MLink is a VS Code extension designed for Markdown creators and knowledge base managers (like Obsidian or Logseq users). It automatically analyzes Outgoing Links and Backlinks for your current document, providing a seamless navigation experience within your workspace.
Key Features
Bi-directional Link Analysis:
Outgoing Links: Real-time extraction of all local files, headers, and directory references within the current document.
Backlinks: Instant discovery of which documents across your entire workspace reference the current file.
Smart Path Resolution:
Supports standard Markdown syntax [text](https://github.com/sywc670/mlink/blob/HEAD/path) and Wiki-link syntax [[path]].
Handles both absolute paths (relative to the workspace root) and relative paths.
Auto-completion: Automatically identifies and jumps to files even if the .md extension is missing in the link.
Directory & File Recognition:
Distinguishes between files and folders, displaying distinct icons for each.
Clicking a directory link reveals the folder directly in the VS Code Explorer.
High-Performance Memory Indexing:
Optimized for large knowledge bases using an in-memory indexing strategy to avoid redundant disk scanning.
Real-time updates via a file system watcher—your links stay in sync as you type.
Context-Aware UI:
The sidebar views automatically hide when you are not editing a .md file, keeping your workspace clean and focused.
