Action

Posted by @jsamlarose, Last update about 1 month ago

A quick and simple way to preview images (markdown image links) in the current Draft.

Steps

script

// Search for markdown image links in the current draft and preview them in an HTML preview

// Get the content of the current draft
let content = draft.content;

// Regular expression to match markdown image links
let regex = /!\[.*?\]\((.*?)\)/g;

// Array to store image URLs
let imageUrls = [];

// Match markdown image links and extract image URLs
let match;
while ((match = regex.exec(content)) !== null) {
    imageUrls.push(match[1]);
}

// If there are image URLs, create an HTML preview
if (imageUrls.length > 0) {
    let html = "<html><head><style>body { background-color: #333; color: white; }</style></head><body>";
    
    
    // Add image tags to the HTML
    for (let url of imageUrls) {
        html += `<img src="${url}" style="width: 100%;"><br>`;
    }
    
    html += "</body></html>";
    
    // Create an HTMLPreview object and load the HTML content
    let preview = HTMLPreview.create();
    preview.show();

    if (preview.show(html)) {  
      // continue button was pressed  
    }  
    else {  
      // cancel button was pressed  
    }
} else {
    app.displayInfoMessage("No markdown image links found.");
}
