Since Asciidoctor 1.5.0 we can use the document attribute hide-uri-scheme to turn URLs into links, where the link text is displayed without the URI scheme. This can save typing when we simply want to add a URL without any special description.
In the next Asciidoc syntax we first define URLs without the hide-uri-scheme attribute, followed by URLs after the attribute is set:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 | Reference to http://www.mrhaki.com is turned into link +`+<a href="http://www.mrhaki.com">http://www.mrhaki.com</a>+`.To loose URI scheme we could write the linkas http://www.mrhaki.com[www.mrhaki.com]. Or we can use the new attribute `hide-uri-scheme` which isadded to Asciidoctor 1.5.0.:hide-uri-scheme:After applying the `hide-uri-scheme` attributethe URI scheme is removed from the text in links.So a reference to http://www.mrhaki.com isturned into the link +`+<a href="http://www.mrhaki.com">www.mrhaki.com</a>+`This also works for other URI schemes like `file`.For example file:///Users/mrhaki/file.txt is translated to +`+<a href="file:///Users/mrhaki/file.txt">/Users/mrhaki/file.txt</a>+`. |
When we generate output using the HTML backend we see the following output:
Written with Asciidoctor 1.5.0.
