I need to be able to validate external links that might be derived from attributes.

With this application, you can validate any link directive that references a URL with either an HTTP or HTTPS method.

1. npm i -g asciidoc-aware-link-check

  --csv          Output to stdout in CSV format. Outputs BROKEN_LINK,MODULE,LINE_NUM. This option implies --no-progress and --quiet.

To validate links, enter the following command. Replace <ASSEMBLY_FILE> with the file name that includes any include statements needed to successfully build your documentation.

$ asciidoc-aware-link-check <ASSEMBLY_FILE>

To validate links for your entire documentation set, you might enter the following the command. Replace <ASSEMBLY_DIR> with the directory where you save your assembly files.

$ find <ASSEMBLY_DIR> -type f -name '*.adoc' | \
  xargs -L1 -I% -P1 asciidoc-aware-link-check %
