obsidian/parse-link

This module provides utilities for parsing markdown and wiki links into structured data, and for escaping, unescaping, and encoding link components.

Interfaces

Interface	Description
ParseFrontmatterLinksResult	The result of parsing the links from a note’s frontmatter via parseFrontmatterLinks. Internal single-link frontmatter values are omitted, as Obsidian natively caches them.
ParseLinkFrontmatterReference	A FrontmatterLinkCache for a link parsed from a single-link frontmatter value via parseLinks. It carries the full ParseLinkResult so consumers can inspect the parse details without re-parsing the link. Use this when the whole frontmatter value is a single link.
ParseLinkFrontmatterReferenceWithOffsets	A ParseLinkFrontmatterReference for a link parsed from a multi-link frontmatter value via parseLinks, additionally carrying the offsets of the link within the frontmatter value. Use this when the frontmatter value holds multiple links.
ParseLinkReference	A ReferenceCache for a link parsed from content via parseLinks. It carries the full ParseLinkResult so consumers can inspect the parse details without re-parsing the link.
ParseLinkResult	A result of parsing a link.
ToParseLinkReferenceParams	Params for toParseLinkReference.

Functions

Function	Description
encodeUrl	Encodes a URL.
escapeAlias	Escapes the alias of a markdown link.
isParseLinkFrontmatterReference	Determines whether a reference is a ParseLinkFrontmatterReference.
isParseLinkReference	Determines whether a reference is a ParseLinkReference.
parseFrontmatterLinks	Parses the links from a note’s frontmatter. Each string value is parsed via parseLinks: a value that is a single link yields an entry without offsets, and a value that holds multiple links yields offset-carrying entries. Internal single-link values are omitted, as Obsidian natively caches them.
parseLink	Parses a link into its components.
parseLinks	Parses all links in a string.
toParseLinkReference	Wraps a ParseLinkResult into a ParseLinkReference so it can flow through the reference-based file-change pipeline.
unescapeAlias	Unescapes the alias of a markdown link.
