@fedify/markdown-it-mention
===========================

This is a [markdown-it] plugin that parses and renders Mastodon-style @mentions,
e.g., `@username@domain.com`.  It converts them to a link, e.g.:

~~~~ html
<a href="acct:@username@domain.com"><span class="at">@</span><span
  class="user">username</span></a>
~~~~

The value of `href` attributes, other attributes (if any), and the content of
the link can be customized by passing [options] to the plugin:

~~~~ typescript
import MarkdownIt from "markdown-it";
import { mention, toFullHandle } from "@fedify/markdown-it-mention";

const md = new MarkdownIt();
md.use(mention, {
  link: (handle: string, env: any) => `https://example.com/${handle}`,
  linkAttributes: (handle: string, env: any) => ({ class: "mention" }),
  label: toFullHandle,
});
~~~~

> [!TIP]
> The `link` callback can return `null` to disable the link.

If you want to collect all the handles mentioned in the document, you can pass
the environment object to the `render()` method:

~~~~ typescript
const env = {};
md.render(
  "# Hello, @foo@bar.com\n\n> @baz@qux.com",
  env,
);
console.log(env.mentions);  // ["@foo@bar.com", "@baz@qux.com"]
