# Permissive Autolinks

Standard autolinks (as per CommonMark specification) have to be decorated with
`<` and `>` so for example:

```````````````````````````````` example
<mailto:john.doe@gmail.com>
<https://example.com>
.
<p><a href="mailto:john.doe@gmail.com">mailto:john.doe@gmail.com</a>
<a href="https://example.com">https://example.com</a></p>
````````````````````````````````

With flags `MD_FLAG_PERMISSIVEURLAUTOLINKS`, `MD_FLAG_PERMISSIVEWWWAUTOLINKS`
and `MD_FLAG_PERMISSIVEEMAILAUTOLINKS`, MD4C is able also to recognize autolinks
without those marks.

Example of permissive autolinks follows:

```````````````````````````````` example
john.doe@gmail.com
https://www.example.com
www.example.com
.
<p><a href="mailto:john.doe@gmail.com">john.doe@gmail.com</a>
<a href="https://www.example.com">https://www.example.com</a>
<a href="http://www.example.com">www.example.com</a></p>
.
--fpermissive-email-autolinks
--fpermissive-url-autolinks
--fpermissive-www-autolinks
````````````````````````````````

However as this syntax also brings some more danger of false positives, more
strict rules apply to what characters may or may not form such autolinks.
When a need arises to use a link which does not satisfy these restrictions,
standard Markdown autolinks have to be used.

First and formost, these autolinks have to be delimited from surrounded text,
i.e. whitespace, beginning/end of line, or very limited punctuation must
precede and follow respectively.

Therefore these are not autolinks because `:` precedes or follows:

```````````````````````````````` example
:john.doe@gmail.com
:https://www.example.com
:www.example.com
.
<p>:john.doe@gmail.com
:https://www.example.com
:www.example.com</p>
.
--fpermissive-email-autolinks
--fpermissive-url-autolinks
--fpermissive-www-autolinks
````````````````````````````````

Allowed punctuation right before autolink includes only opening brackets `(`,
`{` or `[`:

```````````````````````````````` example
[john.doe@gmail.com
(https://www.example.com
{www.example.com
.
<p>[<a href="mailto:john.doe@gmail.com">john.doe@gmail.com</a>
(<a href="https://www.example.com">https://www.example.com</a>
{<a href="http://www.example.com">www.example.com</a></p>
.
--fpermissive-email-autolinks
--fpermissive-url-autolinks
--fpermissive-www-autolinks
````````````````````````````````

Correspondingly, the respective closing brackets may follow the autolinks.

```````````````````````````````` example
john.doe@gmail.com]
https://www.example.com)
www.example.com}
.
<p><a href="mailto:john.doe@gmail.com">john.doe@gmail.com</a>]
<a href="https://www.example.com">https://www.example.com</a>)
<a href="http://www.example.com">www.example.com</a>}</p>
.
--fpermissive-email-autolinks
--fpermissive-url-autolinks
--fpermissive-www-autolinks
````````````````````````````````

Some other punctuation characters are also allowed after the autolink so that
the autolinks may appear at the end of a sentence or clause (`.`, `!`, `?`,
`,`, `;`):

```````````````````````````````` example
Have you ever visited http://zombo.com?
.
<p>Have you ever visited <a href="http://zombo.com">http://zombo.com</a>?</p>
.
--fpermissive-url-autolinks
````````````````````````````````

Markdown emphasis mark can also precede (but only opening mark) or follow
(only closer mark):

```````````````````````````````` example
You may contact me at **john.doe@example.com**.
.
<p>You may contact me at <strong><a href="mailto:john.doe@example.com">john.doe@example.com</a></strong>.</p>
.
--fpermissive-email-autolinks
````````````````````````````````

However the following is not, because in this example `*` is literal `*` and
such punctuation is not allowed before the autolink:

```````````````````````````````` example
*john.doe@example.com

john.doe@example.com*
.
<p>*john.doe@example.com</p>
<p>john.doe@example.com*</p>
.
--fpermissive-email-autolinks
````````````````````````````````

## Permissive URL Autolinks

Permissive URL autolinks (`MD_FLAG_PERMISSIVEURLAUTOLINKS`) are formed
by mandatory URL scheme, mandatory host, optional path, optional query and
optional fragment.

The permissive URL autolinks recognize only `http://`, `https://` and `ftp://`
as the scheme:

```````````````````````````````` example
https://example.com
http://example.com
ftp://example.com

ssh://example.com
.
<p><a href="https://example.com">https://example.com</a>
<a href="http://example.com">http://example.com</a>
<a href="ftp://example.com">ftp://example.com</a></p>
<p>ssh://example.com</p>
.
--fpermissive-url-autolinks
````````````````````````````````

The host is a sequence made of alphanumerical characters, `.`, `-` and `_`.
It has to include at least two components delimited with `.`, last component
has to have at least two characters, and occurrence of `.`, `-` and `_` has to
be immediately preceded and followed with a letter or digit.

The host specification may optionally be followed with path. Path begins with
character `/` and uses it also for delimiting path components. Every path
component is made of alhanumerical characters and `.`, `-`, `_`. Once again,
any occurrence of `.`, `-`, `_` has to be surrounded with alphanumerical
character.

```````````````````````````````` example
https://example.com/images/branding/logo_272x92.png
.
<p><a href="https://example.com/images/branding/logo_272x92.png">https://example.com/images/branding/logo_272x92.png</a></p>
.
--fpermissive-url-autolinks
````````````````````````````````

Then optionally query may follow. The query is made of `?` and then with
alhanumerical characters, `&`, `.`, `-`, `+`, `_`, `=`, `(` and `)`. Once again any
of those non-alhanumerical characters has to be surrounded with alpha-numerical
characters, and also brackets `(` have to be balanced `)`.

```````````````````````````````` example
https://www.google.com/search?q=md4c+markdown
.
<p><a href="https://www.google.com/search?q=md4c+markdown">https://www.google.com/search?q=md4c+markdown</a></p>
.
--fpermissive-url-autolinks
````````````````````````````````

And finally there may be an optional fragment.

```````````````````````````````` example
https://example.com#fragment
.
<p><a href="https://example.com#fragment">https://example.com#fragment</a></p>
.
--fpermissive-url-autolinks
````````````````````````````````

And finally one complex example:

```````````````````````````````` example
http://commonmark.org

(Visit https://encrypted.google.com/search?q=Markup+(business))

Anonymous FTP is available at ftp://foo.bar.baz.
.
<p><a href="http://commonmark.org">http://commonmark.org</a></p>
<p>(Visit <a href="https://encrypted.google.com/search?q=Markup+(business)">https://encrypted.google.com/search?q=Markup+(business)</a>)</p>
<p>Anonymous FTP is available at <a href="ftp://foo.bar.baz">ftp://foo.bar.baz</a>.</p>
.
--fpermissive-url-autolinks
````````````````````````````````


## Permissive WWW Autolinks

Permissive WWW autolinks (`MD_FLAG_PERMISSIVEWWWAUTOLINKS`) are very similar
to the permissive URL autolinks. Actually the only difference is that instead
of providing an explicit scheme, they have to begin with `www.`.

```````````````````````````````` example
www.google.com/search?q=Markdown
.
<p><a href="http://www.google.com/search?q=Markdown">www.google.com/search?q=Markdown</a></p>
.
--fpermissive-www-autolinks
````````````````````````````````


## Permissive E-mail Autolinks

Permissive E-mail autolinks (`MD_FLAG_PERMISSIVEEMAILAUTOLINKS`) impose the
following limitations to the e-mail addresses:

1. The username (before the `@`) can only use alphanumerical characters and
   characters `.`, `-`, `_` and `+`. However every such non-alphanumerical
   character must be immediately preceded and followed by an alphanumerical
   character.

   For example this is not an auto-link because of that double underscore `__`.

   ```````````````````````````````` example
   john__doe@example.com
   .
   <p>john__doe@example.com</p>
   .
   --fpermissive-email-autolinks
   ````````````````````````````````

2. Same rules for domain as for URL and WWW autolinks apply.
