Doesn't transform remote URL in markdown meta

[kylegillen]

Plugin works as expected with relative image path in meta, but fails to transform a remote url.
Am I doing something wrong? Is this expected to work?

Doesn't work

Hi @nextriot, this plugin only works for markdown content, so link in meta/frontmatter won't be touched. Maybe something like this can help you? https://github.com/graysonhicks/gatsby-plugin-remote-images

Comes to think about it, we can add support for this when we can detect image link from meta, i.e http....image.png or a absolute path (/assets/image.png). I'll take a look & see if we can add this in

Awesome! Thanks Derek. Please let me know if there's anything I can help test, or provide. Just to clarify, it does seem to work with relative paths in the meta. I assume you meant remote images won't be touched in the meta?

For sure, I will ping you when I get a PR going!

it does seem to work with relative paths in the meta.

Gatsby supports relative path out of the box, same for paths in markdown content. This plugin add supports to partial path (i.e /assets/image.png, which this plugin resolves to /root/project/dir/assets/image.png) and remote images.
