Public functions

addLinks

Added in 1.1.0

java-static fun addLinks(text: Spannable, mask: Int): Boolean

Scans the text of the provided Spannable and turns all occurrences of the link types indicated in the mask into clickable links. If the mask is nonzero, it also removes any existing URLSpans attached to the Spannable, to avoid problems if you call it repeatedly on the same text.

Parameters
`text: Spannable`	Spannable whose text is to be marked-up with links
`mask: Int`	Mask to define which kinds of links will be searched.

Returns
`Boolean`	True if at least one link is found and applied.

Added in 1.1.0

java-static fun addLinks(text: TextView, mask: Int): Boolean

Scans the text of the provided TextView and turns all occurrences of the link types indicated in the mask into clickable links. If matches are found the movement method for the TextView is set to LinkMovementMethod.

Parameters
`text: TextView`	TextView whose text is to be marked-up with links
`mask: Int`	Mask to define which kinds of links will be searched.

Returns
`Boolean`	True if at least one link is found and applied.

addLinks

Added in 1.1.0

java-static fun addLinks(text: Spannable, pattern: Pattern, scheme: String?): Boolean

Applies a regex to a Spannable turning the matches into links.

Parameters
`text: Spannable`	Spannable whose text is to be marked-up with links
`pattern: Pattern`	Regex pattern to be used for finding links
`scheme: String?`	URL scheme string (eg `http://`) to be prepended to the links that do not start with this scheme.

Added in 1.1.0

java-static fun addLinks(text: TextView, pattern: Pattern, scheme: String?): Unit

Applies a regex to the text of a TextView turning the matches into links. If links are found then UrlSpans are applied to the link text match areas, and the movement method for the text is changed to LinkMovementMethod.

Parameters
`text: TextView`	TextView whose text is to be marked-up with links
`pattern: Pattern`	Regex pattern to be used for finding links
`scheme: String?`	URL scheme string (eg `http://`) to be prepended to the links that do not start with this scheme.

addLinks

Added in 1.1.0

java-static fun addLinks(
    spannable: Spannable,
    pattern: Pattern,
    scheme: String?,
    matchFilter: Linkify.MatchFilter?,
    transformFilter: Linkify.TransformFilter?
): Boolean

Applies a regex to a Spannable turning the matches into links.

Parameters
`spannable: Spannable`	Spannable whose text is to be marked-up with links
`pattern: Pattern`	Regex pattern to be used for finding links
`scheme: String?`	URL scheme string (eg `http://`) to be prepended to the links that do not start with this scheme.
`matchFilter: Linkify.MatchFilter?`	The filter that is used to allow the client code additional control over which pattern matches are to be converted into links.
`transformFilter: Linkify.TransformFilter?`	Filter to allow the client code to update the link found.

Returns
`Boolean`	True if at least one link is found and applied.

Parameters
`text: TextView`	TextView whose text is to be marked-up with links

addLinks

Added in 1.1.0

Applies a regex to a Spannable turning the matches into links.

Parameters
`spannable: Spannable`	Spannable whose text is to be marked-up with links.
`pattern: Pattern`	Regex pattern to be used for finding links.
`defaultScheme: String?`	The default scheme to be prepended to links if the link does not start with one of the `schemes` given.
