README

terminal-link

Create clickable links in the terminal

Install

npm install terminal-link

Usage

import terminalLink from 'terminal-link';

const link = terminalLink('My Website', 'https://sindresorhus.com');
console.log(link);

API

terminalLink(text, url, options?)

Create a link for use in stdout.

Supported terminals.

For unsupported terminals, by default the link will be printed as plain text with a space separator: My website https://sindresorhus.com.

text

Type: string

Text to linkify.

url

Type: string

URL to link to.

options

Type: object

fallback

Type: function | boolean

Override the default fallback. The function receives the text and url as parameters and is expected to return a string.

If set to false, the text will be returned as-is when a terminal is unsupported.

terminalLink.isSupported

Type: boolean

Check whether the terminal's stdout supports links.

Prefer just using the default fallback or the fallback option whenever possible.

terminalLink.stderr(text, url, options?)

Create a link for use in stderr.

Same arguments as terminalLink().

terminalLink.stderr.isSupported

Type: boolean

Check whether the terminal's stderr supports links.

Prefer just using the default fallback or the fallback option whenever possible.
