All of its functionality now exists in [`league/commonmark`](https://github.com/thephpleague/commonmark) 1.3+ under the `League\CommonMark\Extension\Autolink` namespace, so you should upgrade to that version and use that bundled extension instead of this one. Overview -------- [](#overview) This extension adds [GFM-style autolinking](https://github.github.com/gfm/#autolinks-extension-) to the [`league/commonmark` Markdown parser for PHP](https://github.com/thephpleague/commonmark). It automatically link URLs and email addresses even when the CommonMark `` autolink syntax is not used. It also provides a parser to autolink `@mentions` to Twitter, Github, or any custom service you wish, though this is disabled by default. Install ------- [](#install) Via Composer ``` $ composer require league/commonmark-ext-autolink ``` Usage ----- [](#usage) Configure your `Environment` as usual and simply add the `AutolinkExtension` provided by this package: ``` use League\CommonMark\CommonMarkConverter; use League\CommonMark\Environment; use League\CommonMark\Ext\Autolink\AutolinkExtension; // Obtain a pre-configured Environment with all the CommonMark parsers/renderers ready-to-go $environment = Environment::createCommonMarkEnvironment(); // Add this extension $environment->addExtension(new AutolinkExtension()); // Instantiate the converter engine and start converting some Markdown! $converter = new CommonMarkConverter([], $environment); echo $converter->convertToHtml('I successfully installed the https://github.com/thephpleague/commonmark-ext-autolink extension!'); ``` `@mention` Autolinking ---------------------- [](#mention-autolinking) This extension also provides functionality to automatically link "mentions" like `@colinodell` to Twitter, Github, or any other site of your choice! For Twitter: ``` use League\CommonMark\Environment; use League\CommonMark\Ext\Autolink\InlineMentionParser; $environment = Environment::createCommonMarkEnvironment(); $environment->addInlineParser(InlineMentionParser::createTwitterHandleParser()); // TODO: Instantiate your converter and convert some Markdown ``` For GitHub: ``` use League\CommonMark\Environment; use League\CommonMark\Ext\Autolink\InlineMentionParser; $environment = Environment::createCommonMarkEnvironment(); $environment->addInlineParser(InlineMentionParser::createGithubHandleParser()); // TODO: Instantiate your converter and convert some Markdown ``` Or configure your own custom one: ``` use League\CommonMark\Environment; use League\CommonMark\Ext\Autolink\InlineMentionParser; $environment = Environment::createCommonMarkEnvironment(); $environment->addInlineParser(new InlineMentionParser('https://www.example.com/users/%s/profile')); // TODO: Instantiate your converter and convert some Markdown ``` When creating your own, you can provide two parameters to the constructor: - A URL template where `%s` is replaced with the username (required) - A regular expression to parse and validate the username (optional - defaults to `'/^[A-Za-z0-9_]+(?!\w)/'`) Changelog --------- [](#changelog) Please see [CHANGELOG](CHANGELOG.md) for more information what has changed recently.
