Options #
You can pass LinkifyOptions to the linkify method to change the humanization of URLs (turning https://example.com to example.com):
linkify("https://cretezy.com");
// [UrlElement: 'https://cretezy.com' (cretezy.com)]

linkify("https://cretezy.com", options: LinkifyOptions(humanize: false));
// [UrlElement: 'https://cretezy.com' (https://cretezy.com)]

humanize: Removes http/https from shown URLs
removeWww: Removes www. from shown URLs
looseUrl: Enables loose URL parsing (should parse most URLs such as abc.com/xyz)

defaultToHttps: When used with [looseUrl], default to https instead of http

excludeLastPeriod: Excludes . at end of URLs

Linkifiers #
You can pass linkifiers to linkify as such:
linkify("@cretezy", linkifiers: [UserTagLinkifier()]);

Available linkifiers:

EmailLinkifier
UrlLinkifier
PhoneNumberLinkifier
UserTagLinkifier

Custom Linkifier #
You can write custom linkifiers for phone numbers or other types of links. Look at the URL linkifier for an example.
This is the flow:

Calls parse in the linkifier with a list of LinkifyElement. This starts as [TextElement(text)]
Your parsers then splits each element into it's parts. For example, [TextElement("Hello https://example.com")] would become [TextElement("Hello "), UrlElement("https://example.com")]
Each parsers is ran in order of how they are passed to the main linkify function. By default, this is URL and email linkifiers
