BREAKING CHANGES

• React, jQuery and Element interfaces moved to dedicated packages at linkify-react,linkify-jquery and linkify-element respectively:
• Remove default class="linkified" from all discovered links. Opt back in by setting the className option:

  linkifyStr(str, { className: 'linkified' })
  

• Remove default target="_blank" attribute for discovered URLs. Opt back in by setting the target option:

  linkifyHtml(str, {
    target: (href, type) => type === 'url' && '_blank'
  })
  

• React component: Remove outer <span> tag wrapper in favour of tag-less React.Fragment for React >=16. To opt back-in, set tagName='span':

  <Linkify tagName='span'>{content}</Linkify>
  

• AMD module interface is no longer provided. Use an ESM bundler instead.
• Plugins imported after linkify is called on a string for the first time will not longer work. Import all plugins before calling a linkify core or interface function.
