get-urls

Get all URLs in a string

The URLs will be normalized.

Do not use this for any kind of security-related validation.

Please note the known limitation. You can work around this by setting requireSchemeOrWww to true.

Install

npm install get-urls

Usage

import getUrls from 'get-urls';

const text = 'Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, //sindresorhus.com consectetuer adipiscing http://yeoman.io elit.';

getUrls(text);
//=> Set {'http://sindresorhus.com', 'http://yeoman.io'}
