    Intelligent link recognition, made easy

    Package Exports

    • linkifyjs-for-md

    This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (linkifyjs-for-md) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

    Features

    • Accuracy
      Linkify uses a (close to) complete list of valid top-level domains to ensure that only valid URLs and email addresses are matched.
    • Speed
      Each string is analyzed exactly once to detect every kind of linkable entity
    • Extensibility
      Linkify is designed to be fast and lightweight, but comes with a powerful plugin API that lets you detect even more information like #hashtags and @mentions.
    • Small footprint
      Linkify and its jQuery interface clock in at approximately 15KB minified (5KB gzipped) - approximately 50% the size of Twitter Text
    • Modern implementation
      Linkify is written in ECMAScript6 and compiles to ES5 for modern JavaScript runtimes.
      • Linkify is compatible with all modern browsers, as well as Internet Explorer 9 and up.

    <script src="linkify-plugin-hashtag.amd.js"></script> <!-- optional -->
    <script src="linkify-element.amd.js"></script>

    Browser globals

    <script src="react.js"></script>
    <script src="react-dom.js"></script>
    <script src="linkify.js"></script>
    <script src="linkify-react.js"></script>
    linkify.test('dev@example.com'); // true

    Browser Support

    Linkify works on all modern browsers.

    Linkify natively supports Internet Explorer 9 and above. Internet Explorer 8 is unofficially supported with a polyfill.

    You can use either es5-shim (sham also required) or the provided linkify-polyfill.js:

    <script src="jquery.js"></script>
    
    <!--[if IE 8]>
    <script src="linkify-polyfill.js"></script>
    <![endif]-->
    <script src="linkify.js"></script>
    <script src="linkify-jquery.js"></script>

    Node.js Support

    Linkify is tested on Node.js 8 and up. Older versions are unofficially supported.

    Caveats

    The core linkify library (excluding plugins) attempts to find emails and URLs that match RFC specifications. However, it doesn't always get it right.

    Here are a few of the known issues.

    • Non-standard email local parts delimited by " (quote characters)
      • Emails with quotes in the localpart are detected correctly, unless the quotes contain certain characters like @.
    • Slash characters in email addresses
    • Non-latin domains or TLDs are not supported (support may be added via plugin in the future)
