URLs in markdown code blocks being incorrectly checked

[wolf99]

The PR lycheeverse/lychee#523 seems to indicate that code blocks in markdown will be ignored.

However this is not happening when I add this action in a workflow here: git-ecosystem/git-credential-manager#700

For example the localhost or contoso links are reported as failures. Those examples use fenced code block, indent code block, and inline code markdown formatting. Per these examples:

```
https://example.com
```

    https://example.com

`https://example.com`

Have I done something wrong?

Th following is also "correctly" caught as a broken link.
Is there a way to avoid all file:// type links?

Just realised I have created this PR on the Lychee repo, but I am seeing this with the Lychee Action.
Can someone move this to that repo if that is the correct place?

Code blocks only get excluded when setting the --include-verbatim flag You need to set that in the args of the lychee-action in your pipeline.
That's a new feature and I need to make a new lychee release first. Also see #116.

Oh, maybe I misunderstood the discussion on --include-verbatim in the other issues.

You're saying that including things verbatim actually then excludes some things (such as code blocks)?
The documentation shows: Find links in verbatim sections like `pre`- and `code` blocks, which is the opposite of what I would like.

From your comment: lycheeverse/lychee#523 (comment)

The reason is that we will exclude verbatim links (inside pre and code) by default.

Which is what I actually would like, but that doesn't seem to be happening.

I had thought this was already the default case as I have the action running correctly on another project which I think does this OK (though I can't recall if there are any links in code blocks in that project).

Sorry for the confusion, my bad. What I meant was that the newest version of lychee already excludes code blocks by default, so no need to do anything. 😅

[wolf99]

Thanks that's what I expected.
However if you see the link for the ci run in my initial post, that is not happening; instead it is checking, and failing, on lots of example links within markdown code sections.

The lychee version of lychee-action is not up to date. I need to release a new version first.
