Automatic url linking

[dec0dOS]

Hello! Thanks for the awesome project!
Is it possible to add automatic url linking to the rich-markdown-editor editor?

I've tried to add a custom embed but it is doesn't work as expected.

class Link extends React.Component {
    render() {
        const { attrs } = this.props;

        return (
            "<" + attrs.href + ">"
        );
    }
}
const link = {
    matcher: url => {
        return true;
    },
    component: Link
}

Hi, automatic linking is already included in the editor – it is only triggered on paste at the moment to prevent link-look-a-like's from being interpreted, it's very unusual for someone to type on a full url manually.

Thanks for quick reply! But is it possible to enable it? I need to load raw markdown file.

A url in markdown should not be interpreted as a link unless it is marked as such, there are two ways to do so in markdown, either the traditional:

[title](http://www.google.com)

or shorthand:

<http://www.google.com>

I'd recommend pre-processing the markdown to introduce the shorthand characters before loading into the editor as being the easiest option
