text-to-link
text-to-link is a small JavaScript and npm module that takes a string of text, finds URLs within it, and hyperlinks them.
Basic Usage
text-to-link adds an autoLink() method to JavaScript's String prototype, so you can use it on any JavaScript string. Take a look at the tests, but essentially, after including either autolink.js or autolink-min.js to your page, it works like this:
// Inputlet textTolink = // Output"This is a link to Google <a href='http://google.com'>http://google.com</a>"
Additional Options
You can pass any additional HTML attributes to the anchor tag with a JavaScript object, like this:
// Inputlet textTolink = // Output"This is a link to Google <a href='http://google.com' target='_blank' rel='nofollow' id='1'>http://google.com</a>"
Callback
Callback option can be used to redefine how links will be rendered.
// Inputlet textTolink = // Output"This is a link to image <img src='http://example.com/logo.png'>"
