Add support for json and yaml files

[ocefpaf]

Would it make sense to add support for checking json and yaml files in this plugin? Many websites store data (and links) in those format and checking for those would be nice.

I think this is a good idea, especially for web development, in general. Personally, I still not quite sure if this is out-of-scope for this package because these formats (.json, .yml/.yaml) will be used for outputs. And there are quite a lot more data base formats (e.g., .xml) out there...

With reference to above suggestion, I would like to request a support for checking Python scripts (.py) as well. Sometimes you have

• URLs or paths in the code
• links in the code comments for reference

Would be nice if you could check that too! 🙂
