Research direction

Start by tracing the comment create trigger and its payload fields, especially body, hasMedia, elementTypes, and mediaUrls. Confirm how the media identifier in the body can be represented as a usable link, then verify that media comments expose the expected metadata or URL when the feature is complete.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

If a subreddit enables media in comments and you upload an image, you get this on the comment create trigger:

{
  id: 't1_nuhy413',
  parentId: 't1_nuhxzxy',
  body: 'test\n\n![img](g1td0ezv7r7g1)',
  author: 't2_hjp31',

  deleted: false,

  permalink: '/r/sky_elder_dev/comments/1poehvw/comment/nuhy413',
  hasMedia: false,
  postId: 't3_1poehvw',
  subredditId: 't5_g3e97a',
  elementTypes: [ 'img', 'text' ],
  mediaUrls: []
}

I was expecting hasMedia to be true and mediaUrls to not be empty. The body contains the media with presumably an id of g1td0ezv7r7g1. This is not enough information to work with–we have to guess the extension. In this case, it's PNG, so that'd be https://i.redd.it/g1td0ezv7r7g1.png.

Please provide a drink link to possible media in comments or alike! Or if there is a way to do this, please let me know!
