AWS Codecommit Markdown embedded pictures images

Question

We are using AWS Codecommit for our projects documentation in Markdown.

I would like to know how it is possible to create a markdown link that allows to display embedded images (to be visualized while in CodeCommit).

The images are also in Codecommit. Do we need to use S3 and point there? I wanted to keep the images private to our project.

TIA

Solution:

It seems to work with SVG files.

Markdown has native support for images. What about that is not working? Can you provide an example? – Mattias

@Mattias Hi, i was looking for a way to markdown reference images in the same Codecommit repository, and be able to see it when browsing in CodeCommit. We store everything in AWS so we would use it as a wiki. – Laid

Answer 1

Same question as Waylan; is there an issue with native Markdown support in CodeCommit.

At this time, CodeCommit does not support the ability to reference images in markdown that are stored within the same CodeCommit repository. I will pass this feature request along to the team to consider in their development roadmap.

As discussed in this AWS forum, this feature is not yet available. – Raskind

What did happen to 'I will pass this feature request along to the team to consider in their development roadmap'? 1. where is this roadmap? 2. did it get implemented? 3. is there any other written document that this has been added to a development roadmap? Or is AWS playin its devrel marketing stunt game here? – Homoousian

Still not implemented – Aromaticity

Answer 2

They did finally implement relative path image display within the repo.

I found this post from 4 months ago: https://repost.aws/questions/QUFhJQu2fqSuuBxXrcX1bLiQ/codecommit-embedded-image-in-readme

We have fixed markdown images to work from external sources and internal (relative repo paths) to work. Customers can use sub1/sub2/file.png for image under the current directory ../../test-image-1.png for images in a folder that above this one ../../img/test-image-2.png for images that are in another folder and not in this subtree
