Text::AutoLink - Automatically Linkfy
use Text::AutoLink; my $auto = Text::AutoLink->new; my $text = $auto->parse_string('http://search.cpan.org'); # '<a href="http://search.cpan.org">http://search.cpan.org</a>' my $auto = Text::AutoLink->new( plugins => [ 'Text::AutoLink::Plugin::HTTP' Text::AutoLink::Plugin::FTP->new(%args) ] );
Text::AutoLink is a module inspired by Text::Hatena. I just wanted to automatically make HTML links in arbitrary text that is not in Text::Hatena format, so here it is.
Text::AutoLink is designed such that it can handle plain text or HTML text, with the focus on allowing arbitrary plugins to handle the transformation.
Creates a new Text::AutoLink object.
You may specify the list of plugins that you want to apply on a text. If you don't specify this parameter, Text::AutoLink will include all the plugins that are available under Text::AutoLink::Plugin namespace.
Returns the list of plugins that are associated with this instance.
Parses the given string and auto-links strings that are not already linked. Returns the modified string.
Parses the given file.
Parses the given file handle.
This is alpha quality release. Proceed at your own peril. Patches, ideas welcome.
Text::AutoLink internally uses HTML::TreeBuilder, so the resulting text may slightly be different from the input. In my experience this is usually not a problem, but if you are being strict it may bite you.
