🚨 mdlinkt

A CLI tool for detecting dead or inaccessible links in markdown files.

Usage

To check a markdown file for dead or inaccessible links

mdlinkt -file your-file.md

This will return each tested link and a summary message in an example markdown file containing 1 valid and 1 invalid file.

mdlinkt -file test.md
2023/12/12 12:00:00 ERROR Invalid link: https://probablynotvalid.com
2023/12/12 12:00:00 INFO Summary: 1 valid links, 1 invalid links

Should you want more details on the links that are scanned, you may pass the -verbose flag.

2023/12/12 12:00:00 INFO Summary: 1 valid links, 1 invalid links

In case of invalid links, the program will exit with exit code 1, making it perfect for usage in GitHub actions or other pipelines.
