Why is attrs not an object?

[reggi]

I'm curious as to why this isn't a key / value pair?

"attrs": [
  [
    "href",
    "#fragment"
  ]
],

Because ordering makes sence for testing, and no needs to care about hacks like "proto" name and so on.

@puzrin How can I reliably access / select the href value of a node?

Am I doing this right?

var _ = require('lodash')
var fs = require('fs')
var MarkdownIt = require('markdown-it')
var md = new MarkdownIt()
var src = fs.readFileSync('./check-asAuthored.md', 'utf8')
var nodes = md.parse(src)
_.each(nodes, function (node) {
  if (node.type === 'inline') {
    _.each(node.children, function (child) {
      if (child.attrs) {
        var hrefIndex = child.attrIndex('href')
        var hrefValue = child.attrs[hrefIndex][1]
        console.log(hrefValue)
      }
    })
  }
})

@puzrin looking for a better way of doing this. :)

function anchor (node) {
  var anchor = {}
  anchor.text = undefined
  anchor.href = undefined
  if (node.type === 'inline' && node.content) {
    var pattern = /\[(.+)?\]\((.+)?\)/
    var pieces = node.content.match(pattern)
    if (!pieces) return anchor
    anchor.text = pieces[1]
    anchor.href = pieces[2]
  }
  return anchor
}

nodes = _.map(nodes, function (node) {
  node.anchor = anchor(node)
  console.log(node.anchor)
  return node
})

@puzrin I now undertand type inline & my regex breaks here

 content: '[](#preventEval)\n[./winning.js](#fileEval)',
