lint relative URLs and web-check of https URLs?

[iampi31415]

I publish my site on Github Pages. Before publishing it I test the links. For external addresses, it works well.

But for URLs like <img src = "/a.jpg"/> how can it test that?

The problem is that I can't check with -b since I'm running the checker before publishing the site.

How can the server-local URLs be properly tested?

Oh, I found out, with --root-dir which should be the server root, for example:

lychee --root-dir book/src book/src/*/*.md

Thanks for the question. Glad to hear you found the answer yourself already. The relevant part of the online documentation can be found at Local File Checking with --root-dir.

I've replaced mdbook-linkcheck by your binary, works really well. Thanks for this neat program.

Really glad to hear that and thank you for the nice words :)
