Question

Does anyone have suggestions for detecting URLs in a set of strings?

arrayOfStrings.forEach(function(string){
  // detect URLs in strings and do something sw

This library on NPM looks like it is pretty comprehensive https://www.npmjs.com/package/linkifyjs

Linkify is a small yet comprehensive JavaScript plugin for finding URLs in plain-text and converting them to HTML links. It works with all valid URLs and email addresses.
