Markdown file path complete in VSCode

Question

Is there any path-autocompletion extension for Markdown in VSCode?

I tried Path Intellisense but this seems to be effective only when using (double) quotation.

I want to use autocompletion when insert images stored in local directory, e.g.:

![](./img/local-img-file.png)

Answer 1

Yes, you can make that happen by using this extension on VS Code.

Relative Path extension

Juste type ctrl (or cmd on mac) + shift + H and type your file name.

Answer 2

It should be built-in to vscode soon, hopefully v1.64.

New setting: markdown.suggest.paths.enabled default is true

• from Commit: Add basic markdown link completions

Only normal links for now. Will add reference links later. Should support the forms:

• [](dir/file.md)
• [](./dir/file.md)
• [](/root-dir/file.md)
• [](#header)
• [](./dir/file.md#header)

The paths suggestions work similarly to path IntelliSense in CSS and HTML files. Paths starting with / are resolved relative to the current workspace, while paths staring with ./ or without any prefix are resolved relative to the current file. Path suggestions are automatically shown when you type / or can be manually invoked by using kb(editor.action.triggerSuggest).

Path IntelliSense can also help you link to headers within the current file or within another Markdown file. Start the path with # to see completions for all the headers in the file (depending on your settings, you may need to use kb(editor.action.triggerSuggest) to see these)
