An external link is a link that points to a resource that is not present in the current OurBigBook project sources. A typical external link is something like:which points to an absolute URL.
This is great website: https://cirosantilli.comwhich renders as:
This is great website: cirosantilli.com
Internal path links are links that point to files present inside the current project. For example, in computer programming tutorials we will often want to refer to source files in the current directory. So from our and here
index.bigb, we could want to write something like:Have a look at this amazing source file: \a[index.js].which renders as:
Have a look at this amazing source file: index.js.
\a[ourbigbook] is a internal link. These should not to be confused with internal links, which may point not only to files, but to any ID, e.g. of headers inside a OurBigBook file.OurBigBook considers a link external by default if it does not have a URL with protocol.
Therefore, the following links are external by default:and the following are internal by default:
http://cirosantilli.comhttps://cirosantilli.comfile:///etc/fstabftp://cirosantilli.com
index.js../index.jspath/to/index.js/path/to/index.js. Note that paths starting with/refer to the root of the OurBigBook CLI deployment, not the root of the domain, see: link to the domain root path.//example.com/path/to/index.js
Implemented at: github.com/ourbigbook/ourbigbook/issues/87 as
relative, and subsequently modified to the more accurate/useful external.
