Describe the solution you'd like

Image Links

Should be what ![hi]() will render into

Obsidian app supports this syntax, in the past we have been only using markdown syntax for obsidian.nvim's image pasting capability, but in order to be more consistent, I want to resolve this issue: epwalsh/obsidian.nvim#582, but I do need renderers to work with us here and resolve this rendering issue.

Media Links

obsidian app supports these formats for attachments, and obsidian.nvim is intending to support them all: obsidian-nvim/obsidian.nvim#77

So it would be nicer if the ![[name.ext]] can get conceal based on the ext, i.e. videos have a tv icon and audios have a headphone icon etc.

Describe alternatives you've considered

I can also work with is you can point me to some API to register these capability ourselves :)

Your after looks rather strange, the !, [, and ] characters should all be hidden after rendering as is. Is something modifying the conceal level or are you using custom (not shipped by nvim-treesitter) highlights?

I've done a couple things to improve the behavior here: 6910fe1

First was removing the extra image icon before the wiki link icon, instead the rendering only does the wiki link step now.

Second is adding the ability to add suffix based icons, I can add more defaults out of the box but would like you to provide the extensions & icons we should use.

The config will look something like:

require('render-markdown').setup({
    link = {
        custom = {
            pdf = { kind = 'suffix', pattern = '. pdf', icon = ' ' },
        },
    },
})

Currently we provide values for various urls: https://github.com/MeanderingProgrammer/render-markdown.nvim?tab=readme-ov-file#links

LMK the full list of extensions and icons you would like and I can add them!

Ok I know the issue now, I have been using the minimal.lua in our repo to test, and I did not setup nvim-treesitter in it.

Then it is the issue with non-ts functionalities, I am actually surprise it works without tree-sitter, so maybe look into it if you want?

This plugin doesn't need nvim-treesitter as a dependency exactly, it just needs the markdown treesitter parser to be on your runtime path to work. Since 0.10.0 (I believe but maybe earlier) neovim ships with the markdown parser builtin so nvim-treesitter isn't really necessary at all for basic functionality.

But to have decent rendering you should enable highlights, which is where various concealing behavior comes from, and that either requires you to write an autocommand or use nvim-treesitter with the highlights module enabled.

I would add the following to your minimal.lua:

local plugins = {
    {
        'nvim-treesitter/nvim-treesitter',
        build = ':TSUpdate',
        config = function()
            require('nvim-treesitter.configs').setup({
                ensure_installed = { 'markdown', 'markdown_inline' },
                highlight = { enable = true },
            })
        end,
    },
    {
        'MeanderingProgrammer/render-markdown.nvim',
        dependencies = {
            'nvim-treesitter/nvim-treesitter',
            'echasnovski/mini.nvim',
        },
        opts = {},
    },
}

Please provide the extensions & icons as a table in a comment. Something like:

Extension	Icon
pdf	
...	...

Marking as complete, will add the icons if provided.
