xurls

Extract urls from text using regular expressions.

go get -u github.com/mvdan/xurls

import "github.com/mvdan/xurls"

func main() {
    xurls.Relaxed.FindString("Do gophers live in golang.org?")
    // "golang.org"
    xurls.Strict.FindAllString("foo.com is http://foo.com/.", -1)
    // []string{"http://foo.com/"}
}

Relaxed is around five times slower than Strict since it does more work to find the URLs without relying on the scheme:
