As you can probably see, I have not maintained, or used this package (or Gatsby for that matter) in a number of years. Frankly, I'm surprised this package still needs to exist. I have no plans to continue working on this so if you would like to take over this repo please let me know.
Convert image src(s) in markdown/html/frontmatter to be relative to their node's parent directory. This will help gatsby-remark-images match images outside the node folder. This was built for use with NetlifyCMS and should be considered a temporary solution until relative paths are supported. If it works for other use cases then great!
src in markdown/mdx html <img /> tagsThe fmImagesToRelative() function has been removed, it is no longer needed.
NOTE: v2 greatly simplifies things and seems to work well for my use-case (NetlifyCMS), if you were previously using this plugin for something else that no longer works with v2, please open an issue and let me know and I will try to accomodate your use-case. Thanks.
# Install v2 (Recommended)
yarn add gatsby-remark-relative-images
# Install v1 (TS refactor, but quickly found more things to simplfy, skip)
npm i gatsby-remark-relative-images@1.1.1
# Install original (a bit hacky but have previously worked for most)
npm i gatsby-remark-relative-images@0.3.0
npm i gatsby-remark-relative-images@0.2.0This usage example is for v2 of this plugin.

description: Brewing with a Chemex probably seems like a complicated, time-consuming ordeal, but once you get used to the process, it becomes a soothing ritual that's worth the effort every time.

<!--  -->
This week we’ll **take** a look at all the steps required to make astonishing coffee with a Chemex at home. The Chemex Coffeemaker is a manual, pour-over style glass-container coffeemaker that Peter Schlumbohm invented in 1941, and which continues to be manufactured by the Chemex Corporation in Chicopee, Massachusetts.
In 1958, designers at the [Illinois Institute of Technology](https://www.spacefarm.digital) said that the Chemex Coffeemaker is _"one of the best-designed products of modern times"_, and so is included in the collection of the Museum of Modern Art in New York City.
## The little secrets of Chemex brewing

The Chemex Coffeemaker consists of an hourglass-shaped glass flask with a conical funnel-like neck (rather than the cylindrical neck of an Erlenmeyer flask) and uses proprietary filters, made of bonded paper (thicker-gauge paper than the standard paper filters for a drip-method coffeemaker) that removes most of the coffee oils, brewing coffee with a taste that is different than coffee brewed in other coffee-making systems; also, the thicker paper of the Chemex coffee filters may assist in removing cafestol, a cholesterol-containing compound found in coffee oils.This is a common error when working with Netlify CMS (see issue gatsby/gatsby#5990).
The application must include the media with gatsby-source-filesystem to include all the uploaded media and to make it available on build time. Note: The media folder must be included before the other content.
For example, an application that is using NetlifyCMS and this plugin, and has a content folder with markdown that comes from Netlify. Here's how the gatsby-config.js should look like:
module.exports = {
plugins: [
{
resolve: `gatsby-source-filesystem`,
options: {
path: `${__dirname}/static/assets`,
name: 'assets',
},
},
{
resolve: `gatsby-source-filesystem`,
options: {
path: `${__dirname}/src/content`,
name: 'content',
},
},
`gatsby-transformer-sharp`,
`gatsby-plugin-sharp`,
{
resolve: `gatsby-transformer-remark`,
options: {
plugins: [
`gatsby-remark-relative-images`,
{
resolve: `gatsby-remark-images`,
options: {},
},
],
},
},
`gatsby-plugin-netlify-cms`,
],
};
