I am tring to find all links in a string and then hyperlink them
like this js lib https://github.com/bryanwoods/autolink-js
i tried to use alot of regex but i always got too many errors
http://play.golang.org/p/iQiccXvFiB
i don't know if go has a different regex syntax
so, what regex that works in go that is good to match urls in strings
thanks
Use back-ticks instead of double-quotes for your string literals. Back-slashes inside double-quotes start escape sequences, which you don't need/want for this use case.
Additionally, how did you expect this to work?
"<a href="$0">$0</a>"
You can use xurls:
import "mvdan.cc/xurls"
func main() {
xurls.Relaxed().FindString("Do gophers live in golang.org?")
// "golang.org"
xurls.Relaxed().FindAllString("foo.com is http://foo.com/.", -1)
// ["foo.com", "http://foo.com/"]
xurls.Strict().FindAllString("foo.com is http://foo.com/.", -1)
// ["http://foo.com/"]
}
