  • exclude_id - Set to an element id when you don't want urls auto linked in the html of the give element (default: false)
  • email - link email links (default: false)
  • mention - link @mentions (when true, requires mention_prefix or mention_handler options to be set) (default: false)
  • mention_prefix - a prefix to build a link for a mention (example: https://example.com/user/, default: nil)
  • mention_handler - a custom handler to validate and format a mention (default: nil)

  • validate_tld: true - Set to false to disable TLD validation for urls/emails, also can be set to :no_scheme to validate TLDs only for urls without a scheme (e.g example.com will be validated, but http://example.loki won't)
  • iodata - Set to true to return iodata as a result, or :safe for iodata with linkified anchor tags wrapped in Phoenix.HTML :safe tuples (removes need for further sanitization)
  • href_handler: nil - a custom handler to process a url before it is set as the link href, useful for generating exit links
