autoLink in XML?

[jesichakirkland]

Hi,
so is there any equivalent to android:autoLink in RichEditor?
or anyone know how to open new webview when a link is clicked?
Thankyou

Were you able to resolve this issue ?

no i didn't. i just set the text to be copyable in android so that the user can copy the link by themself...

` @OverRide
public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url) {

        String decode;
        try {
                **url = view.getHitTestResult().getExtra();**
            decode = URLDecoder.decode(url, AppConstants.ENCRYPTION_CHAR_FORMAT_UTF8);
        } catch (UnsupportedEncodingException e) {
            // No handling
            return false;
        }

        if (TextUtils.indexOf(url, CALLBACK_SCHEME) == 0) {
            callback(decode);
            return true;
        } else if (TextUtils.indexOf(url, STATE_SCHEME) == 0) {
            stateCheck(decode);
            return true;
        }

        if (url.startsWith("http:https://") || url.startsWith("https://")) {
            Intent i = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
            i.setData(Uri.parse(url));
            context.startActivity(i);
            return true;
        }

        if (url.startsWith("file:https:///android_asset/")) {
            String newUrl = url.substring("file:https:///android_asset/".length());
            Intent i = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
            i.setData(Uri.parse("http:https://" + newUrl));
            context.startActivity(i);
            return true;
        }

        return super.shouldOverrideUrlLoading(view, url);
    }
}`

using this i was able to click the url and open it in webview

Where to write this code ?
do I need to add this library as a module and change its override method ?

[AkashAndi]

@nikitrivedii I am also facing the same issue. Please could you tell where to write this code?

[fukemy]

always trigger shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, WebResourceRequest request)
not shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url), so i can not get url

[fukemy]

the request.url always return :https://re-state
