Marked version: 16.3.0 / master
Markdown flavor: CommonMark
Description
_#3774Expectation
The following Markdown:
_[a[b]c](http://example.com/_/path)_to be parsed into an emphasized link whose text is a codespan. In HTML this should be:
<p><em><a href="http://example.com/_/path"><code>a[b]c</code></a></em></p>Result
Before the change Marked produced a broken output where the emphasis was split and the link text/URL were parsed separately. The produced HTML looked like:
<p><em>[<code>a[b]c</code>](http://example.com/</em>/path)_</p>What was attempted
Updated the em/strong masking pattern so link text that contains a codespan is treated as a single block to be skipped by the em/strong tokenizer.
Changed the
blockSkipregex inmarked/src/rules.tsso bracketed link text may include backtick codespans (allowing patterns like[`a[b]c`]inside[]) and thus be masked as a unit for em parsing.Added spec tests:
test/specs/new/em_link_brackets.mdtest/specs/new/em_link_brackets.htmlWith that change, the inline tokenizer no longer sees the
_delimiter split across the link and URL, so the emphasis wrapping the link is preserved and the output matches the expectation.Contributor
