remark-unlink-protocols

remark plugin to turn links into plain text based on their protocols.

What is this?

This package is a unified (remark) plugin to remove all links that use other protocols than the ones specified (http and https by default).

When should I use this?

This project is useful if you want to limit the protocols that can be linked to when processing markdown.

Install

This package is ESM only. In Node.js (version 16+), install with npm:

npm install remark-unlink-protocols

Use

Say we have the following file example.md and apply remark-unlink-protocols with the default protocols (http and https).

# Uranus

**Uranus** is the seventh [planet](/wiki/Planet 'Planet') from the Sun and is a
gaseous cyan [ice giant](/wiki/Ice_giant 'Ice giant').

Photograph of Uranus in true colour by Voyager 2 in 1986:

…and a module example.js:

import {remark} from 'remark'
import remarkUnlinkProtocols from 'remark-unlink-protocols'
import {read} from 'to-vfile'

const file = await remark()
  .use(remarkUnlinkProtocols, { except: 'mailto' })
  .process(await read('example.md'))

console.log(String(file))

…then running node example.js yields:
