Input

The method takes 2 arguments with an optional third and fourth.

First argument is the provider, the options are 'fb', 'tw', 'li', 'em'.

fb = facebook
tw = twitter
li = linkedIn
em = email

Second argument is the link you wish to share eg. 'https://github.com/Alex61NN5/easy-social-share-links'

Third argument is optional and will work will all providers except for fb as of writing this facebook does not have a standard way to add text to a share link (if this ever changes please submit a pull request). The third argument is some text that will go before the link in either a tweet or linkedIn share, for em it will become the subject of the email.

Fourth Argument is optional and will only work when using 'em' which is emailBody, this is some text you can write before the link is shared in the email.
