### Python: Extracting Image URLs from Markdown
Source: https://context7.com/context7/business-api_tiktok_portal/llms.txt
A Python script that parses markdown files to extract image URLs using regular expressions. It identifies markdown image syntax () and returns a list of dictionaries containing the alt text and URL.
```python
# Python example: Extract image URLs from documentation
import re
import os
def extract_images(md_file):
with open(md_file, 'r') as f:
content = f.read()
# Find all markdown image references
pattern = r'!\[' # Escape '['
pattern += r'([^\]]*)' # Capture alt text (anything not a closing bracket)
pattern += r'\]\(' # Escape ']' and '('
pattern += r'([^)]+)' # Capture URL (anything not a closing parenthesis)
pattern += r'\)' # Escape ')'
matches = re.findall(pattern, content)
images = [{'alt': alt, 'url': url} for alt, url in matches]
return images
# Usage
# Assuming index.md exists in the same directory
# images = extract_images('index.md')
# for img in images:
# print(f"{img['alt']}: {img['url']}")
# Expected output structure for index.md:
# tt4b logo: https://sf16-website-login.neutral.ttwstatic.com/obj/.../tt4d-new-logo.11a5096d.svg
# TikTok: https://sf16-website-login.neutral.ttwstatic.com/obj/.../Social=TikTok.86785897.svg
