I want to disable parsing images

should not be parsed
See #420
Any updates on how can we disable parsing images?
No commits were made since my last comment. That method I linked is still the easiest one to achieve what you need.
I don't believe we need a new feature for this since it can be disabled as discussed in #420 and #1302
const marked = require('marked');
const renderer = new marked.Renderer();
renderer.image = function (text) {
return text;
};
var html = marked(markdownString, { renderer: renderer });
