Linkify

public class Linkify
extends Object

java.lang.Object
↳	android.text.util.Linkify

Linkify take a piece of text and a regular expression and turns all of the regex matches in the text into clickable links. This is particularly useful for matching things like email addresses, web URLs, etc. and making them actionable. Alone with the pattern that is to be matched, a URL scheme prefix is also required. Any pattern match that does not begin with the supplied scheme will have the scheme prepended to the matched text when the clickable URL is created. For instance, if you are matching web URLs you would supply the scheme http://. If the pattern matches example.com, which does not have a URL scheme prefix, the supplied scheme will be prepended to create http://example.com when the clickable URL link is created.

Fields

sPhoneNumberMatchFilter

Added in API level 1

Linkify.MatchFilter sPhoneNumberMatchFilter

Filters out URL matches that don't have enough digits to be a phone number.

sPhoneNumberTransformFilter

Added in API level 1

Linkify.TransformFilter sPhoneNumberTransformFilter

Transforms matched phone number text into something suitable to be used in a tel: URL. It does this by removing everything but the digits and plus signs. For instance: '+1 (919) 555-1212' becomes '+19195551212'

sUrlMatchFilter

Added in API level 1

Linkify.MatchFilter sUrlMatchFilter

Filters out web URL matches that occur after an at-sign (@). This is to prevent turning the domain name in an email address into a web link.

                Linkify.TransformFilter transformFilter)

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.
`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.
