How can I install this along with MkDocs?

[happicamper]

Hello! I'm confused with the instructions in the README, I'm able to include this extension in MkDocs:
markdown_extensions: [markdown_include.include]
Now, I don't have an idea how to use this extension, Here what I want to achieve is to create a file name file.md with a content of:

[URL1]: mydocs/file1.md
[URL2]: mydocs/file2.md
[URL3]: mydocs/file3.md

then calling these relative paths from other markdown files like this:

Here is the [link][URL1] 
Here is the [link][URL2] 
Here is the [link][URL3] 

Is it possible? thanks in advance!

In case you're still watching this @happicamper --

I've gotten markdown-include to work with MkDocs by including the extension like this:

...
markdown_extensions:
  - markdown_include.include:
      base_path: docs
...

where docs is whatever your MkDocs base directory is ("docs" by default).

Then your includes are relative to the docs directory: {! ./file.md !} would inject the contents of /docs/file.md.

What you describe should work since this all happens before markdown processing.
