# Linkify
Finding and linkifying things that look like links.
It focuses on: a main use case, short and fast code, and code-sharing between backend and frontend.
This package works for multiple languages, right now php and js.
## Install
[Use Composer](http://getcomposer.org/). And use require to get the latest stable version:
```
composer require alsvanzelf/linkify:dev-master
```
## Features
The basics:
- Anything that starts with `http://`, `https://` or `www.`
- No support for ftp, email addresses, basic auth, and other edge cases.
- No advanced validation, for example real tld's.
- Adds `http://` for the href when it was not given in the text.
Things that work:
- Case insensitive
- Unicode
- Paths, query strings, hashes, and other allowed characters
- Urls starting/ending a line or the whole string
- Not including punctuation after the url
- Urls enclosed in brackets
- Urls with brackets inside the url
Things that -currently- do not work:
- Urls which contain one of: @ |
## Usage
``` php
$linkifier = new alsvanzelf\linkify\linkify();
$linkified = $linkifier->linkify($plain);
```
``` js
var linkified = linkify(plain);
```
Note the input string should NOT contain html to prevent XSS.
As afterwards one can not differentiate the added anchors from existing html.
