- > Detect whether a terminal emulator supports hyperlinks
-
- Terminal emulators are [starting to support hyperlinks](https://gist.github.com/egmontkob/eb114294efbcd5adb1944c9f3cb5feda). While many terminals have long detected URL's and linkified them, allowing you to Command-Click or Control-Click them to open a browser, you were forced to print the long unsightly URL's on the screen. As of spring 2017 [a few terminals](https://gist.github.com/egmontkob/eb114294efbcd5adb1944c9f3cb5feda) began supporting HTML like links, where the link text and destination could be specified separately.
-
- This module allows you to detect if hyperlinks are supported in the current Terminal.
-
- As this is a new development, we anticipate the list of supported Terminals to grow rapidly. Please open an issue or submit a PR as new Terminals implement support.
-
- ## Install
-
- ```
- $ npm install supports-hyperlinks
- ```
-
-
- ## Usage
-
- ```js
- const supportsHyperlinks = require('supports-hyperlinks');
-
- if (supportsHyperlinks.stdout) {
- console.log('Terminal stdout supports hyperlinks');
- }
-
- if (supportsHyperlinks.stderr) {
- console.log('Terminal stderr supports hyperlinks');
- }
- ```
-
- ## API
-
- Returns an `Object` with a `stdout` and `stderr` property for testing either streams. Each property is a `boolean`, indicating whether or not hyperlinks are supported.
-
- ## Info
-
- Obeys the `--no-hyperlinks`, `--hyperlink=always`, and `--hyperlink=never` CLI flags.
-
- Can be overridden by the user with the flags `--hyperlinks=always` and `--no-hyperlinks`. For situations where using those flags are not possible, add the environment variable `FORCE_HYPERLINK=1` to forcefully enable hyperlinks or `FORCE_HYPERLINK=0` to forcefully disable. The use of `FORCE_HYPERLINK` overrides all other hyperlink support checks.
