctly when the corresponding label is defined, but
|
|
displays as text with brackets when the label is not present. By default, this
|
|
rule warns of undefined labels for "full" and "collapsed" reference syntax but
|
|
not for "shortcut" syntax because it is ambiguous.
|
|
|
|
The text `[example]` could be a shortcut link or the text "example" in brackets,
|
|
so "shortcut" syntax is ignored by default. To include "shortcut" syntax, set
|
|
the `include_shortcut` parameter to `true`. Note that doing so produces warnings
|
|
for *all* text in the document that *could* be a shortcut. If bracketed text is
|
|
intentional, brackets can be escaped with the `\` character: `\[example\]`.
|
|
|
|
If there are link labels that are deliberately unreferenced, they can be ignored
|
|
by setting the `ignored_labels` parameter to the list of strings to ignore. The
|
|
default value of this parameter ignores the checkbox syntax used by
