Links recognition library with FULL unicode support. Focused on high quality link patterns detection in plain text.
Why it's awesome:
npm install linkify-it --save
Browserification is also supported.
import linkifyit from 'linkify-it'; const linkify = linkifyit(); // Reload full tlds list & add unofficial `.onion` domain. linkify .tlds(require('tlds')) // Reload with full tlds list .tlds('onion', true) // Add unofficial `.onion` domain .add('git:', 'http:') // Add `git:` protocol as "alias" .add('ftp:', null) // Disable `ftp:` protocol .set({ fuzzyIP: true }); // Enable IPs in fuzzy links (without schema) console.log(linkify.test('Site github.com!')); // true console.log(linkify.match('Site github.com!')); // [ { // schema: "", // index: 5, // lastIndex: 15, // raw: "github.com", // text: "github.com", // url: "http://github.com", // } ]Example 2. Add twitter mentions handler
linkify.add('@', { validate: function (text, pos, self) { const tail = text.slice(pos); if (!self.re.twitter) { self.re.twitter = new RegExp( '^([a-zA-Z0-9_]){1,15}(?!_)(?=$|' + self.re.src_ZPCc + ')' ); } if (self.re.twitter.test(tail)) { // Linkifier allows punctuation chars before prefix, // but we additionally disable `@` ("@@mention" is invalid) if (pos >= 2 && tail[pos - 2] === '@') { return false; } return tail.match(self.re.twitter)[0].length; } return 0; }, normalize: function (match) { match.url = 'https://twitter.com/' + match.url.replace(/^@/, ''); } });new LinkifyIt(schemas, options)
Creates new linkifier instance with optional additional schemas. Can be called without new
keyword for convenience.
By default understands:
http(s)://...
, ftp://...
, mailto:...
& //...
linksschemas
is an object, where each key/value describes protocol/rule:
:
at the end, skype:
for example). linkify-it
makes sure that prefix is not preceded with alphanumeric char.RegExp
(start with ^
, and don't include the link prefix itself), or a validator function which, given arguments text, pos, and self, returns the length of a match in text starting at index pos. pos is the index right after the link prefix. self can be used to access the linkify object to cache data.options
:
http(s)://
head. Default true
.false
.mailto:
prefix. Default true
.true
to terminate link with ---
(if it's considered as long dash).Searches linkifiable pattern and returns true
on success or false
on fail.
Quick check if link MAY BE can exist. Can be used to optimize more expensive .test()
calls. Return false
if link can not be found, true
- if .test()
call needed to know exactly.
Similar to .test()
but checks only specific protocol tail exactly at given position. Returns length of found pattern (0 on fail).
Returns Array
of found link matches or null if nothing found.
Each match has:
//
for protocol-neutral links.Checks if a match exists at the start of the string. Returns Match
(see docs for match(text)
) or null if no URL is at the start. Doesn't work with fuzzy links.
Load (or merge) new tlds list. Those are needed for fuzzy links (without schema) to avoid false positives. By default:
xn--...
) root zones are ok.If that's not enough, you can reload defaults with more detailed zones list.
Add a new schema to the schemas object. As described in the constructor definition, key
is a link prefix (skype:
, for example), and value
is a String to alias to another schema, or an Object with validate
and optionally normalize
definitions. To disable an existing rule, use .add(key, null)
.
Override default options. Missed properties will not be changed.
