local server: handling extensionless links

[domdomegg]

A lot of people use links that look like /some-path on their sites. Under the hood, the web server maps this to the file some-path.html (e.g. like Vercel's cleanUrls option).

Unfortuantely, when running linkinator on a directory it doesn't figure these links out, and reports them as missing.

Is there a way to get something like this working with linkinator? I gave URL rewriting a go, but struggled to get it working with any of:

npx linkinator ./dist --url-rewrite-search 'dist/.*$' --url-rewrite-replace '$0.html'
npx linkinator ./dist --url-rewrite-search '(?<=dist/.*)$' --url-rewrite-replace '.html'
npx linkinator ./dist/index.html --url-rewrite-search '(?<=dist/.*)$' --url-rewrite-replace '.html'
npx linkinator ./dist/index --url-rewrite-search '(?<=dist/.*)$' --url-rewrite-replace '.html'
